Part 3 Aspirations
This
section focuses on YOU and how being a great leader means leading from the
inside out. Through our developments as a leader we are developing our self,
and in order to do this we have to venture through our closed doors which in the
end will lead us to the truth. It mentions setting yourself free, listening to
your heart and using your inner compass to follow the road you’re on towards
making a difference…. So who are you?
I am futuristic person, the future is something that excites me. When I was in the 6th grade I told my best friend I was going to go to Bridgewater State University, I was going to study Elementary Education and I was going to teach the second grade. She approached me at my graduation party and told me that she was amazed that I not only knew what I wanted to do in the 6th grade but that I was actually pursuing it. I have always looked to the future but being a double major in history I know how important the past is. I know that in order to look to the future you have to look at the past as well and learn from it. It is our past that shapes our future and who we are. But with that being said people today are so consumed in the present they can’t look past the next few hours. Being a student I absolutely understand what this means. I have struggled to simply read this book because as soon as I pick it up I begin to think about the four other books I’m suppose to be reading for history and find myself sacrificing this book for the fascinating Civil War novels I’m currently attempting to read. But what people need to remember is that if you are so totally consumed in the future you miss what’s going on around you. The book mentions to simply stop. You have to stop, stop being in motion, turn the cell phone off and look at the possibilities around you and explore them! YOUR NOT LOST YOUR ON AN ADVENTURE!!
