Friedrich Nietzsche

A leader takes people where they want to go. A great leader takes people where they don't necessarily want to go, but ought to be. ~ Rosalynn Carter

A leader takes people where they want to go, but a great leader takes them where they don't necessarily want to go but ought to be. It is a noble endeavor, one that requires a special kind of courage and wisdom. It is a difficult task, as it involves convincing people to go somewhere they may not necessarily want to go. But, if done correctly, it can be a powerful and positive force, leading to great and lasting change. It is true that a leader must be able to inspire and motivate people to go to places they may not necessarily want to go in order to reach their goals. But a great leader is more than just a leader, they are a visionary, someone who can see beyond the present and guide their followers to a better future. A great leader has the ability to take people to places they don't necessarily want to go, but ought to be. They are able to bring out the best in their followers, and lead them to places they never thought they could go. A great leader has the power to make the impossible seem possible and to bring out the greatness in those who follow them. That is the power of a great leader, and it is a power that should not be taken lightly.
