About This Quote

One of the most important qualities that a person can have is the ability to lead. Someone who has the ability to lead others and inspire them to lead others will become a leader and be able to guide and influence others. A person must first learn how to take action and then how to guide others. A person’s actions speak louder than words and all it takes is one person to take action and follow them. The first follower will be able to lead many, many more people and create a movement that will shape the world.
