Effective leaders do four things:
1. They practice conservation of time.
2. They have an eye fixed on new developments.
3. They build on the strength of their colleagues.
4. They starve the problems and feed the opportunities.
This admonition reminds me of the legend of the old Cherokee woman who was talking to her granddaughter about a fight that is going on inside of herself. The grandmother said the fight was between two wolves.
One wolf represented hate, evil, anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority and ego.
The other wolf represented good, joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith.
The granddaughter thought for a moment and then asked, "Which wolf wins?" The old Cherokee woman simply replied, "The one I feed."
