About a leader

These are some of my thoughts about being a leader - a person who has the ability to:

  1. Take Risk - The willingness to make decisions that might have large negative consequences
  2. Take Responsibility - The desire for authority to make decisions and be held accountable for their outcome
  3. Ensure Competitiveness - The drive and ambition to achieve more than others
  4. Spark Rebellion - The desire to move beyond the status quo and generally accepted alternatives
  5. Not submitting to Impulsiveness - The urge to make attention-grabbing and thrilling final decisions, often very quickly
  6. Be Persistenct - The desire for others and onself to continually drive the decision-making process toward a final resolution
  7. Overcome Fear and uncertainty - The tendency to become worried or concerned wen making a particular decision
  8. Induulge in Self-absorption - The habit of becoming unduly concerned with one's own thoughts, interests, and activities
  9. Not lose Playfulness - The desire for lively, spirited interactions with others in the decision-making process
  10. Promote Education and learning - The need to learn and understand from others about the various issues involved in a decision
  11. Act on Intelligence and facts - The need for rational, highly accurate information
  12. Drive hard Bargains - The willingness to make spur-of-the-moment decisions provided the price is right
  13. Promote Trust - The ability to lift a person who is down and out by giving the person responsibility

The ability to help out people without expecting any returns and not showing it to the world and to the person being helped.That is all I want to say now about a leader.
