Quote by Theodore Hesburgh

The very essence of leadership is that you have to have vision. You can't blow an uncertain trumpet.

The very essence of leadership is that you have to have visi

Summary

This quote emphasizes that leadership requires a clear vision. A leader cannot inspire and motivate others if they are uncertain or lack a specific direction. Effective leadership involves having a well-defined sense of purpose and direction, as well as the ability to confidently communicate and act upon it. Comparable to a trumpet player who fails to produce a powerful or captivating sound when unsure, a leader must possess a strong sense of conviction and clarity to guide and unite their followers towards a common goal.

Through spontaneity we are re-formed into ourselves. It creates an explosion that for the moment frees us from handed-down frames of reference, memory choked with old facts and information and undigested theories and techniques of other people's findings. Spontaneity is the moment of personal freedom when we are faced with reality, and see it, explore it and act accordingly. In this reality the bits and pieces of ourselves function as an organic whole. It is the time of discovery, of experiencing, of creative expression.
