Leadership Mentality

in r2cornell •  last year 

We know a leader is someone who influences a group of people toward the achievement of a goal. The key word is influence. You can't give what you don't have within to others.


I recently noticed that a good leader is a good planner. In life you're either Planning or Playing. Taking positive measures today helps take care of the future expectations. To a non-planner nothing is enough and such person cannot lead effectively.

A non-planner cannot lead because the ability to determine where to go, what to invest in, save and do per time is missing and this is a unique leadership skill that enhances a successful leadership lifestyle. Careful planners lead many to profits.

A leader is not someone that intimidate people to get them towards achieving a goal. Just like a young child cannot be forced to walk because you want to see the child walk quickly, you will rather patiently plan to teach, inspire and encourage the child.

If you use intimidation or guess work on people yet getting result, it might be because the people have no other place to go yet or you are just being lucky.

Luck cannot guarantee continuous success, it's understanding the secret of a process that guarantees continuous desired result in the area of interest.

Many of us often like to use guess work while growing up, there are many times we use intimidation against many other people to get them follow our mindset, lead and desires.

Leadership is the ability to effectively organized a group of people to achieve a common task and goal.

Individuals must be able to plan and be in control of their life before they can lead other's effectively.

This means we should focus on building healthy relationship with our personal life and there will be naturally flow of values to others to others.
