Committed. Creative. Courageous. These are but few of the great aspects of true leadership. Through hardships and tribulation, a leader is able to effectively take control and be a example to those who surround them. Throughout my 18 years of living, I have experienced and taken advantage of this great characteristic. In my daily life, I believe leadership is what drives, motivates, and ultimately has made me who I am to this very day. I have been selected and elected leadership roles in many of the organizations I participate in, my community, and my family. I take great pride in this, because people are able to look up to me and implement those qualities within their own life. I, of course, have learned what genuine leadership is by observing the amazing actions of others. Within …show more content…
For days I had gone past ruined homes, stranded pedestrians, and countless amounts of debris. Although disaster surrounded my city, I felt an overwhelming rush to immediately help my community. I called and looked around for any shelters or churches that needed help. Finally, I had found a church that was collecting and distributing food, clothing, supplies, and basic necessities. However, the amount of volunteers was minuscule compared to the number of people who needed aid. I contacted my friends and family who were safe from the storm and asked them to please help these families who were in dire need. Within 24 hours, they all came and brought a great amount of people with them who had supplies as well. This beautiful sight is one that brought so much joy to the people surrounding and I. We were then able to quickly help the men, women, and children who then showed utter appreciation and gratefulness. In the end, there were 200 volunteers from a starting number of 32. I was able to lead the distribution of clothing and interact with the victims, hear their stories, and give out a sufficient amount of
Being a leader is an important position to fulfill because not everyone carries leadership qualities. In order to become a good leader, this person must obtain specific qualities which should come to them naturally. However every good leader still needs to work on their qualities to become an even greater leader which may require a long time of work. Being a good leader can be hard because not everyone is going to agree with the decisions being made. Every good leader should have certain qualities that will help them succeed in every situation. A good leader should qualities such as being passionate and motivated in everything they do, to have patience when working with others, and to be fearless.
A true leader has the confidence to stand alone, the courage to make tough decisions, and the compassion to listen to the needs of others. He does not set out to be a leader, but becomes one by quality of his actions and the integrity of his intent.
A hero can be defined as a person who is admired or idealized for courage, outstanding achievements, or noble qualities. That definition is a perfect description of Adam and his wife, Kelley. The whole book Fearless is about Adam being a hero for his country and also himself. Kelley played a big part in the book also. She pretty much saved Adam’s life.

I believe myself to have all of the characteristics of a leader. The ability to get a team to work together smoothly during group activities so no disagreements occur. Listening to everyone eliminates the possibility for disagreement because if a team is in agreement before making a plan, the team will execute the plan easily. One of the main characteristic of a leader is being inspiring to everyone, this is why I pride myself to be a leading role model for student who want to follow in my footsteps, and become a great leader themselves, and maybe one day be in my
To begin, I exhibit qualities of a great leader. Firstly, at my Saturday morning bowling league, I am positioned as the anchor, which means I am expected to lead my team to victory.. Secondly, I lead by being a good example to my peers, and I am a positive role model. Lastly, when my friends have problems they come to me and I lead them to a positive solution. This is being a good leader.
Adam, was a great husband, father, and SEAL. He loved his wife and children so much. He enjoyed his time with Kelly and loved her unconditionally, even when they were going through hard times.

And last of all he was a great SEAL, who would do anything to protect his country and his brothers in arms, he was fearless.
In late October of 2012 Hurricane Sandy hit many New York City boroughs and several parts of New Jersey. My community and many others were greatly affected. Homes around me were destroyed, people in my community were killed, and some families lost everything. My high school was a shelter for those who were severely affected from October 23rd my high school were asking for volunteers and my older brother and I were there amongst hundreds giving out food collecting clothing articles, blankets, toys, anything to help others. The hardest part was seeing my high school teachers crying educators who were emotionally unstable and had no place to go. The town of Tottenville was terribly affected by hurricane sandy, houses on the shore were gone,
I have many different qualities that attribute to my character. Some including, I am a naturally positive person, I am non-judgmental, and I try my best to be focused and efficient. I also like to make people laugh, but I know when to be serious. Part of being a good leader is knowing how to work as a team. Many of the activities I participate in have shown me how to do so. I believe in working as a team to come up with solutions, plans, and ideas.
Leadership is all about having the right amount of heart and determination to help make a difference in someone’s life. It takes certain qualities to be considered a good leader. A leader should want to help inspire others to make a change and to be the best that they can be. A true leader does not need to feel powerful, instead they empower those around them. Throughout my life I have come across various leaders who have made an impact on my life. It takes a very special person to inspire and touch people’s lives. Leadership is so much deeper than having power and bossing people around.
It takes a lot to be a leader. It takes experience, communication, positivity, passion, and much more to be an effective leader. Communication, positivity, and passion are the three most important characteristics to me. I represent all three of these with great pride. I communicate effectively whether it be in the classroom, on

Leadership; a trait that's been practiced for generations, creating a foundation where anyone can take action and create a plan or idea that can help our society's wellbeing, even if nothing is given in return. However leadership is not a skill that is perfected within a single night, on the other hand it's a trait that is gained throughout time. Being that, when I first began high school I never thought that I would be able to exhibit this vigorous position. I am usually the quite kid in the corner who never speaks and someone who is always shy to be in front of a big crowd. But it all took a turn when I was given the opportunity to become part of the certified nursing assistant (CNA) program at school, Secretary of Flag club, and take part
My idea of leadership is being able to inspire others, motivate, set a vision, communicate, respect others, and of course, lead by example. A leader must have an honest understanding of who they are, what they know, and what they are capable of. To be a successful leader, you have to be able to convince your followers, not just yourself or your superiors, that you are worthy of being followed. In my opinion, this can build confidence in their followers to have faith in you, in order to be able to lead. I strongly believe that good leaders are made rather, and not born. If you have the desire and willpower, you can become an effective leader. Good leaders are developed through a never ending process of self-study, education, training, and
Throughout my life I have led in multipe ways, I have experienced numerous things including being a leader in my church youth group, mulching at young life, attending cross country, and racing in track. First off I think that I am a very commited person. For example, at my church on Wednesday nights I go early to be on a team that helps plan the night and for the months to come. We talk about what jobs each of us needs to do and help decide what needs to be improved. I take a part in cross country every morning and do what is expected of me. I also think that I will bring a positive attitude no matter what happens. Another leadership quality is creativity. I am always willing to solve whatever problem that is before me. I am a hardworker and
