To get everyone together. They organize everything. They make they help make the team what the team is. An eagle scout would be one of my personal favorites, because ive known only two. And every single time ive known them, theyve been one of the best people ive ever met. You know, they are my top leader i have a leader list list. A leader to me would be, like, a teacher or, like, an academic dean or someone that, you know, does things and, you know, like they do it not because they want attention, but they do it because they want to help other people around them. But like just about everything else, there are good leaders and not so good leaders. So how do we become one of the good ones . For some guidance, we turn to jason ma. He wrote the book Young Leaders 3. 0. Hi, jason. Welcome to teen kids news. Hi. Its great to be here. How do you define a good leader . A good leader starts starts with a good beliefem. Syst i think a good leader is one who pretty much influences people to achieve a set of goals or a mission. And the great ones are really good at inspiring others. I think a good leader is good in communication, is compassionate, really cares about the project or the company or the club or the mission, communicates real well, and really brings out the best or brings out the goodness of the team around him or her. And theres many more to leadership, but those are some of the traits that i see that are important. Theres an old saying that says, leaders are born, not made. Is that true . Not at all, not at all. I think a leader could certainly been learned. You can learn to be a leader. You get coaches and mentors to help you. Do a lot of selfstudy with google, read books. Fiction, because i believe in the humility of continuously learning, improving, questioning good things. I think certain things that are so important about leadership is really to continuously hone your mindset or i call it practical psychology, where its really about your belief system or story and your management of your state, your emotion, as well as skills. And that with a strongcouple sense of direction, you couldnt basketball great Michael Jordan has said that you need to earn your leadership every day. How can we do that . I think its very important for you to lead by example. So people see you, people feel how you work, people can sense you. And, for example, i guarantee you Michael Jordan would probably be the first guy who comes in to practice and spend the longest hours practicing, shooting, his moves, his strategies, than most other people that are not as great as him. And you look at how great he and, like, other great players and great, successful leaders work, and one thing that i look into when i look at how successful they are is how do they prepare. Its really the quality of the preparation, the heart that has that pretty much result in how great they are. And that example about Michael Jordan a good example, by the way is he one time, i watched him play, way back and he had the flu, he was still playing, and he was giving 100 . And that is a good demonstration of leadership. Is being a leader something everyone should strive for . Or is it okay to just be a follower . I well, first of all, lead. Er needs followers the majority of people are followers. And be a good follower. Its fine. Everyone does not have to be a leader per se. Now, that said, a leader could also be a follower based on projects. But for certain projects, hey, part of your teammates one of your teammates might be the lead, and you become a follower, you become a support cast. So in a way, its situational. Make it dynamic and adaptable. I think thats very important. Thats interesting. Any last advice . Practice, learn. Practice, learn. Tap into your potential. You know, act be outcomefocused, be purposedriven. Know why you do things, because knowiny is more important than hows. And, of course, you have to define how, cause the road map, your execution plan in other words, your action plan to achieve the important goals all those are important, too. Because without great execution, nothing really matters. Jason, thanks for leading us to some great information about leadership. Thank you. Being a good leader doesnt mean just being the person ordering everyone else around. In fact, many people say that the best leaders have a talent for not making people im amelia.

When you hand in a paper, you might not get the grade you want if you miss an important step, because the difference between an a a p and a c can be p for proofreading. Yes, i know that computers have little red lines that alert us to misspellings, but you cant rely on that. Unless youre using papyrus, which is actually a reed, you misspelled read, but your computer probably wont catch that. However, your teacher will. As for autocorrecting, sometimes its helpful, but sometimes its not. First of all, when the computer autocorrects a misspelled word, it often ends up substituting a wrong word. Sometimes, you werent even at fault. Before you finish typing the word, the autocorrect guessed at what you intended t and finished it for you. Unfortunately, the computer got it wrong. Sure, you can deal with that problem by disabling your autocorrect, but the best way to make sure what you wrote is correct is to carefully proofread. Here a. Re some tips print what you wrote. Most of us find it easier to proof on paper than on the computer screen. Read very slowly. Look at one word at a time. And, if possible, read out loud.

Heres eric with flag facts. In 1910, a National Rifle competition was held in ohio. Thats when the members of arizonas rifle team realized they were the only ones without a state flag. But then, arizona wasnt a state yet. That would t years. Ake another two in 1912, arizona became our 48th state, the last in the continental u. S. To join the country. Arizona is one of my favorite flags. Actually, the last five states added to the union used very simplistic, distinctive designs, and arizona is one of those. Its known as the copper star flag because Copper Mining was so popular in arizona. Arizona still produces more copper than any other state in the natio but n. Its also known for its magnificent natural beauty. Since arizona is in the west, theres a reference to the setting sun the number 13 is chosen as a reference to the original 13 colonies. The beams are red and gold, like the arizona sunset. But theyre also the colors of the spanish conquistadores, arizonas first european visitors. Beneath the rays, a large field of blue represents loyalty. By the way, arizona is sometimes called the valentine state because it was admitted to the union on february 14.
