TO BE A GREAT LEADER, YOU HAVE TO BE A GOOD FOLLOWER

It is said that there is no new thing under the sun. this makes me conclude that whatever it is that one is experiencing or passing through at any time in this world, there is someone who has gone through that lane before you.
He who wants to fly one day must first learn how to stand and walk, one cannot fly into flying. Also to fly, instructors are needed and the ability to follow the instructions layed down by the instructors is what makes one a professional flyer.
This simple analysis explains the fact that to be an instructor yourself, you have to be instructed and disciplined enough to listen and follow every instruction given to you.
All you have to do is to make sure that whoever you are following is experienced and sound in whatever field of life you are opportuned to be his student.
Many great leaders we have both in the past and today had many mentors that helped them in carving out their niitch and achieving whatever they achieved in their life time.
To Peter there was Jesus, to Elisha there was Elijah, to Obama there were Clintons and the likes.
this is very important to know.
