A leader is someone who helps improve the lives of other people or improve the system they live under.

We cannot improve on the system of government handed down to us by the founders of the Republic. There is no way to improve upon that. But what we can do is to find new ways to implement that system and realize our destiny.

Awesome or awful
Thou art my friend and yet my foe.
Thou praiseth me dishonestly.
Why is that thou acteth so
Art thou afraid of hurting me?
An enemy who honestly
declares my work is full of flaws.
Helps to improve my poetry
and thus adopts a wiser course.
Although he may show prejudice.
Attacking my attempts at verse
and show no sign of compromise
Methinks your flattery is worse.
I take both with a pinch of salt
and still improve though by default.

I Hope For Improvement
I have a point to improve,
And to improve presence;
Releasing the mark is correct,
Played upon and imaginative.
My point is that I hope
To exclude the promises,
And so form the invitations
Of some preparations.
Introduce me sometimes,
And replace me with others.
To represent my party of people
Is using the points perfectly.
I follow and be followed
Like the jumping of athletes.
To save me seems to run
Into difficulties.

There has always been a saying in baseball that you can't make a hitter, but I think you can improve a hitter. More than you can improve a fielder. More mistakes are made hitting than in any other part of the game.

Change The World
How can one person
change the world?
How can one person
improve the world?
Change yourself you
change the world.
Improve yourself you
improve the world.
Buy gold from God
refined by pure fire
that you may be rich
in faithful good deeds.
Buy white garments washed
in the blood of sacrificed lamb
for the Lamb of God sacrificed
takes away the sin of the world.

No leader sets out to become a leader. People set out to live their lives, expressing themselves fully. When that expression is of value, they become leaders. So the point is not to become a leader. The point is to become yourself, to use yourself completely
