Fear in the face of 
Victory<http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/blogspot/stories/~3/mCPQFh4DYuU/click.phdo?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email>


During the time of Napoleon I, a great French general names La Variere made the 
decision to attack,  even though his troops were largely outnumbered.
He was certain of victory, but he felt his men's fear and wanted to do 
something to cut short their protestations.
On a country road he stopped before an isolated chapel and declared, "I am 
going inside and I will ask for God's help. Then I will come out and flip this 
gold coin. If our Emperor's face appears we will win. If the other side comes 
up heads, then we will lose. And so, my companions, our fate is in the hands of 
destiny."
After a few moments in the chapel, La Variere came out and flipped the coin. 
Napoleon's head appeared. The soldiers shouted and acclaimed their destiny, and 
the entire company's moral was lifted. Convinced that they would be victorious, 
they fought with such bravery that they rapidly won the battle.
After the victory Vermont, one of La Variere's adjutants, said, "Oh Sir, no one 
can change the course of Destiny. This unexpected victory is yet another proof 
of that."
"Who knows, my dear Vermont, who knows," replied the General, and he showed him 
the coin on which Napoleon's head appeared... on both sides!
