Snippet from The 5 Levels of Leadership
Leadership is different steps of becoming a good human. All of us are leaders at some part of our life. At times we are leader of our home, at times at our job and at times some revolutionist trying to bring a change. It is an important trait. It is needed to be learnt to live a meaningful life.
This topic focuses on three major things to make your community a success, where you act at level 5 called as Pinnacle of leadership. (as highlighted in above photo).
1.You are available to help
Help by J W
It does not tire you, helping your community members. You hide a world of despair behind a bright face. You respond, call and listen. You talk less and lift your members. You consider your members, unique and important. Each member, a gold, platinum or silver, is equally respected by you. You do not look at the successes and achievements of your members, but you look at their sincerity. If you find some broken fabrics, you take responsibility to heal them. Some people who lack confidence, you build them. Some who fall behind in finances, you fund them. Some take the step, the jump, towards their goal, you market them. You do not get tired, upset and angry. When they reach you for help, you do not shut them. You put yourself always forward, available.
If you think, it will overburden you and tire you down. You have not yet reached the Pinnacle of leadership. You do not have enough love for your people. You do not, yet, fully believe in yourself.
2. You do not make money off your people
Simple by Bench Accounting
You do not make money off your community. Because you do not need it. You can not lead your community, if you are in greed or you are in want of money. The ingress of money and wealth, corrupts your mission. Your community, is not built to make you rich. It is built to talk, help and get rich together.
Money and rich life, is a by product of becoming a good leader. As you walk this road of selflessness to lift your people, you realise, money only pollutes your goal. It puts dirt on your mission. It drags you down. As soon as you start hating money, it tries to come towards you more. It over takes you. But you need to make sure you keep your doors shut to money and open to people selflessly.
Everyday you set a new Example
Training by William Iven
You lead people by example. Your examples do not get boring and dull. Everyday you take a time out of your busy routine to do one leader-ly step. Everyday you create one meaningful product that puts a smile on your people. You need to prove your mettle.
It takes tremendous amount of hardwork to be able to create examples. At times it takes an hour off your morning snacks or an hour off your night sittings with your family. It takes dedication, focus and sincerity to be able to deliver your promises. Without putting in this hard work, you can not reach the pinnacle of leadership. Without it you can not build a community full of colors and values. Without it, you lack some purpose. If you are not dreaming of reaching the pinnacle, you are failing at answering the questions. Some questions that are hitting you down, stopping you from taking risks and keeping you from living a life full of freedom, air and colors.
Conclusion
Blog by Patrick Fore
I will conclude by telling you "how I wrote this blog". I started designing its skeleton at night after isha prayer in our mosque. Wrote its preface and description after fajar. This conclusion, I am writing sitting here on road in my car, looking at the green trees, feeling the cold air and hearing the birds chirp. I am trying to make you understand, it is not philosophy neither Doctorate, that fixes your life. It is not what these news journalists, your neighbors or your society is telling you. It is none of that old dull pile of books, that makes your life colorful.
It is only “actions”, on your self created rules. Try not breaking them for once. Try to stick to them. You deviate after few punches. You give up on all the initiatives you take. All the dreams you have seen. You just give up sooner or later.
Success comes only after you walk this courageous path of not bending your own rules. Where you do not mold your talks, speeches and reactions. It comes when you become one bright picture. You speak truth, stay humble and be available. All that said, it is; Only after, you become like Muhammad, you will reach the pinnacle of leadership. Because, who ruled, lead and conquered this world better than Muhammad.
