[H854]How To Be Effective Leader

by Noraini Maskuri, Nor

Ever since the movie, The Secret was shown to the world, there is a new level of consciousness in many people about the law of attraction. The world is suddenly awakened and it brings forth a new thinking that encourages positivity in thoughts and forces people to reflect on how
much of what has happened in their lives in the past is determined by what and how they had thought.

Imagine, if you take this forward, how much you can influence your life and destiny and achieve all that you desire.

Have you wandered how you can apply this law of attraction to your job and career. Especially if you are leading a team, just knowing how you can direct your thoughts can mean great things for yourself and for your staff. The more you understand it, the better off you are going to be.

If your goal is to gain respect from your team, then focus on the good that respect will do for you by visualizing on the end result. Your thought vibration will generate or attract what you think of. If you are having difficulty managing people, focus less on the difficulties but on sending positive thoughts to the problem. Happy solutions have a way of surfacing when you focus on the positives.

There is a brand new report called Attraction Acceleration, where Bob Proctor, the teacher in the movie The Secret, was interviewed by another mindpower expert, Stephen Pierce on how to accelerate the attraction factor and the science of getting rich. Bob Proctor is a real-life guru in manifestation.

In the special report, Bob Proctor said, "You don't get rich by doing certain things.You get rich by things in certain way".

If your goal in your career is to make a lot of money, then it would be worth reflecting on what else Bob Proctor shared :

"See people don't earn $50,000 a year because they want $50,000 a year.
They earn $50,000 a year because they're not aware of how to earn $50,000 a month. Because they're not aware of how to earn $50,000 a month."

Interesting thought worth reflecting on.

The report also talks about The Law of Vibration and explains how your body which is a massive energy at a high speed, vibrates and attracts that which your thought generates. This determines what is being attracted to you.

Having gratitude is also key in attracting all that we desire. Because gratitude is our thoughts, and feelings and action and that translates into our attitude.

The law of attraction has been around for a long time and has been the guiding force of very rich and successful people. The key to achieve it is that they believe in themselves and put their trust and faith that the system works.

You can harness all this knowledge to become an effective leader and a very successful one if you so desire. Having the awareness of the forces of the law of attraction will guide you in your daily thoughts and actions. It gives you the power to guide others in your team and lead them to achieve better things for themselves too.

Effective leadership

Wisdom is a key ingredient that young leaders would need in many challenging situations to get them through. It is a skill that nobody can teach in school but it can be learned through self-help books, lessons of others, great leaders and from people with wisdom.

Wisdom is the ability to judge or discern what is true, lasting or right insight. It simply is common sense or good judgement based on accumulated knowledge, experience and learning through the ages that translates into understanding and enlightenment.

?Never mistake knowledge for wisdom. One helps you make a living; the other helps you make a life.? Sandra Carey quotes

As important as it is to have wisdom in life, so it is in being an effective leader. I have seen in the last 20 years in the corporate world how many young leaders have triggered so much unhappiness in the workforce that led to endless turnover. When leaders do not have the foresight or necessary wisdom, they tend to behave in a rash manner and take actions that are often based on ego or personal agenda. In the long run, it is disruptive to the work environment and highly unproductive. Do not allow your lack of wisdom to create disharmony for fellow colleagues or business associates.

How to achieve wisdom? Is is even achievable?

Wisdom can be achieved when you have the awareness and the humility to accept that your youth has its limitations. However if you are leading a team, you have a responsibility to develop good habits of thought that provoke reflective thinking. Learn from great thinkers and leaders on their life's lessons and the wisdoms they got out of them.

In his book, "The Essence of Wisdom", the 14th Dalai Lama, Tenzin Gyatso said:

"Love for others and respect for their rights and dignity, no matter who or what they are: ultimately these are all we need. So long as we practise these in our daily lives, then no matter if we are learned or unlearned, whether we believe in Buddha or God, or follow some other religion or none at all, as long as we have compassion for others and conduct ourselves with restraint out of a sense of responsibility, there is no doubt we will be happy".

For the youth of today, taking leadership role is a challenge when it comes to dealing with senior subordinates. There usually is a gap in understanding, where the young leaders may be forward thinking and ambitious, the senior subordinates may be more cautious and conservative. Learn to respect the wisdom of your team, for they may have come from hard knocks of life and experiences. Never treat with disdain the value of wisdom from older people. Always seek to understand and appreciate others? views even though that contradict with yours.

Allow me to share this famous and powerful prayer, called Serenity Prayer:

"God grant us the serenity to accept the things we cannot change,
courage to change the things we can, and wisdom to know the difference."

Wisdom in leadership cannot be acquired overnight, however it can be cultivated through some hard listening and reflecting. You know you have acquired wisdom when you are ready to apply life's lessons and grow.
