We call them people pleasers, politicians , yes men, brown nosers and many other names. When told to jump, they say how high. They are always fitting in and never standing out, many times hoping for personal gain or recognition. They go out of their way to please others, right or wrong. After all, they could make a mistake, they might not be liked, people might talk about them and on and on.

    

We see books like "The 10 Greatest Leaders Of The 21 ^st century". People buy them and read them trying to learn from their experiences. Who is likely to buy the book: "The 10 Least Known Yes Men In The World: How to Conform And Be Agreeable In Every Situation"? I seriously doubt it would set any book sales record unless maybe the least read book ever.

    

Why not become one of the people others want to please? Have a great idea? Stand up, defend it and convince others it is worthwhile defending. The world is crying out for great leaders. We have way too many mediocre followers already.

   

If others want to do something and you wholeheartedly agree, jump on the band wagon and work together to make it happen. If it isn't, be willing to step out and do what you want to do, what you think is right. Don't be afraid to stand out and be the best YOU that you can be.
