Being a Leader is not an easy job, but how we become a true leader? And what is the essence of Leadership? The questions that slowly come up with my mind.

Everyone is a leader in our own way. Whether we lead a certain business, country, families, group of friends or just ourselves. We are all leaders in different forms and fashion. If we work and improve to be a leader we can enlarge our capacity and inspire people.

We can be a true leader, for me these are the things that a leader should consider.

Learn from your mistakes. Being a leader doesn't need to be perfect we need to learn also from our own mistakes because we can use it to lead and know what we need to do because of that mistakes we can do better.

Earn their trust. Trust is very important to become a true leader because how can you lead your group if you are not trustworthy. Prove them that you can lead and be a good leader.

Associate yourself with other people. This is also important because if we associate ourselves with other we can have a better communication with them and it will cause of good relationship with them and we can manage to lead them easily.

Do your best to lead them. You don't need to be a perfect leader just do your best to lead because giving our best in what actions we do is much bettee than pushing ourselves to lead them in our expectations.

Equal treatment for people. This is one of the things we need to consider to become a true leader. Give them the equal treatment they deserve. As long as it's good for us there is no problem of treating them equally. 

Reach your goal as a leader. Don't just reach your own goal but also your goal for your group. This goals are also your target to develop and improve your control to your group.

Speak for the truth. Many people want a genuine leader and you need to do that. This will also improve your sincere heart to speak the truth about the status of the group you're controling. 

Hear other people suggestion. This  is something that the leader also need to consider. Your willingness to hear what others want to say without rushing to judgment. They are patient and genuine in their desire to understand the thoughts and feelings they want to suggest to you. Sometimes, they know actions and steps will abide by, regardless of the circumstances they face. 

Influence other people to become a Leader. A leader used to be a follower and that's what you can also teach and encourge other to start being a follower because Tom Peters once quotes, "True Leaders Don't create followers. They create more Leaders."

Protect what group you lead. This is also important because protecting your group is like protecting your love ones. Show your love to them and don't do bad actions that will affect them.

Through these things I create the L.E.A.D.E.R.S.H.I.P in my own definition. These are the things that needs to be considered and to be learned to become a true Leader.

Nevertheless, the most important part to become a leader is your heart that is willing to serve and fight for your group. Your bravest ability to develop and lead them. 

“True leaders understand that leadership is not about them but about those they serve. It is not about exalting themselves but about lifting others up.” –Sherry Dew 

We all have room to improve as leaders, but our ultimate goal should be the same: To be leaders who are loved, admired, and respected by the people we lead as we motivate and inspire those people to achieve their full potential.
