Leadership is not magnetic personality, that can just as well be a glib tongue. It is not making friends and influencing people, that is flattery. Leadership is lifting a persons vision to higher sights, the raising of a persons performance to a higher standard, the building of a personality beyond its normal limitations. Peter F. Drucker
Oxygen
Tony Gaskins said that communication is to a relationship like oxygen to life: without it, it dies. Therefore we use our time to communicate with those that matter to us. However, when work is demanding it happens that those who need our communication come second place. This is why we have (or should have) free time, weekends, and holidays. Time to catch up with our family and friends. Indulge in our hobbies. Spending free time is a form of regeneration: our life-batteries are being charged, our motivational drives restored, our inspiration renewed. We step out of our daily routines and do things we normally dont do, as they are always second priority to work. Oxygen keeps us on our feet. Make sure you get plenty of it. Make time to regenerate.
Never tell people how to do things. Tell them what to do and they will surprise you with their ingenuity.
General George Patton
K-quotes
To know that we know what we know, and to know that we do not know what we do not know, that is true knowledge.
