In our simple life, we may not notice it but we are already in the process of leadership; at home or even in school. Leadership may seem a BIG word to talk about or even as serious it may get into our nerves but if we think it through, it can be just as simple as we would want it to be if we do it with responsibility.What do we really like in a leader,as the youth of today? We are idealistic individuals. We idolize leaders whom we think meet our standards. We want a leader who is cheerful. This trait easily break the ice and because it is a reflection of optimism and pleasantness, we subconsciously think that it can also be a key to good leadership. And because a cheerful person is naturally friendly and approachable most of the time, it makes it a winning trait of a leader. A person with an interesting or impressive personality can motivate friends and followers to great effort. Howeveer, this must be supplemented with good work if one wishes to be at the top.We also look for a leader who is versatile and multi-talented, who can help us in our interests by providing enough opportunity.A leader who accepts defeat and failure with a smile is the leader that we've always wanted to have. A leader who tries to avoid arguments with others, instead shows diplomacy in his actions. One asset of a leader that can be looked up is when he knows how to control his temper even if the situation demands for the opposite. By being calm, he builds a positive image for himself and wins our confidence to lead us.Another trait that we expect in a leader is his responsible deeds. We often supervise what he does for us and how he is going on with the tasks assign to him.There may be so many qualities that we look for a leader and we even tend to perfectionists at so many instances but for as long as we participate, we move on and grow!

Sorry tsong, kaso wala akong mapiling topic sa blog mo. Angkonti kasi ng mga entries. Tapos puro mga seryosong bagay pa man din lahat. Ung tipong maseselan. Mahirap talagang makahanap ng magaling na leader. the may 2007 Elections is near and I still don’t know who is to vote. Registered voter ako and I am proud about it. Sabi nga ni Mike, wala raw karapatang magreklamo ung mga hindi bumoto. I remember, losyang na losyang to the max ako sa haba ng pila. Anginit pati tapos iba iba na yung amoy ng mga tao. Ako lang yata ang mabango. EHEHE!
i do agree, but i guess that simpliest way to choose a leader is to see how they serve, they should serve by examples for good leaders are good followers. but all of us can be leaders, but we have to do it the right way and the right way, as I have learned from my CF class and of course from life, is to become servant-leaders. jesus christ taught the people not by commanding but by doing what he wants his people to do. he literally washed the feet of his disciples which i think modern day leaders would not do. to all the leaders out there, lead by actions and not by words...
