so here is an easy one if you want to become a leader that other people respect and trust.

many people see and then over look opportunities to fill in where there is a need. not just ‘service’ opportunities but leadership opportunities. often leaders are waiting for their next big assignment to prove themselves. hoping that their current work will be noticed. wishing that someone would see their skills and abilities for all that they could be. 

-– STOP WAITING! —

open your eyes. there are projects and items that are open for the leader who steps into gaps and opportunities. you know what needs to be done. you see what could be better. you can do things without being assigned or promised a promotion or a raise. it just takes a bit of initiative and personal drive; AMBITION baby!

leaders who do what they haven’t been asked to do will be the ones asked to do what everyone else wishes they could.
