Five Levels Of Leadership

What is the differences between ordinary and extraordinary peoples?

If you want to distinguish between an ordinary man and an extra ordinary man, begin with the difference in their attitude. An extraordinary man contributes more than 99% of his potential whereas an ordinary man doesn't even contribute 1% of what he can. The reason behind this difference lies in their attitude towards self and the outside world.We will further analyse this difference in the light of their behavioural styles in tough situations.

The first category is termed as quitter- He knows where he is supposed to go but his attitude doesn't allow him to face any change and all the possible challenges, that change can bring. The moment he sees situation is not in his accordance, he quits. He cannot survive in the difficult times and his sustenance is very short.

The second category of people are called as fault finders. These people analyse the tough situation carefully, figure out the areas of concern and have a strong logic to support their withdrawal from the situation. They are good in convincing others and self, for the reasons to back up from a tough situation or to quit the task. They do not foresee the solutions; their approach ends at problems.

Next to this are people who are enthusiastic, energetic and ambitious. They want to achieve heights and show a strong courage towards the same. However, they cannot retain these traits for long. When situation gets tough, they try two to three times and then give up. Their survival is higher than fault finders but not long enough to be productive. They are called dabblers.

Stressors are bit different from dabblers. They form the fourth category. They do not give up easily. Their focus is always on going back to the situation and find the solutions. For them, failure is not the solution. They will re-attempt a task till the time it gets completed. They have zest to excel and to succeed. They are dependable people and are very less in numbers.

Rarest of rare people come under the category of masters-the final and fifth category. These are people who have strong analytical skills and who believe in creating alternative ways and developing strategies. Like a stressor, they will get their way but their approach would be more refined and specific as compared to the stressor. Such people are rare in number and are considered to be ones who create histories.
