Rosalyn had never been able to bring herself to lie to their children, even if it was occasionally to their benefit. She had a pessimism that had been earned through trials and she knew that it was possible Chacal could fail. There was one factor that would make the difference, and it was the one thing Rosalyn was not sure of. How much did she want it?

Leading from duty was one thing. Leading from desire was another.

Then I'll give you your first lesson now, Rosalyn replied, lifting her posture. You have to know that you deserve it. That you are making calls, and others are trusting you to make them, for a reason. Your doubts don't matter. Theirs do. It was the most valuable thing she'd learned in all of her time at the helm.

She gazed at her daughter encouragingly, making sure that she understood. There were other things, but this was first and foremost.
