“I think I know the reason why there are few leaders. I am persuaded I know why 10% of the people dictate to the rest 90%. To lead requires a vision that is far bigger than you. It requires a strong belief in God and in a place He has carved for you in history. You have got to put everything on the line for what you believe and run the race of life with an unusual mixture of passion and perseverance. You will smile through your troubles and keep your head in success. You will hate less and love more, play less and work more, complain less and live more. You will enjoy what you do and do what you enjoy. You will fall and rise up again. You will fail and try again without losing your enthusiasm. You will stand on the high moral grounds and refuse to buckle under pressure. You are like an endangered specie.

Now, you can understand why only few end up as leaders. It's a road less travelled by men. Yet, it’s the road God prescribed for you when He made you in His image and gave you a tremendous power to impact your world. If you are not a leader, you are not living optimally.”
― Abiodun Fijabi
