EVERYBODY IS A LEADER

Many people hope that they will be leaders. But, most of them don’t be aware that actually they are leaders of themselves. Every action in their life is controlled by them. While a student be the class president, that means he/she is a leader. Elementary school teacher is a leader of his/her pupils. A mother is also a leader of her children. Almost everyone is a leader in each environment, it doesn’t matter how many people in that environment, although he/she has only one follower, he/she still can be called a leader. There isn’t any awareness that everyone is a leader. It often causes a person doesn’t want to develop his/her leadership. Everyone has same opportunities to develop it. If we develop it, we will have a more meaningful life. Let’s develop our leadership and be the true leader!
