Ten Qualities of a Good Leader

Here are the top 10 qualities of a good leader:

1. Integrity
2. Dedication
3. Humility
4. Assertiveness
5. Trustworthy
6. Motivated
7. Communication
8. Positive Attitude
9. Ethics
10. Commitment

       The five qualities that I want to improve on are dedication, motivation, communication, commitment, and integrity. I don't always stay on task and sometimes when I start something I struggle to finish it. I can't stay motivated to complete projects once I've started. Communication is a problem for me because I don't always say what I mean. I want to work on integrity because I want to be able to say I always do the right thing even when no one is looking.

Why do I blog?

During my Entrepreneurship class my teacher told me about how important blogging and connecting to people via social networks. This year I decided I would start blogging about myself to promote my future. Blogs can be viewed by employers and colleges. It's important to let people know what kind of person you are. I wanted to share my mission and vision statements. Blogging is an easy way to engage with people who will help you achieve good things. I blog so I can document my achievements and academic accomplishments.

19 Signs You’re Doing Better than You Think

I read this article and I was really surprised. Everything it said was true. It made me remember to count my blessings and to stop taking the little things for granted. Number 19 said "You can read" and its sad to think that somewhere in the world someone can't read. It reminded me that I'm a truly lucky person to have all of the things that some people have to live without.

Motivation

This video is really inspiring. After watching this I'm more motivated to never give up. If this incredible person can live to the best of his abilities then I can live to the best of mine too. He has been through so much and he can still get up in the morning and go to work. Even with his condition he has impacted the lives of many other people. I want to be able to be a positive influence on the people around me too.
