Leadership??? What the heck is that???
Encarta Dictionary (2009) defines Leadership as “the ability to guide, direct or influence people”.
By priviledge, I have read a few leadership books, and they all seemed to be proposing that some people are destined to be leaders and others are destined to be followers. Well, I dont quite agree with that.
In my opinion, I believe Leadership is taking the lead and influencing others in a particular field and if that’s true, it means anyone and everyone can be a leader.
Do you get? Dont let anyone buzz that you cant be a leader. I believe God has endowed everyone with leadership potential. All we just need to do is work on that potential and be the best in our area of passion and we’ll see our selves taking the lead.
Take a car for example. A car has about 3000 different parts performing different functions. If the battery ever tries to do what the carburettor does, it will be a failure, because it wasnt built for that but it doesnt mean it doesne have potential. So if you find yourself continuously failing, check it out, it doesnt mean one bit that you’re a failure, it only means you either playing at your passion or you’re doing something that isnt your passion at all.
The point i’m making is everyone is a leader. Yes, you are a leader. You may not be good at music, you may not be good at writing, you may not be good at sports, but you’re goot at something. Find your place and be the best there. There is nothing really special about anybody, anybody that seems special only found that passion and developed themselves in it. That’s the key to success, find your passion and develop yourself in it and you’ll soon be the envy of the world around you!!!
