A good leader is some one who listens to opposing views carefully, and makes sure not to move on until everyone has been heard and that they are all agree on the course of action. I have a very developed bull shit detector and mine will good of from time to time. I can tell right away when someone is pulling a trick to try and convince a group of people of a particular action. Whether it’s pulling the seniority card or the exaggeration card, trust me I can see right through that and when you pull both of those cards in the same argument; I lost a little respect for you. If your argument is a correct one, then you should have to exaggerate things to make your point, oh and by the way, exaggeration is bit like lying. Also using your position to force your ideals on a group of people isn’t only fair, it’s kinda crooked because you’re in a position that people need to trust you.
I will never accept anything a person says with “it’s just the way things are” at the end of their statement. That statement is incorrect. If you are in a position that you have to make excuses for, then you’re not doing good enough. If you can’t control your own situations, then what can you control? If a person goes above your head and does something you didn’t approve, then you fix it and don’t say that’s the way it goes, because you’re the one that makes it go like that.
I’m trying this writing thing for both good and bad days to try and get things off my chest and feel better about all things.
I love when people use their positions to push their ideas/morality/designs on others. I also love when the people go along like sheep in a chute, following each other blindly. I also love when people exaggerate things to make their point/case look better. I also love that when I talk to someone about their argument and I have though more about it than they have. Its particularly fun when I say something that supports their case that they haven’t thought of yet. They act like that’s what they have been trying to tell you the whole time when in reality you just solved there problem for them. Love that! I also love the excessive hand shaking and compliments that said people give you to try and get you to give up your disagreement because they know that if you pushed it, they would lose.
The world isn’t a perfect place, and even the best people get greedy. I guess we all got to keep fighting the good fight.
Stay classy world
