Leadership
From the 1990s onwards a lot of mistrust has ocurred relating to governments and history and anything with the stamp of authority. All this is well and good for it is imperative that we question things.

Let us note, however, that ultimately it takes leadership skills to motivate people to do things. It is, ironically perhaps, the nature of this mistrust of authority that itself needs authority to actually go anywhere. Leadership has several different meanings to different people. However, anyone has the potential to be a leader.

A leader isn't an easy job and respect is something that is paramount to the role and earned for good reason. A true leader is not someone who has been offered a position but rather that the position suits them. You may think that to be a leader you have to have physical strength but having this character alone is absurd. What is paramount is the will to be victorious, not for oneself, but for a cause. We have many bad examples of assumed leadership and this has always been the case: true leaders are known by the doers on two counts: one they respect them and second their cause is a just one.

leadership is nothing to be scared of or nothing to be revered. If you have a cause which you think is just; be bold and stand for the victory of it and motivate, keep head-strong and tell people what it is you want telling. Do not dislike people for everyone has their issues and each person only needs a helping hand for them to become a much greater person. Ideas and principles are well and good for the start but its people who get work done; it is teamwork that gets real results.


It is possible; bravery is directly proportional to the risk involved. Aims, virtue and purpose however, lie above leadership; if a cause is just assume leadership; else someone else might not.

Mistrust of leaders goes further back to the Vietnam war, and Water Gate just made it all worse. There are a lot of conspiracy theories out there, but it is true that a lot of support for the gov has declined. Many had a strong belief in the gouvernment when FDR was in power.

Strange, you talk about leading for a just cause and a week later, without any knowledge that you wrote this, I produced something similar, albeit more specific. Perhaps it's something in the air.
