There’s this idea that being a leader is some sort of a desirable position. Being a leader is being of service to others. It’s being willing to face the consequences of every decision. It’s taking responsibility for everyone under your care. It’s prioritizing others before yourself. To die if necessary for others. It’s not something you want to do, but something you feel compelled to do. It’s not a top spot or perch to boss others around from. Leadership is a sacred calling and responsibility.

HODL for President. Just kidding. I like you and would rather you stay safe, sane and sovereign.
AMEN Brother..previously thought I was a leader because I was well compensated to make sure others did what they were also paid to do. Realistically..I was just another cog in the wheel. Now..my life has meaning. Gotta thank #Bitcoin for giving me the freedom to take a pay cut & the community for changing my outlook on life 🙏🏼 image

The trait to want and push for leadership of others should immediately disqualify the person from the position.
Leadership positions are often pursued as a remedy to compensate for personal insecurities.
You are describing a GOOD leader. Sadly, there is not much of this species remaining nowadays. I would also add, a good leader fill confident with his team, there is a kind of mutual respect. It permit all of the team (leader included) to go father together.
Very well said @HODL I see leadership as helping those I lead become the best version of themselves. But that’s hard—really hard—especially in a culture that elevates leaders to guru or god-like status. True leadership looks more like lowering yourself than raising your platform. Would we have the humility of Jesus, who washed His disciples’ feet the night before He was crucified? That’s the model. Not dominance. Not applause. But love expressed through service—even when it costs everything.
Isn't this the truth ? "If you want to lead, you are not fit to lead." Best leaders are those that don't really want the job but realize no else is able to "step up"
