"हतो वा प्राप्स्यसि स्वर्गं जित्वा वा भोक्ष्यसे महीम्।तस्मादुत्तिष्ठ कौन्तेय युद्धाय कृतनिश्चयः॥"

"हतो वा प्राप्स्यसि स्वर्गं जित्वा वा भोक्ष्यसे महीम्।

तस्मादुत्तिष्ठ कौन्तेय युद्धाय कृतनिश्चयः॥"

"O Arjuna, either you will be killed on the battlefield and attain the heavenly planets, or you will conquer and enjoy the earthly kingdom. Therefore, arise with determination, O son of Kunti, and be prepared to fight."

Sri Krishna, in this shloka, is urging Arjuna to face his duty with determination and resolve. He asks Arjuna to endeavour, persevere and not to fear. To keep the spirit high and be resolute.

Just a food for thought for us all transitioning military leaders; our unique blend of leadership, adaptability and integrity (and many more) will undoubtedly carve a path to new heights of achievement.

All we need is to keep marching forward, for "It's not over until it's over!!"
