Leading By Example Essay

710 Words3 Pages

Do you lead by example? If not you should and if you do good, because not all people lead by example! Most people copy others they think are are cool, or are their friends. I have been there once. I am fourteen years old and I have seen many movies, and read some books, and seen people on the news doing many wrong things then many people follow. In movies and books the main character does something and like at my house my little brother follows. Leading by example is put into two groups reality and fiction. Leading by example is fiction and reality. People are watching and not just older people, young kids to. When my family was at Walmart there was a casher and on his blue shirt it said, "I served in war." When I saw that I felt the need to shake his hand and tell him thank you for …show more content…

Many people follow others, I know this by others helping people. Everyone has to look up to someone and I look up to my uncle and my older brother. My uncle and brother are great people they showed me how to act and to be very respectful towards others even in the hardest times. Not to point fingers my uncle says, “when you are in battle then are no fingers to be pointed because when you point that finger it will get shot off, or they will find you and capture you.” If someone is looking up to you don 't push them away pull them closer, do the right thing and be the bigger person. Help them out by being a leader, and do not let them make wrong choices show them the right path to run down. Leading by example gets put into two topics reality and fiction. Leading by example should be in the reality side. The reason for that is in my 14 years of life and in your life you have seen someone watch a person then start acting like them, or maybe that person was you. That is why I think that leading by example is reality not

  • Figurative Language In Hermann Hesse's Siddhartha

    666 Words  | 3 Pages

    In Siddhartha, by Hermann Hesse, Siddhartha struggles throughout his life to attain his goal of enlightenment. Just like everyone, Siddhartha started by following his teachers and mentors. But as he became more experienced and formed his own opinions, he began to lead himself to his goal instead of following others. Although following in the footsteps of another to reach a goal is much more simple, Hesse uses characterization and figurative language (similes and metaphors) in order to show that people who lead themselves to their goal will gain more wisdom and knowledge than following another. As people, we are all prone to follow the easiest route to success, even though we might not achieve as much if we lead ourselves.
