Leadership


What is Leadership? Why is Leadership important?

A leader is one with a clear mission. He leads others to achieve a noble objective. Is everyone has a leadership in them? Should we lead our own lives?


I have been thinking hard about leadership. Robert Kiyosaki in Conspiracy of the Rich stated, "One way to be a great leader is to keep learning and keep accepting feedback from your team - even if it's not feedback you like".


In the house, we need to lead our family members. In the school, we need to lead our school mates. In a Company, we need to lead our employees. In the country, we need to lead our nations.


So, what is my mission. Rich Dad's mission is to elevate the financial well-being of humanity. At first I do not quite blend into the mission. Last night I started to feel it : -What is required of a Leader.

When Rich Dad was on military duty during the Vietnam War, his mission is to bring back his team members alive.


Therefore, I found out that as a leader, I need to lead the family to financial freedom. In a Company, I need to lead the employees to a profitable company so that they can have job and financial security. I am responsible for everyone who believes in me..... it also means that I have to take very well care of myself. Many people depends on me.....


Then I started to ponder about my mission. Since my first business will be in Food Business, I want to delight and spoil my customer healthily but economically.


Connie do not like the word I chose "spoil". What do you think? To me, spoil means customers can eat what they want cause they know the food is healthy or it should not do much harm. For example, I will use garbage enzyme to pre-soak my vegetables to reduce pesticide or other chemical if any. This will make the vegetables taste better. Eventually lead to healthier lifestyle, hopefully, though not guarantee.
