Fitness of Leadership

Fitness of Leadership 05 16 2010

The other day I was at the gym and there was a woman with a body she developed through weight lifting. Lean, strong, muscular and sculpted. Women like this are rare. My father likes to watch women’s golf. And I know why it is seeing the poise, grace, elegance of them in motion. And you can tell from that comment I am not gay.

I would like to see more women lifting weights on TV. Better yet I would like to see Barrack Obama throwing his cigarettes out and putting on his gym clothes, and doing sit-ups every morning, maybe a few deep knee bends, a run around a track or a morning swim. Maybe a few pull-ups even if he can only do three or four.

If he did this he would be leading by example. Leading by example is the best form of leadership, the strongest form of leadership. And he is not so old of “term” that he cannot do this.

How many students are influenced by poor nutrition? It is one thing to delegate and another to demonstrate.

Diabetes, cancer, intelligence all of these problems are made worse by lack of exercise and or proper nutrition. The very water we drink in this country is stench. It is not water it is stench. Stench is the new term for water.

God Bless Those Who Think
