Leaders Will Take Massive Action As a leader, you will always have a purpose and vision for yourself and will be ready to act when a situation offers you a problem or opportunity. Not only must you be prepared to take massive action; a great leader sets the bar high. You must gain an understanding that great results and rewards lie just beyond the edge of what you find comfortable, and you need to be willing to purposefully cross that line and embrace the unknown. This does not mean you need to be impractical or careless. No, you as leader, are required to be logical to the nth degree, each choice being made on purpose, in line with your vision. You have to be tough, have a strong mental presence and learn to be tolerant of others who do not have the skill set you have. You could go on to say that a certain level of empathy for other people is necessary, just as is a certain charisma and an ability to influence. One last thing: you must be a master of action and know the importance of acting fast, acting bold, knocking out the competition with your brazenly beautiful symphony of purposeful action. You, too, can be a great leader.
