Chapter Five taught me that you do not have to be the conductor of an orchestra to be a leader. I lead from my position now. Everyone is a leader no matter what they do. Being a leader is not defined as your position or title but by what you do. By making a difference in my community, I am a leader. Being a leader is also letting someone else do the shining and not holding the spotlight for you.
Chapter 6 teaches one to relax and enjoy life. Do not take things so seriously. Reminds me of quote for a Batman movie that I recite often “Why so serious batman?” I know it is a crazy quote to remember but it reminds me so much of this chapter. So often we get caught up in things and ourselves that we forget to relax a little. It is not always about the title you have or who sees you. It’s about relaxing and taking in what you can.
Chapter 7 teaches you to accept your mistakes. Some things in life happen for reasons we cannot control. Sometimes it really just is “the way things are.” This chapter teaches you ways to cope and understand what is happening in life. It reminds me of a book that helps you cope with losing someone.
Chapter 8 giving the way to passion makes you take a look at yourself and realize what you should change about yourself. Look at your whole self and taking away the boundaries that keep you from everyone else.
Bravo! Your summary of the chapters was concise and poignant. It provided the reader with a clear understanding of the material in the chapters. “Why so serious?” was one of my favorite quotes from that movie and definitely captures the spirit of chapter 6’s practice. Overall, you did a great job!
