Great leaders are humble and grateful Have you ever been around someone who talks only of themselves and brags about the things they do, or the things they have? It’s like that Toby Keith song: “Let’s talk about me, let’s talk about I, let’s talk about number one oh my me my…” It’s exhausting being around people who can’t see outside themselves to be able to look at what amazing things others have to offer. Zig Ziglar says: “Conceit is a weird disease. It makes everyone sick…except the one who has it!” -Zig Ziglar What separates a good leader from a bad leader? A bad leader is often egotistical, judgmental and unforgiving. A bad leader is somebody who is basically in it just for himself or herself, and could care less about others. On the other hand, good leaders are those who are humble, open and grateful. Gratitude is an extremely important trait to have to be an effective leader. Rather than forcing their opinions and desires upon others, great leaders find ways to inspire, motivate and encourage the team to become great too. True leadership is all about inspiration. When you thank others, it gives you the proper mindset for success. It forces you to be humble and to be open to the contributions of others, and to be actively seeking ways to express thanks.
