Becoming An Effective Leader

Introduction

If only the world and its inhabitants were able to find their ways through the designated paths on their own; however, this has certainly not been the case. If even an endeavoured is made to compare the primitive times to the existing modern period, it will be deduced without any hard or arduous comprehension that no matter what era mankind has survived, since its inception, it has always required a ray of right direction and constant guidance.

Something similar is my belief too. How can it even be deemed that a person was destined to be a leader until unless he/she puts his/her efforts on a test and figures out the roles? As discussed earlier, some are destined to rule, and other are destined to follow, which means that the later category will always require a constant guidance and ray for moving towards their next step and employing respective efforts to attain their objectives in that domain.

Fortunately, I believe that I belong to the category, which tends to test their selves, and prefer to be a ray rather than the shadow to follow. However, it is highly imperative that in order to become a ray rather than a shadow, a person possesses the required skills, ...
