6.MOUTH(3functions)*(ii)Source Of Question: We will start with a statement from Douglas Cardinal "I am not an answering machine;I am a questioning machine.If we have all the answers,how come we are in such mess"?A great and exemplary leader must ask question."How did this come to be"?"How did it happen?"etc.He doesn't assume and he wont definately conclude.He wishes to know everything by asking the right question.A great leader wont support a course because of popular opinion.He will want to know the 'why' behind everything that happens whether successful or otherwise..A great leader will not be afraid to ask question until a definate answer is given. History is filled wth examples of incredible riches and astounding benefits people have received simply by asking the right question.If there is no question,there can never be answer.Asking question is one of the most powerful success principles of great leaders.They dont go with multitude,they wont maintain status quo,they ask question to discover the new and better method of doing things. Robert Kiyosaki asserts: "The most successful people are mavericks who are not afraid to ask why,especially when everyone thinks it is obvious".We were told the earth was centre of the universe,yet a man,copernius questioned this fact,and made a discovery that the earth and other planet in our solar system revolved around the sun.Years back,people said women shouldnt have the right to vote yet people like Emmeline Pankhurst and Susan B.Anthony questioned this assertion and fought for and win the right.In Nigeria,Twins were killed years back,Mary Slessor questioned this authority and stopped the killing.If you dont question authority or popular thinking,you wont know there are some amendments you are placed in leadership to make.ASK WHY TODAY'THEN YOU ARE ON YOUR WAY TO BE A GREAT LEADER.Have a nice Day.
