Lessons

1

Character is a word that many know, but few understand. It is the character of a person that makes them valuable.

A leader who will make a difference is one who has patience, trust, integrity and is respectful. They must possess and practice these traits within themselves first. Self Leadership is the most effective form of leadership.

An effective leader practices daily using these core characteristics. Once they begin to master these, then they are ready to lead a group.

2

There are many myths that young leaders believe. When leadership is bestowed upon us, we rely on those myths and they can lead to mistakes.

When we make mistakes as a leader, the weight can become unbearable and the pressure too much to handle.

In this lesson we will share the keys to great leadership that will help you avoid the myths and uncover the truths.

3

In this lesson, we will review why it is important to self assess.

If you are not aware of your strengths and weaknesses, how can you improve?

Doing what you have always done is not necessarily good enough to get you to where you want to go. It takes personal insights to see what improvements need to be made.

4

It is time to begin to change. Change is difficult because it is a step into the unknown.

We fear change because it creates doubt, then worry comes and finally fear takes over. We bail out on growth because it scares us.

This process develops trust and self confidence. It allows us to become what we want to be. It is important to build and maintain a growth mindset. You may never be as good as you want to be, that is the beauty of life. We can constantly improve ourselves to new successes and experiences.

5

As you have discovered through this course leading yourself can be a big challenge.

As we finish the course we speak to the challenges of leading a group. There are many personalities to know, support, and motivate.

By now you should be much better at leading yourself and this needs to remain your primary focus, always.

The group will need your character to rub off on them. When you are doing the right things, the group can be inspired to uphold that same standard. It is your job to lead by example.
