Let power come to you

In the modern world people chase success. But, this may not be the ideal way. Success should chase you, because of the kind of person you are

There are two kinds of leaders - the Hunters and the Fishermen.

The Hunter typifies those who are constantly tracking down success, but the Fishermen let success and leadership come to them.

When we are hunting, we scare the animals and they run away. We chase them down, mercilessly kill them and take them away as trophies. But Fishing is about patience, dangling the bait, attracting the fish to the bait and then let it come and nibble. It does so voluntarily.

One is about repulsion and the other is about attraction. Which do you prefer?

And how do you attract? Your personality takes care of this. People are attracted to a leader whose personality is well rounded. You need to keep on adding to the various aspects of your personality to get people come to you. This can be done through attitude and skill enhancement. Once you do that, success, influence, leadership and power will come in search of you.
