Leaders Heroes aren't only people who have power in muscles, but if their strong in their qualities and charasteristics. Have you ever thiught of what makes a REAL leader? Good qualities and good charasteristics that make a good leader are : Dependabilty, Insirational, and bravery! I strongly believe that these 3 qualities should be found in a leader. A true leader must be dependable. What that means is that if you think of them as a leader then a person must be dependable because you can't just have a leader and their not trustworthy or responsible.. For example: If you have to give something on a due date and your partner shows up the next day with nothing then you can't depend on them any more. Another reason as to why they should have this quality in them as a leader is because they should be responsible at the same time. If they're not responsible at the same time which is almost the same as dependable, then soon people will look for a new leader and forget about this leader. For example, Mohandas Gandhi said that he would go across countries to put the tax on salt lower, and people depended on him to do that, and later on the went on the march for it. This is also a way of inspiring them. He inspired followers to walk with him. This brings me to my next quality, Inspirational. A reason why I think that a leader must be inspirational is because if you have a leader and they don't inspire you to face new challenges everyday, then that won't get you anywhere in life. Inspirational means that if you want to get somewhere in life and your struggling to get there, then one day someone comes to you and says for example " Don't worry, or you'll get there soon" that person is inspiring you to acheive your goal. Martin Luther King fought against racism and discrimination come to an end, and also inspired other to do the same. He spread the word that racism should come to an end and that is exactly what happend because he "Inspired" people! Another reason is because I think that a leader must tell his people that they should never give up and have hope in themselves, and also they should also have self-confidence in them selves! My next and last quality is that a person must be brave. A person must be brave and should always stand up for challenges that come in their way. Bravery means having to endure challenges because no matter what happens, life will go on, you can not pause or rewind time. From my perspective, I think that if this quality is missing in a leader, then they're not a good leader. This is the key to the door of the last quality in a leader which must be there. For example, Muhammad Ali, a very famous boxing player, always had faith in himself that he would win the battle or next match. He always believed in himself. The second reason as to why I chose this quality is because I think that a leader must be fearless, and never be scared! Now do you understand what makes a true leader? A true leader is someone who is dependable, Inspirational, and also a person that has bravery. I strongly believe that these three qualities must be found in a leader. Dependablity because you have to trust them also. Inspirational because they should always tell you to keep going on in life, and never give up and have confidence in them. Lastly, Bravery because I think that they should never be feared of something, and that they should always have faith in them selfs so that they can do something everyday.
