The real goal of a leader is to be able to get into to the habit of making decisions without flip-flopping and to be able to make those decisions in the face of adversity. How nice would it be to make decisions without the pressures of other people counting on you to make them, withstanding the spotlight?
There are more people than you can imagine that would rather not have the ball in their hands when everything is at stake, the big play needs to be made, and the game is on the line. They shun the responsibility to someone else to get it done.
Organizations and individuals have to do more than wait for direction. We cannot expect someone else to take responsibility for our own success. We must make our own opportunities, participate where opportunities already exist, and become part of something bigger than us.
