Contrary to popular opinion, leadership is not a reserved position for a particular group of people who were elected or appointed, ordained or enthroned. Leadership is self-made, self-retained, self-inculcated and then exposed through a faithful, sincere and examplary life.

About This Quote

Leadership is self-made, self-retained, self-inculcated and then exposed through a faithful, sincere and examplary life. This quote captures the essence of leadership. There are many people who believe that leadership is something not only attained but something that is bestowed upon them. But it is so much different than what they believe.

No matter what your station in life is, you are not above leadership. You have the ability to lead people to do great things, to believe in themselves and to accomplish great feats. You have the ability to lead people with integrity and honesty.

Leadership is not reserved for certain individuals but it can be anyone’s responsibility to lead others.
