I'm a shepherd, not a sheep, and I've always prided myself on being a leader and not a follower.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I consider myself a leader. I am not a follower.
There are quite enough sheep already - be a shepherd: be somebody who's bold and who leads.
People, like sheep, tend to follow a leader - occasionally in the right direction.
Too many leaders act as if the sheep... their people... are there for the benefit of the shepherd, not that the shepherd has responsibility for the sheep.
The shepherd always tries to persuade the sheep that their interests and his own are the same.
I've always been a leader my whole life. I've always led. I didn't know how to do anything else.
I'm not a follower. I'm a leader. And anyone who speaks their mind is always criticised.
We herd sheep, we drive cattle, we lead people. Lead me, follow me, or get out of my way.
Like a lot of people, I have been a leader in some things, and I've been a follower in some things. I know how to work on a team. And most of life, frankly, to get things done you have to get done, you've got to work as a team.
I'm no leader; I'm a little humble follower.
