If you want to live like a king, then you have to become the life leader for your life. so in this commandment, Santhosh Nair ( the author) gives examples to understand this commandment.
Commandment- 7: Declare to be a leader for life
Purposeless living impacts no one.
Those people are living life, without any purpose, they people like, high-speed train with no destination.
If you have to purpose, you are the only one that utilizes life very well, and in that return, you get the reward also.
“A leader is a person you choose to follow to a place where you wouldn’t go by yourself.” (life leader)
so Be your life Leader, and follow yourself, when you become the leader, then you are fully responsible for your life.
then after that, you get the right decision, knowing the cost of loss, and handling the loss of fair.
If we take responsibility for our life we have to respect ourselves.
In our life, we give each and every person with good respect, but when our time comes, we can’t give ourselves perfect respect, we think this is the ego situation. (life leader)
But Ego is different and self-respect is different. so When you become the leader of your life, then you should have to give self-respect to yourself, then you get the confidence to stay alone.
Leaders can also be defined as, ‘ Individuals who direct the ordinary folk in all areas of life – personal, professional, and spiritual- thereby challenging accepted norms, philosophies, rituals, cultures and set patterns of society.’
So If you become your life leader, then you succeed, after that you become the leader for other people also.
those people want to become like you, then they start following you and you become their leader also, and then you can help them to succeed in life. (life leader)
The leader also has another quality that is: ” Fail Fast to Succeed Sooner!”
so this quality helps you to learn, as much as you can, if you are afraid of failing, then you get the very little knowledge that gives are not succeed quickly.
Failing is the best way to learn, anything, if you fail, then you know the right path to success, and you learn and handle the pain of failing.
If this pain of failing you handle, then you get the learn, whatever time is required to succeed you are able to give them with motivation. (life leader)
