285. A Little Collectivism From Time to Time Wouldn't Hurt

Published: Oct. 12, 2021, 6:58 p.m.

Having an independent spirit, thumbing your nose to convention, and erecting the middle finger to all those you disagree with or feel offended by has a time and place. And let\'s be honest, if you\'re a fan of rugged individualism, it\'s most of the time and in most places.

\\n

Collectivism is putting the needs of the greater society (or team) before your own. Candidly, it\'s not in us to embrace collectivism wholeheartedly.

\\n

Positive change will not come from them. Change comes from you once you demand a balance between liberty and responsibility, individualism and collectivism, and possess the wisdom to discern when to turn which dial up or down. Good leaders do this regularly. Lousy leaders refuse to acknowledge the need. Start acting like a good leader.
