My goal in life " In the military, I learned that ‘leadership’ means raising your hand and volunteering, for the tough, important assignments." -Tulsi Gabber That means that leadership is not only leading or guiding a group of people it is about sacrificing yourself in the hard times My goal is to be a successful officer in the military by being a good leader, having discipline, and by obtaining an advanced degree in military science. Firstly; Leadership is the activity of leading, influencing, and motivating group of people or an organization to achieve a goal or complete a mission .In military leader ship is the one of the most important attributes for officers so, in order to be a good leader in the army i have to be always confident …show more content…

another example of military rituals is saluting officers who have higher ranks .show up before time in military is essential due to the fact that no one likes a person who is late especially for officers being late is huge problem for example: if the officer is not showing up on time that means that he will not be a good role model for his solders especially recruits who need guidance and support …show more content…

And it is the the key of success and it will help me so much to achieve my goal in military to get a high rank but it will not be easy at all because I need to put a lot of effort and work hard even though i might face some difficulties such as: being busy all day and don’t have enough free time could be a problem so, thus I need to manage my time, do my duties and never procrastinate . so, in order to achieve that goal I need to get bachelor degree in military science and security studies and also I have to get the master's degree in military science to help me to get higher ranks because if I didn’t get the masters degree on military science I am not going to get promoted to a rank higher than lieutenant colonel. . Therefore: I have to do my best due to the fact that ministry of defense choses the elite officers from all military branches in Saudi Arabia and officers from other countries to get the master's degree

  • Don Quixote Unamuno Analysis

    Now that we have started to read part of Don Quixote and Unamuno, there is something that resonates with me. It has to deal with the following quotes from Unamuno: “The one who considers himself the leader is often being led, and the faith of the hero feeds on the faith he inspires in his followers….We must usually be believed so that we may believe in ourselves; if it were not a monstrous heresy and a manifest impiety I would maintain that God is nourished by the faith that men feel in Him” (Unamuno, 160). It is through this quote that I, or so I believe, view being a leader in a new light. While it commonly thought that a leader, say a supervisor or your boss, is leading you (say by simply giving you instructions) it is rarely the case that we believe that we are also leading them.
