Look inside of yourself, first!!!
Too often we are searching for leadership -- at home, at work, in the community, you name it! We don't see leadership. We see colleagues and friends reluctant to step up and assume leadership. And so we lament.
There is a dearth of leadership!
Wait a minute... did we step up?
Or did we appoint ourselves observers of a leaderless world...
Where were we when an opportunity to step up presented itself? Did we look down at the table? Did we avert our eyes?
Did we say... X will do it, I am too busy...
That was probably the reaction of everyone else as well...
When leadership opportunities present themselves, respond! Opportunities exist all around us. It is time to step up and take control when the opening occurs....
Then there will not be a leadership vacuum all around us.... Start with ourselves...We can be leaders. Just do it...
