Respect, the heartline of leadership. Who knows of a leader who isn't feared? But then again, it shouldn't be that fear of their capabilities but rather abilities. If you're a leader it comes naturally to be a figure worth respecting with but an element of fear. Many enjoy it and but are those whom just don't at all, like me. Fear isn't a good start unlike plainly respect with set boundaries.
Fear in respect works for them I know, but it just doesn't bear fruits all the times in that approach becomes suffocated in the process. What's the use of leading people who can't bring their selves to you? Fear is borne out of good intentions at times I've realized that, but still not approving of it though. Fail Eventualized After Retake, or FEAR, shouldn't be felt advanced at first instance, but it happens with people upon seeing you for the first time because of your position or hearing about you from someone. What I personally enjoy is a person who respect my person without putting theories to it.
They say, "if you love it, set it free and if it comes back to you, know it's yours" and it for me seem same as with respect and fear. My question then is, what to do if it never comes back? My fear is of losing what I love same as fearing to lose that which I respect. What I am against, is to have one fear me as a sign of respect. Why should you fear if you adore someone or respect them? As a leader I want to move with people who enjoys my being with them than they thole the time for their benefits.
In conclusion: why not respect with love? Who made it acceptable to respect with fear to an extent of people's fear over one's abilities? We need to abolish this unhealthy norm. We need to respect not of what you are, what you have, what you can do, no, but respect rather who you are as a person...dp
