Leadership Mindset

Whatever a great man does, the world follows.  Whatever standards he sets, the world pursues – Bhagavad Gita

Leadership is about committing to a goal/vision and lead others by own example. To explain it in simple terms – they practice what they preach.
Leadership is not necessarily a role.
Whether leaders are consciously aware or unaware, everyone is closely watching their actions. Therefore, leaders should be mindful of not leading others from the state of unconscious reactive but from the conscious active state.
A brave leader doesn’t fear change.
Through real change makes people feel vulnerable, in the long run, it makes them feel comfortable about who they really are and lead.
A good leader strives to create steadiness and normally stay balanced.
One of the key qualities of a leader is to develop a balanced approach when it comes to dualities of life.
Examples include happiness and sorrow, good and bad, heat and cold, fame and infamy, etc.
Though life presents both pleasant and unpleasant situations, a leader should be willing to learn how to tolerate and stay detached to both positive and negative outcomes.
Developing a sense of calmness during difficult situations requires internal strength & clarity that can be developed through mindfulness and spiritual practices.
True leaders create more leaders! Though we are living in an age that promotes individualism, we all need help and support to accomplish great things in life. Nurturing others while traveling our own journey helps to create a new generation of leaders with giving and accepting mindset. This way we can potentially avoid breeding selfishness mindset for the next generation. One good example is Mother Nature that offers us so many things for free without expecting anything in return.
