Today marks the holiday celebration of Freedom Day in South Africa. It celebrates the 20th anniversary of South African democracy. This achievement is due largely to the efforts of many unsung hero’s, yet one who stands out like an icon, is none other than the late Nelson Mandela. 
Madiba as he is affectionately known, was a man who stood for many great ideals. His inner conviction exceeded any doubts about the success and achievement of his goal or objective. Listed below are some “Madiba Ideals” I wish upon you, so that your inner conviction grows making you unstoppable.
VISION – Madiba “saw the future” of a Rainbow Nation. A country for all, at a time when most people resigned to “reality”. Whatever your current status, hold onto that vision of your success and achievement. Imprint it on your mind and remain faithful to it. Don’t waiver, don’t quit, don’t be fooled by others visions for you. Remain true to your vision.
ACTION – Become relentless like Madiba. He pushed his agenda nationally and internationally. Not when he felt like it, but ALL THE TIME. For you to achieve and succeed, you must take massive, consistent and focused actions, congruent with your vision. Even when the skies are grey and there seems to be no glimmer of hope or no victory in sight, keep on keeping on.
COURAGE – Be courageous. There will be many moments dominated by fear in your pursuit of achievement. A brave man, in Madiba’s words “conquers fear”.
BE TENACIOUS – Challenges, difficulties and setbacks can sometimes break the strongest of men. If you keep striking at your goals, achievement will soon start to appear on the horizon. Stick with it…be tenacious.
BELIEVE – Success really is for everyone, if they can rise above their circumstances. Its not for a select few. Rather, it is the select few who believe that it is possible for them. Madiba believed in his blood that it is for everyone. Now you believe…
Whatever your current status, your political persuasion or wherever on the ladder of achievement you find yourself, by living the “Madiba Ideals” you can only excel further and faster. Here is a final point for your inspiration by a great icon, a beacon of hope, a man of truth, justice and wisdom:
“I am fundamentally an optimist. Whether that comes from nature or nurture, I cannot say. Part of being optimistic is keeping one’s head pointed toward the sun, one’s feet moving forward. There were many dark moments when my faith in humanity was sorely tested, but I would not and could not give myself up to despair. That way lays defeat and death” – Nelson Mandela
