Hi There,
Everyday, we get to make decsions in our lives for whatever we do, so we can say in the real sense of it we are already leaders because if we can decide to do something and follow through with it then, we are our own leaders. But the art of following through with what we have decided to do requires discipline on our own part before we can see it come through.
However what makes us great leaders to ourselves is the ability to seperate our emotions from our decisions. and that is a great deal! As an individual,making decisions that are tough on us (e.g probably to stop a bad habit or improve on our skills or develop better charcter, eating less or eating healthy, keeping fit or sometimes even looking good)are actually very difficult and requires discipline, determination and devotion on our part to really make it happen.
What about as a leader to people who are looking up to you and emulating your works,trusting in you?
Here, there is a higher responsiblity because apart from been disciplined as a person you have to ensure your works, path and attitude does not affect someone else and influence them the wrong way.
Another tough aspect is the ability to still express emotions and make sound decisions insipite of the way you feel as a leader: these are tough times and situations where making decisions require only God and Grace.
Nevertheless, it does not matter whether you are a leader of yourself, a younger sister or brother, your family as husband or wife, a CEO at work or even just a member in the office, a choir leader, a pastor, a class rep..whatever your form of position presently, YOU ARE A LEADER! and one way or another your decisions will influence your self and those you are leading.
So the Question here is How sure are you, that the decisions you are making right now are influencing those around you the right way? Think about it and if its not good... Take a U- Turn..............You Need it Now!
Have a Great Week!
Ciao Ciao
