Yesterday was so jam packed that I am struggling today to physically be ready to handle anything but I know it all must be done. Today will be a busy day and generally when I am as exhausted as I am I try to be a follower as opposed to a leader. And of all days, today I need to lead. I need to lead at work. I need to lead in my social life. I need to lead in my spiritual community. I have to be a leader sheep.
Why do I have to be a leader sheep? If I don't I will feel as though I failed at something or that someone else got the best of me. I have to be a leader in order to maintain my pride and confidence in myself. It's tough to do, especially when you don't want to physically. But I have to prove myself at all times.
We all have to work at being leaders in our life. Otherwise we tend to step back and let others walk on us. Are there complications to this and consequences? Yes. We aren't going to please everyone all the time and I tend to try to please everyone. Instead, I have to accept that not everyone will like my leadership skills. It won't keep me from trying though.
We really do need people like you, who can take on a job and do the very best possible. I feel the same way, and so do many others. It's always nice to look back and see your accomplishments. There is at some point, however, where a person just has to say, "Okay, I've done enough for now, and I need to kick back and rest". If you can't do that every so often, then you might be a work-a-holic and will end up burning yourself out. We all need to know and obey what we know to be true, when we reach that point.
