Vital lessonsPart 1: leadership and life .

Vital lessons.
In the last fifteen years of my life I have commented to personal development. My notes are full, I probably cannot remember who thought me or where I read what, but I can tell I have learnt from the best ever lived. I hope to bring to bear some of the lessons I was able to pen down from learning and my speech over the years. These may not be all and exhaustive, but I will try to put them in bullet point. Enjoy the ride.
LEADERSHIP
• Good leadership do not just build their personal credibility, they build the organisations leadership capacity or the capacity of the organisation to sustain future leaders.
• Studies of leadership began with a simple premise: leaders must deliver results.
• Leadership must develop a logical framework for making intangibles tangible in manner that increases confidence in the future.
• Leaders are dealer in hope.
• Never spend the money you don’t have to buy what you don’t need to impress people you don’t like.
• What you don’t have you can’t give. When a leader read a book the organisation has benefited from its content. When a leader is ignorant the organisation suffers. You must always and constantly by going and exploring new territory.
• Managers maintain leaders innovate. Managers keep status co, leaders create a new future. You can’t lead people where you’ve not been. Where have you been? VISION!
Four Pillars of leadership.
1. Purpose: What I was created for.
2. Conviction: Great leaders have conviction of purpose.
3. Passion: Passion makes the alarm clock irrelevant.
4. Inspiration: If you can’t inspire you manipulate, when you manipulate you are not a leader.
• Every true vision has one believer first

RELATIONSHIP
• “The act of been wise is knowing what to overlook” –William Jane
Operate the law of planned neglect. Learn to forgive. Forgiveness should never be with a price, give it freely. If you are able to forgive enough you will make more friends than enemies. Never hold people down in un-forgiveness, you will not be up too.

To build good relationships you must:
1. Understand people
2. Love people
3. Help people
Too many people are ready to assert their right than to assume their responsibility.

TEN relationship watch outs.
1. Never think you don’t have to build relationship.
2. Never think selfish and distrustful of others.
3. Never grow numb to positive attitude.
4. Never belittle people.
5. Always see reason to help others.
6. Always want to build Gods kingdom not yours.
7. Be responsible. Don’t fix blame fix the problem.
8. Never jump to conclusion on any matter, listen to everyone.
9. Give relevant response. When you don’t know what to say or do, keep quiet.
10. Be progressive: don’t think life should freeze.
