EDIT: Wait a second...how do we know this isn't a mod baiting thread?
Because Barron is a moron that isn't smart enough to bait mods, lol. But really, "Riding the Pickle" doesn't sound like "Look at me!"
About leadership for everyone
The real leader has no need to lead - he is content to point that way.
The final test of a leader is that he leaves behind him in other men the conviction and the will to carry on.... The genius of a good leader is to leave behind him a situation which common sense, without the grace of genius, can deal with successfully.
The quality of leadership, more than any other single factor, determins the success or failure of an organization.
I used to think that running an organization was equivalent to conducting a symphony orchestra. But I don't think that's quite it; it's more like jazz. There is more improvisation.
Hell, there are no rules here--we're trying to accomplish something.
For moderators of bnet
Leadership is understanding people and involving them to help you do a job. That takes all of the good characteristics, like integrity, dedication of purpose, selflessness, knowledge, skill, impiacability, as well as determination to not be common.
Lead and inspire people. Don't try to manage and manipulate people. Inventories can be managed, but people must be lead.
The quality of a person's life is in direct proportion to their commitment to excellence, regardless of their chose field of endeavor.
To end all of egoism: My favorite quote
Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power.
