You attended division conference, you are half way through the semester and several months into a leadership position - the honeymoon is over. Now is your time to act. The following is a poem that a former campus fraternity and sorority advisor wrote about leadership. I hope it inspires you to do what is right, fulfill your obligations, and make a positive impact on your chapter.
Leadership is like a lottery ticket…
- Because it’s a gamble, you have to be willing to take risks
- Because it’s an investment, it requires effort
- Because it can produce great rewards
- Because it’s challenging
Leadership is like a lottery ticket…
- Because you win some and you lose some
- Because it creates excitement and anticipation
- Because the results are always unknown in the beginning
- Because you have to dig below the surface
Leadership is like a lottery ticket…
- Because it can be exhilarating and addicting
- Because it’s thought provoking
- Because it’s mysterious
- Because it creates hopes and dreams
Leadership is like a lottery ticket…
- Because there’s some cost involved
- Because there are always some disappointments
- Because it requires an optimistic attitude and perseverance
And, Leadership is like a lottery ticket…
- Because within it lies great potential to positively impact the lives of others
