On Leading

One of the great pains of having people work for you is that like a parent with children, you will have to make sure that they have the basic necessities- such as training, a good working environment, a good culture in the company, benefits and the likes.

As a leader, it pains you when your team is divided. It makes you feel as if you haven't done enough. It makes you feel angry when you see that divisions are caused by petty instances which could have been avoided in many ways.

But as with all things, enough is enough.

There is a point in time when man's patience reaches a breaking point- and that point may serve as an eyeopener not only to the witnesses, but also to the person itself.

I know that pretty much everything in my life has been handed to me in a silver platter. And I know that perhaps a part of me is still in a maturing process, yet I discover newer and newer things about myself and the world through my little experiences.

And as I keep traversing on this journey, I pray for understanding, for patience, and for wisdom in discernment.
