International Journal of Servant-Leadership

Abstract

Recently, my contemplation has resulted in only one phrase: Choose yourself correctly. Leadership is sometimes viewed as an endless journey, a state of mind, or a method. Servant-leadership is about mission, practice and persuasion. To me, it is all these frameworks and more. The "more" is that it is a journey of endless choices - not merely of decisions, but of choices about who you want to become. The meantime between deciding who you choose to be is between every breath taken in some ways. Because only between breaths do we actually think and feel our choices. You see, the past has been written and can be interpreted; the future is completely unpredictable. The present is either positive or negative choice. The future is the equation of your past plus a positive or negative present choice. What is your choice today? Under what frame do you "choose yourself correctly"?
