By Jairaj Singh, Associate Partner, Lighthouse International

If the events and consequences of Britain’s recent referendum to leave the EU seem a bit complicated then we may have something to help you! A commenter on the Waitbywhy.com site had to explain what it meant to his 7-year-old son and his explanation is a brilliantly simple but wise. Every true legend is able to explain complicated concepts in simple ways and this is a powerful lesson in togetherness for all of us…

It’s not every day that football fans are held up as everyday legends! Especially not at the Euro 2016 football championships where hooliganism has been rife. How refreshing it is then to see Irish football fans going out of their way to clean streets, fix cars and even serenade people on the metro!

As Upworthy quoted yesterday:

This group of Guinness-drinking, song-singing, eye-twinkling Irishmen (and women), have been in France supporting their team in UEFA Euro 2016 (the European football championship).

More importantly, though?

They’ve been going above and beyond to be respectful to the country hosting them and all the people in it.

It’s kind of amazing to watch.

Legends know that one thing is constant in life, change. With the UK leaving the EU it represents a time of uncertainty and many people may consider this a bad thing. However one thing legends do is relish uncertainty, they see it as an opportunity to be creative and to adapt. Go Cardless CEO Hiroki Taekuchi acknowledes the challenges that many new businesses may face, but also shows us that the ones who thrive in this environment will build resiliance. After all, Soichiro Honda built a worldwide motor company (Honda) at a time when his country was devastated by war with America! Read how he overcome massive adversity here…
