Steps Somewhere (Haiku)

The quintessential leader makes those around him better. If he accepts mediocrity, it is to his own detriment. If he sits idly, the first step he takes will lead to nowhere.

Opportunity

Failure is the least of our worries.

Imagine

If we never try.

Willpower

Adversity is a test of wills.

It concedes when we don’t give up.

Excellence

A leader excels

When his people can overcome

Mediocrity

Sacrifice

Fighting rebellion

Means the ruler

Has become too haughty to serve

Some words of wisdom here. Every leader should lead by example and be willing to do anything he or she is asking of those under his or her command.
