This is March Book of the Month. Actually I was looking for this book a couple of months back in Kinokuniya when it was the book of the month in India. But somehow I could not find it. I had seen it there before but could not afford it then. Well, now I know that God has a plan and that I was not meant to find it then. If not I would have 2 copies of this book.

A truly wonderful book. Most of us already have some leadership qualities -- and the potential to develop even more. To grow, we need guidance from someone who cares about us and our success, and is already where we want to be. This book includes a few qualities of leaders. For example true leaders always care about others more than themselves. Quote from book: Caring about others -- without trying to figure out how you'll be rewarded is the fastest way to achieve wealth and happiness. Nowadays people do things for a motive and that just aint rite. You have to be true and sincere because it will reflect in your eyes. People are not stupid, they know when you are honest or not.

Leaders always know where they are going in life. This is the main reason why people follow them. They have this positive attitude that when people are around them, they themselves feel good. How many people can say that they feel better whenever they are with you? Really think about it.

Of course the most important quality in a leader is that they are not afraid of failure. If you are not willing to make mistakes and risk failure, you have already reached your maximum potential. And to do this, you need to change. Most people do not like change. Of course change is uncomfortable! Thats how you learn.

Some other qualities of leader are resposibility for actions, being passionate enough to succeed, believe in others and keeping things simple. Leaders always have control on themselves, their emotions, their challenges, their life. You would not even know that a leader is having a rough time because they only spread good positive things around.

After I finished reading the book, 3 people came to my mind. Mr Srikanth, Raje and Hamid. As you read more of this book, you will understand what true leaders they are. Appreciate them, learn from them, study them and be a leader yourself. Leaders are there to lead others to leadership. You will need to do that someday.
