“Education is the ability to listen to almost anything without losing your temper or your self-confidence.” ~Robert Frost
An attribute of a great leader is the ability to “temper” one’s anger.
I recall a few years ago a leader telling me boldly, “I’ve got a bad temper; you just need to know that.” I thought to myself, “no, you have no depth of thought, an even shallower self-esteem, little control over you actions, very little maturity and your probably not an effective leader.” I was right.
How are you with controlling your temper? Those you are leading will grow or shrink to your maturity level.
P.E.A.C.E.
Proverbs 29:11, “A fool gives full vent to his anger, but a wise man keeps himself under control.”
