The Weeping Lecturer

In the morning, the heavens opened and it began to rain. Bella grabbed her umbrella to get to school, as she walked out of the hostel the first

Have you been immunized to integrity issues?

The need for integrity is as great as it has ever been. And it is essential for everyone who desires to become a person of influence.
Take a look at this instance, if I try to use human influence strategies and tactics of how to get other people to do what I want, to work better, to be more motivated, to like me and others while I have flawed character—this marks my insincerity, I tell you in the long run, I cannot be successful, why because of the flaw. We have no flawless or perfect human but if you have the quality of distrust, at such point even using the so called good human relation techniques will be perceived as manipulative.

The truth remains that it simply makes no difference how good rhetoric is or even how good the intentions are;  if there is little or no trust, there is no foundation for permanent success. Only basic goodness gives life to technique.

I have said this before, integrity is crucial for business and personal success. As important as integrity is to your business success, it's even more crucial if you want to become an influencer. It is the foundation upon which many other qualities are built, such as respect, dignity and trust. If the foundation of integrity is weak or fundamentally flawed, then being a person of influence becomes impossible. Always remember that one of the realities of life is that if you can't trust a person at all point, you can't truly trust him or her at any point. 

Even people who are able to hide their lack of integrity for a period of time will eventually experience failure, and whatever influence they have temporarily gained will disappear. They will drastically reduce in success as their failure level increases.

Think of integrity having benefits similar to that of a house's foundation during a huge storm. If the foundation is strong then it will hold up against the raging waters but when there are cracks in the foundation, the stress of the storm deepens the cracks until eventually under pressure the foundation and the whole house crumble.

Meanwhile, if you have integrity you are going high in life and your capacity towards reaching your destination is strong but without integrity, mark my word, you are definitely going to fall short of greatness in life. In as much as individuals need integrity, so need to be immune to integrity issues, government hasn't been immune to integrity issues even.

Adding value to other people is the work of a positive influencer

As you move up to the higher levels of influence and become an active influencer, you can begin to have a positive influence on people and add value on their lives. That's true for any positive influencer. The baby-sitter who reads to the child encourages him to love books and helps him become a lifelong learner. The teacher who puts his faith, confidence, and love on a child helps the child to feel valued and good about herself. That boss who delegates to the employees and gives them authority as well as responsibility enlarges their horizons and empowers them to become better workers and people. Even the parents who know how to give their children grace and when to, also help them to stay open and communicative. All of these people add lasting value to the lives of other people. One thing is this, we don't know what kind of influence you have on others, today as you read this article. Your actions may touch the lives of thousands of people. Perhaps you use the opportunity ...

Considerable quotes on a SuperLeader

Perhaps it's time you had a talk with yourself... The teacher does not bid you enter the house of his wisdom but rather leads you to the threshold of your own mind - so must each of you develop your own knowledge and your own understanding. We need a healthy appreciation of those who exercise the free man's option for excellence. Most people are very careful about how they talk to others. They apparently are
