Between these two books in front of me, I chose "Leadership Is A Choice" by Austin Young. Judging from the book title, I guessed it would first explain why we should make ourselves leaders. After that, the author would go further to give us some advice about how to cultivate leadership that brings out the best in ourselves and the people around us. Leafing through the pages, I found the author putting great emphasis on the idea that the only way to learn leadership was by getting involved in leading groups, whether it was to organize a group project, chair a student club, or captain a sports team. It was during the process that we were able to observe what was working for us and learned from our mistakes.
As for me, I used to be a little timid and reserved while doing group projects. Every time when group discussion was needed, I was afraid to voice my opinions. I felt even so when I differed from the teachers and peers. Not until I was elected as vice president of the recreation guidance club did I gradually develop the confidence and skills needed to overcome fear of criticism and failure. Now when carrying the load of leadership, I regard public criticism as the norm and regularly request feedback from my team. Though I hate failure more than anything in the world, especially when all eyes are on me, I come to realize I stand no chance of becoming a better leader without the failure I've experienced along the way. Young’s book just inspires me to dig deep into the question: What else could I do to be a more impactful leader?
