Do you agree or disagree? - Being a leader is better than a follower.- |
It is often said that being a leader is very stressful. Also, some people might say that it would be better to be a follower than be a leader because they can spend their free time on doing their hobbies and being with family. However, I strongly argue that being a leader is very beneficial since they can have more chances to be successful in their lives. Moreover, leaders can feel more fulfillment than their followers. To begin with, pioneers are more likely to achieve what they really want to. Lots of opportunities can be seen when they work actively in many fields. Thus they can seize the chances to success more often than any other person. One of the richest celebrities in Korea, the late Jung Joo young, was a very poor child when he was young. He did everything he could in order to survive, such as selling gums and polishing others` dress shoes. One day, he started to run a small business and he managed the company very well with his pre-experiences and good leadership. While running the company, he got so many chances such as being invested and undertaking important construction plans. As a result, he finally succeeded in his life, and established a famous huge company, "Hyun-Dai." With his spirit of pioneer and leadership, he could be very successful in his life. On top of that, leaders can feel more sense of fulfillment than their followers. Even though followers are also can be satisfied with their output, leaders are the only ones who are rewarded with great fulfillment. When I was in college, I took charge of being a director in my play club. It was very painstaking and hard for me to do every task that was needed to be done, such as getting fund, advertising, and working with computer graphics for my play`s background. After the play was finished successfully, every member of my team was very delighted. Surprisingly, everybody gave me a present in order to appreciate my efforts to make the play perfect. I was very touched, and could feel a lot of satisfaction. Like my experience, leaders receive a great amount of happiness when a project is successfully done. To summary, I believe that being a captain of a group is much beneficial because of more opportunities to be successful and much fulfillment that others can`t have. Some people might say being a leader often puts them in a serious danger. However, I totally agree with the proverb that goes, "No pains, no gains." |
