Leadership appears in various ways. Throughout history it is portrayed that there needs to be a ruler. It is not necessary that we need a leader. However due to history we have always had leaders. The human kind thinks we “need” some sort of leader.
The whole reality behind this lie is we do not need a leader. We are not obligated to have one or listen to them. Since the human race has been taught to only live with leaders. They are oblivious to do things without a leader. Its’ human nature and this even applies to animals. The “leader” for the animal kingdom will be the lion. Every animal listens and obeys the lion. The lion will always have the final word. In reality who said the lion is the leader? This is just human nature. It can not be avoided. It is bound to happen because as humans we are like that.
“Leadership” is bound to happen and is part of our human nature. A leader will not be a leader if it has no followers. A leader without its followers are nothing. Once it has followers its like it gains some sort of power. A leader is always going to have at least one follower. It may be because they look up or agree with them.
A leader to me is when a person stands up for their beliefs. Not caring what people think of them. Even not caring whether or not people agree with them. Having a voice in order to make a change or something known.
Socrates is an example of a leader. He was convicted of corrupting the mind of the youth. That was the reason he went to jail. As a leader he was giving the youth ideas. He kept them open minded. There are many types of leaders and Socrates was one of them. One of the few to change the way people think. Not all leaders we have to obey them. However, if we do not there may be consequences. It is just like the state. If you disobey the law there will be consequences. If you don’t feel like doing something there may be consequences. “The State is a Family” like a family you must obey the rules. That is when leadership comes into play. They “have” to do instead of what we “want” to do. There is really no sense of freedom. Even if we are considered “citizens”. It is either we follow the rules or we don’t. However, there will be consequences.
A leader to me is someone who portrays their ideas out loud. In order to make themselves heard. A leader is someone who takes upon their ideas while having followers. They are not always corrupt. Some are just philosophers who want their voices heard. A person who stands up for what is right or wrong is a leader. A leader is not always needed. It is more to help the people’s voices to be known.
