Being a Leader...

Yesterday, I watched movie, I won’t state the title of the movie but I’ll tell you,it’s a good movie.Actually, it’s all about leadership. Wooh! how to become a leader is actually the theme of that movie.hehe! Know what?When I finished watching the movie I just realized that tiny teardrops are falling into my eyes. yes you read it right!I was so touched by that movie.Funny you call! But I feel that I am part of it! Now I know that being a leader is difficult. We might think that it is easy but it not. We might think that it is easy to rule people but its not. We don't know the deepest side of being a leader. Here are some characteristics that a leader be supposed to have...

  1. Being leader must have a purpose and passion to go hand and hand. We must learn first to care deeply. We must be engaged with yourself. It pertains with our body, mind and spirit. Passion is an openness to possibilities and the innate belief that people want to work together to create the best future imaginable. That passion gives us courage!
  2. A leader must be authentic. Being authentic is being genuine. It’s by admitting our shortcomings, recognize strengths and live who you are. JUST BE YOURSELF! We long for genuine, trustworthy interaction where we live and work, and we experience fulfillment when our relationships with others are honest, grounded in the truth of who we are.
  3. A Leader has good reputation or credibility. Your reputation as a credible person develops as a direct result of the trust others have in you to follow through, acting on what you have committed yourself to do. A leader must have ONE WORD!
  4. Ethics. Ethical leaders have at the center of their belief system a high regard for human worth and dignity. They make decisions and take action in accord with these deeply held values and beliefs. Service to others and a commitment to the greater good for more people is the essence of what it means to be ethical. Being ethical is a choice you make when passion, authenticity, and credibility are aligned with a belief system which is grounded in service to the global community.

If you all have these characteristics, then have to be called a leader on your own. :) haha! Just remember that being a leader means knowing who you are at the deepest level.

haha! Hope you Learned..
