Lord Mountbatten,s confidence

When Winston Churchill offered Mountbatten the Asian Command in 1943, he asked for 24 hours to ponder the offer. "Why?" Churchill snarled. "Don't you think you can do it?" "Sir," Mountbatten replied. "
I suffer from the congenital weakness of believing that I can do anything"

This is one of the lines that inspire me a lot. Some may call it being over confident or egotistical, i call it sheer excellence. Hats off to both Mountbatten and those lines.

cheers,
