LEADERS WANTED You must be able to work in an uncomfortable environment, and be able to work with little or no support, be able to communicate with a group made up of people who may speak a different language. You may work with people who have strong "street savvy", you may work in a stressful environment wearing many hats and generally leading from the front alone. You need to be resourceful, flexible and have some ingenuity, you must also be able to sell ideas, persuade objectors, cajole resources and convince people who dislike your style of dress, distrust your motivation and may even be trying to con you. You must recognize the high stakes involved and how your choices affect the goal; this position requires good health, a never die attitude and the ability to blend into your environment by being efficient but not highly noticeable or threatening. Leadership is to many an intangible quality, that everyone wants but no one seems to be able to find, people search the world over, they travel hundreds of miles searching for some mystical answer. Leadership is not bought or sold, it cannot be touched or seen, you do not know if some one has it by looking at them, but you will know if they don't when working with them. It lives within us all, it is Alive and changes as you change. If you are lazy it is lazy, if you hone and polish it, you could lead an Army of People to Victory or a Single Person to Magnificence. Leadership is about discovering your own Self-Expression which is tailored to each individual and navigating through your Expression by taking what is useful and discarding what is useless and ultimately gaining experience in yourself.
