44. A real leader
This is a story about leadership that I read on the internet!
There was once a great war between two countries. On a hot afternoon, a man in civilian clothes was riding past a small group of tired soldiers who were digging a huge pit.
The group leader was shouting orders and threatening to punish them if the work was not completed within an hour.
The man riding the horse stopped and asked. 'Sir, why don't you help them?' The group leader replied, 'I am their leader. The men do as I tell them. If you feel so strongly about it. you go help them! The man calmly got off the horse and started working with the soldiers till the job was finished. Before leaving, he congratulated the soldiers for their work, and approaching the group leader said, 'The next time your status prevents you from supporting your people, inform your higher authorities and they will provide a more permanent solution.'
At that moment, another soldier came running up and saluted the man and spoke a few words to him. The man nodded and got onto his horse and rode away. 'Who is that man?' asked the group leader. 'Don't you know?', said the soldier: 'He is the Army General!'
A true leader is a person who is ready lo take responsibility consciously. He is ready to handle life consciously and respond spontaneously to life. He approaches life with tremendous awareness, sensitivity and maturity.
