Leadership

Leadership.The dictionary defines it as capacity or ability to lead, but I think it's much more than that.More than just stepping up to the next rung of the ladder and having more power.It shouldn't be just that, it should be someone who steps up to the challenge and being someone different.Being drum major in band, which I guess is something important, and stepping up in other orginiztions.I think that especially when people are chosen to be their leaders it gives a more sense of, "I'd better step up."Though for the people who chose the person to be their leader they should base it off of if they think they'd be a good leader or not rather than, "He's my friend so I'll vote for him."That's the kind of feel that I'm getting still from when you voted me till now.It was your choice and if you don't think that I 'm fulfilling my duties than you shouldn't have voted for me.Other than that I think a leader should give guidance, so I'll give you any "guidancing" you need.Aside from that I have a few words to say about the leadership at Canyon.The "leadership" is horrible at canyon as a whole.I'm not accusing anyone of this or anything and I know there's good people in it who will become leaders of the future, but as a whole it's disappointing.For one, only the former leadership picked who would become their succesors, which isn't that bad I guess because the people who picked would be our peers, but still I don't think it's that great.Secondly leadership doesn't lead.They make decisions for us that most of us don't even agree with and if I understand correctly that is becuase of the teachers in leadership who seem to make the decisions.If your going to be a leader, don't let the teacher or the adults of it make all the decisions and change your decisions you should take a stand and make your ideas come true instead of what the adults think.Also if your going to be in leadership start making changes instead of choosing a theme for rallies and making decorations for dances and make some noticable changes.Elections for student presidents and such are also a waste.Most don't seem to do anything an example is the president.They don't seem to do anything, just figure heads whom we choose one day and forget the next.I'm not saying that the president or anyone else is bad, but if your in leadership you should be a leader and start leading us now and make some changes instead of standing back and saying that it's an easy A.I'm sure it won't be an easy feat to accomplish, but at least babysteps you'll have the rest of the year to do it.

Good way to kick off November?Sorry if there's no paragraphs, but I didn't feel like making any.These are only my opinions and are not to harm anyone if you are offended feel free to complain at me.If anything doesn't make sense I wasn't really paying attention so ignore it for now, tell me and I'll make appropiate changes.
