Does it hafta be like that?

I read this article on the net.
It has this 10 dilemmas in Leadership.

One of it states: The more you hit success, the more cheaptalks storms in.
Or something like that.

I mean, i know that already. Im pretty much aware of that.
I was ready for it, hell i even thought that those fuckin cheaptalk is part of my price tag as a leader.

But then if i were ready, why does it still SUCK!?

Goddamn, man it feels like you're being stabbed from everyside and all you can do is watch!!!
And what can you do about it?
I mean where do you go with it?

All i can do is talk about it with my lady but rest for sure, it aint gone.

The Price of Greatness...

In order to achieve greatness one has to think great, speak great, and learn greatness
Recently i have this habit (i have no idea where i picked it from)of reading books.
I read a whole lot of books.
Everytime i finished reading one, i have this excitement to buy another.
Everytime i finished reading one, i feel like i want to do stuffs i read.
But then, buying books doesnt come in cheap prices.
I just bought 2 books (which im quite sure it'll give me a lot of new lessons)one is "THE 8th HABIT; from Effectiveness to Greatness", by Stephen Covey the author of the Best Selling 7 Habits of Highly Effective people. And the other is "How to Deal with Difficult People".
I need that.
But like i said, it doesnt come cheap. But my approach is, people go to business school, i read book :)
Its an investation for me :)

Recently i started to act like i am a good leader (at least i want to be portrayed as one, so might as well act like one)
I do things, great leaders do
I think the way great leaders do
I learn from them
and mirror them
i talk like them
Act like them
ReAct like them

And all of the sudden i began to sound and look like im from another planet
I dont talk like others, i dont act like others, i dont work like others
Hell, i dont even live the way others do.

Somepeople might find that awkward
They think im rude for the things i say that comes from the heart
Things i say that needs to be said in order to excell, to succeed.
I said nothing but the truth

They think im an idealistic when i do things i did
When all i did is to do things the right way.
Of course i still make adjustments to life, i mean isnt that what life is all about?
But im stil making spaces for me to run within the dotted lines.
And they think im not making sense

I think people are ridiculous when they make obvious mistakes
When all they did, was something normal. I mean (normal) people make mistakes
Even i make some. But the difference is, to my eyes, it is SOOO obvious.
Makin it sooooOOO Ridiculous.

I dunno, its like im living in a different dimension with other people.
But im not losing faith or anything
Its not like i dont know what to do

I know what to do
And that's just what i'll do

:)

I'll do it
