Leadership begins with us
Listen to this Insight
<p>Let us face the truth. We're quick to point fingers at the government, but let's be real, we're not innocent either. We complain about corruption, but we're guilty of perpetuating it in our own lives. We implement same practices in our own day to day activities. The people in power are just like us - human beings with flaws and imperfections.</p><p><br></p><p>They were once ordinary citizens, just like us, and they've been shaped by the same societal norms and values. So, it's no surprise that they end up doing the same things we do. Some citizens might justify their actions as revenge against the system, while others might see it as a means of survival.</p><p><br></p><p>But at the end of the day, it all comes back to us. We're the ones who enable corruption, who turn a blind eye to injustice, and who perpetuate the status quo. We're the ones who need to change. If we all took responsibility for our actions, if we all did the right thing, the country would be a better place.</p><p><br></p><p>The government would be forced to change, because the people in power would be held accountable by a society that values integrity and justice. We need to remember that we're the leaders, not the politicians. They're just there to serve us and ensure the country runs smoothly.</p><p><br></p><p>It's time for us to take ownership of our actions, to recognize the power we hold, and to demand better from ourselves and our leaders. We can't just sit back and complain about the system; we need to be the change we want to see.</p>
