The goal of any leader is help you become the best version of yourself.
I took a leadership class while I was studying an MBA and I think it has been one of the most important classes I have taken.
This allows me to notice if the management is good or not, that’s why this class it was so important to me, if I don’t like nor respect the management, I will move some place else.

Long time ago I was taking a CS course and the instructor told us that he will be the second best reacher we will ever have, which of course left us wandering who will be the best? ourselves? some archetype role model?
He ended us saying that the best teacher we will ever have is and will be Google, he will be able to teach whatever subject much quicker that anybody else, so he will aspire to be our second best teacher.
Since then, I have been trying to become the second best teacher for all my students =)
Sometime ago I was discussing with my thesis director about things we wanted on our lifes.
She told me that at that moment of her life she knew exactly what she wanted and that was the most important thing, I told her that that is important but sometimes is even more important to know what you dont want instead.

Several years ago, “Crown” told me that and he told me that he had it, Halloween 2019 proved that he was correct.
