Lesson # 1 : Know your surroundings, and choose the battleground that most suits your strengths

Just as King Leonidas chose the Hot Gates as the perfect location for Sparta’s stand against the Persians.

Do your research and pick an avenue where your skills will thrive and your competition will fall.

Choose a plan of action that highlights your skills while taking away advantages of your predecessors.

Just make sure you cover your back at the goat path! You never know who’s sneaking up behind you!

Lesson # 2 : A handful of well trained soldiers can out-perform thousands of weak ones.

The Spartan 300 stood against the million Persians for days because they were strong, well trained, and powerful.

A well done business, where the owner takes the time to build a community and continually support it has the best chance for success against hundreds of competitors.

Lesson # 3 : Keep your skill set sharp, cause you never know when you might have to defend yourself.

The Spartans were ready to march into battle, with no hesitation. Never stop learning, experimenting, and improving yourself.

The moment you drop your guard, is the same moment your opponents take away your land.

Lesson # 4 : Never retreat, never surrender.Even to the bitter end, King Leonidas and his 300 fought for Greece, never retreating and never surrendering.

A lot of people quit because it gets too tough to maintain consistency or too hard to keep the knowledge up to date.

If you retreat, if you surrender, you’ll never know if a month or two more of hard work might have paid off.

King Leonidas knew that the Ephor were wrong when they advised him to stand down on the eve of battle.

Taking the wrong advice can cut you off from avenues that may be right for you, even if it wasn’t for the person who gave it. Always do what is best for yourself, and never be afraid to experiment. The Gods were all in the same position as you at one point in time. Remember that!

Lesson # 5 : The gods aren’t always right, do what’s best for yourself, above all else.

Lesson # 6 : Constantly adapt to your changing situation, it’s the only way to survive.

Negative thoughts and people, stay away from them.

Lesson # 9 : Every record in destined to be brokenWhen the Persian messenger delivered his ultimatum to King Leonidas, he was cocky and backed himself up by the past accomplishments of the Persian Empire.

While success is great, always look to improve on what you’ve done and never underestimate your competitors.

The world moves so fast that one days champion can be another days failure in the blink of an eye.

Don’t let yourself get kicked into the pit. Be A SPARTAN!! Choice is yours…!

King Leonidas proved that even the seemingly untouchable Xerxes was capable of bleeding after all.

It is easy to look at the true juggernauts in a specific field and think it’s impossible to compete against someone of that size. No one is untouchable, and great ideas rule the world. Be innovative, be cutting edge, and most of all be fearless even in the face of god-like competition.

Lesson # 10 : Even a man-god can bleed.

Spartans had the best understanding as a unit. They know how to back each other.

We as a team must know the same, alone we are like a single finger and together we make a knockout punch

Working in tandem is needed for success.

Lesson # 11 : Together we can throw them out.

Leonidas the king was a great leader but the most important thing was he has people who religiously followed his words.

Respect the experience which is around you. People above you are there to help and guide you.

Remember we all are inter-linked, for a common goal.

Lesson # 12 : A Leader can lead you to Success.

Even in his hideously misshapen form, Ephialtes knew the value of networking. He made friends with Xerxes who ended up helping him to both riches and companionship. Know your strengths and know your weaknesses, and use networking to take advantage of both. If you can’t be successful in one route, look at others. keep your best interests at the forefront of your decision making process.

Lesson # 13 : Even if you’re a hideous, misshapen troll, the right networking can get you riches and women.

The Spartans changed tactics as needed to face down the latest wave of attackers. We must learn how to set up our battle plan that best suits our desired results  This story will always be told not necessarily cause they won but because they were brave. Great leaders are brave and bold not bossy and cold! How about you???
