The shepherd always tries to persuade the sheep that their interests and his own are the same.
– Stendhal, 19th century French writer

Leading a successful flock

Be mindful of who you are following. By no means develop a skeptical temperament towards authority, but consider the quality of the leadership before you. Are you allowing informed consent to be the rule of your actions rather than blindly following? If not, educate yourself, follow your instincts, and speak up! As a parent or friend, you have a great responsibility to lead your family and friends in the right direction. Take the initiative to review the path you’re taking your loved ones down and revise it to make the healthiest and most mutually beneficial choices for everyone.
