Imagine that our lawmakers are our leaders of the present
and the future. Imagine they are innovators and finding ways to protect us and
keep us safe as well as finding ways to keep us from paying higher taxes and misspending
more money on wasteful projects or government expenses. Imagine they are doers
and not talkers. Every now and then you have to roll the dice in your life and
go do something courageous or bold. Not only does this make your time on Earth
more interesting but is demonstrates you are willing to leave the pack and lead
by example.
To become a better leader you have to become an innovator and finding productive ways about experiencing as many creative thinking cycles of actually doing something as long as you can. When faced with challenges you must act; you must learn and you must follow through to finalize your solution. The sooner you learn the sooner you get it done. In doing something about the challenges facing us you become a learner. You begin to know more about the resolution at hand and the matter in general.
The more you do, the more you learn. Making mistakes is part of the process but not making the same mistake is progress you can count on. Taking action helps you think. The more you think the more gets done. The more gets done the better you become at solving the problems for those that depend on you as an elected official. Innovative leadership is about doing, not talking.
Everybody has a dream. Some dream of becoming a fireman, a
policeman, a teacher or a doctor and some, yes some dream of being a politician
that can make a difference in someone’s life. Everybody deserves the chance of being
a leader but only real leaders step up to fill the void when the calling is
difficult or perilous. Leaders make things happen, making something happen
creates action so it fair to say that action verbs are greater in value than
nouns or titles.
Lawmakers are not necessarily leaders. One would expect them
to be to some degree but many fail the role elected for by their constituents. By
the end of the day or session, nothing was accomplished and their identity is
of those that do nothing. Leaders create opportunities for improvements,
savings or wellness whether social, economic or wellness and safety.
