Leadership is a great place to be, but it is a big responsibility. It is the ultimate responsibility. You must be the “leader” which means in all of the above areas, you must be the standard-bearer, you set the pace, you show how it should be done. You have people’s lives in your hands, leadership is serious.
My challenge to any leader that reads this or parent for that matter. Be the standard-bearer, set the pace, show the way today.
