One Must Begin, But Real Leaders FINISH

Nearly all of us, have come into contact, or know someone, who is well - meaning, has some excellent ideas and/ or thoughts, and consistently begins important, quality projects, but almost never, brings them to fruition! While this is often an issue in one's everyday life, it often becomes both a fault, and a weakness, when exhibited by someone in a position of leadership! After four decades of identifying, qualifying, training, developing and consulting, to thousands of actual and/ or potential leaders, I've learned, one of the first, easiest identify differences between effective, meaningful leaders, and the rest of the pack, is, the best leaders are always those that FINISH what they start! While it's essential to begin, it has to go somewhere, or it becomes irrelevant!

1. Face facts; find: Don't become a lost leader, but seek to find your way, from the searching and/ or discovering stages, to bringing something to fruition! To do so, you must openly and thoroughly research and face facts, and proceed to address the needs, etc. The difference, often, between those who successfully achieve, and others, is the first group, finds a way, to get things done, regardless of obstacles and/ or challenges, which may fall in their path!

2. Ideas; ideology; improve: If one in a leadership position has good ideas, but if these are not in sync with the ideology and/ or mission of the organization, they probably will not produce desirable results! Great leaders focus on ways to improve their group, and prioritize needs, concerns, etc, while maintaining a big - picture, mentality!

3. Needs; nuances: Nearly every group has some unique characteristics, heritage, membership, mission, etc. Therefore, address the best way to serve these, while enhancing the group, by effectively utilizing the relevant nuances! True leadership is about focusing on needs!

4. Institute; integrity: Are the plans and/ or ideas, you seek to institute, in the best long - term interests, of the group, you serve? Are you someone who will maintain absolute integrity, rather than taking shortcuts, or seeking additional popularity?

5. Solutions; strengthening; sustainable system: Will you seek solutions, and do all you can, to put them in place, or will you merely articulate ideas, without following through? Will you be a strengthening, positive leader, who seeks to elicit greater involvement from constituents? How will you create, develop, and implement, the most relevant, sustainable system?

6. Head/ heart; make it happen: How will you seek synergies between your logical and emotional components, in order to create and develop, the optimum, head/ heart balance? Will you persist and persevere, until you make it happen?

It's necessary to start, but the defining moment, for quality leaders, is their ability and willingness, to FINISH! Are you prepared for this responsibility?

Kecemburuan semacam ini

Jacey melemparkan cangkir kopi kaca, (Mug Kaca Berinsulasi Dinding Ganda Zwilling), melintasi dapur. Itu menghantam dinding yang baru dicat (Behr, Sweet Coconut Milk, M230), dan hancur menjadi triliunan kepingan. "Inilah yang telah kamu lakukan pada kami!" teriaknya, suaranya berderak karena cemburu, kuku jarinya yang terawat (Orly Cold As Ice - perawatan bernapas + warna) menusuk udara ke arah tumpukan puing-puing kaca. Blayne menundukkan kepalanya, dagu keduanya mengenai dadanya terlebih dahulu. "Maaf, sayang," gumamnya. "Maaf?! Maaf!" Dia mengambil sekotak Wheat Thins dan mengangkatnya di atas kepalanya. "Tolong jangan melempar yang lain!" Blayne memohon, berdiri dari posisi setengah duduk di bangku logam di dapur. Ini adalah bangku yang sangat tidak nyaman (Bangku Meja Grejsi dengan Bingkai Logam), tetapi Jacey menyukai cara logam itu memantulkan sinar matahari di sore hari, jadi itulah yang dia beli. Dia mencondongkan tubuh ke arahnya,...

Thirteenth step

My grandmother attends the church basement on Tuesday evenings. I saw him there among the metal folding chairs and antique coffee pots, his figure trembling under the fluorescent lights that buzzed like dying insects. She wears the same powder blue pullover she was buried in, the one with pearl buttons that catch the light like little moons. Others can't see it, of course. They just feel a sudden chill as they pass by where she is, or smell the ghostly smell of her Shalimar perfume mixing with the smell of burnt coffee that never leaves these rooms. But I see clearly. He's been following me to AA meetings for three months since I got my first white chip after five years of being back in the bottle. "Your grandmother was my godmother in 1985," old Pete told me after tonight's meeting, hands shaking as he poured a seven-pack of Sweet'n Low into his coffee. "Toughest godmother I ever had. She saved my life." "Mine, too," I said, not specif...
