For me learning about the variety of different leaders that impacted history has allowed me to grow as a leader. The variety of examples that this class has provided me with has opened my eyes to what leaders looked like throughout history. Through projects like the leaders then and now I was able to look closely into two leaders who had different strategies to leadership. For Haunani Trask, she chose the loud, proud and infuriated route while Alexander the Great took the route of having a plan of action. Overall these two leaders have taught me that I need to have a plan of action but I also need to voice my opinion with confidence. However, despite these two leaders another leaderʻs quote has stuck out to me. This quote is by Baruch Spinoza and he exclaims, “The world would be happier if men had the same capacity to be silent that they have to speak”
One thing that has affected my personal motivation was the Kahiau project; although this project is for a grade this project has allowed me to focus in on the problems of our society. Rene Descartes enforces that “It is not enough to have a good mind, the main thing is to use it well”. To me this quote is reflected in my project because most people are capable of helping those who are having a rough patch. However, it’s their actions that truly prove what type of people they are. Overall my Kahiau project has pushed me to go forward and make a difference Citations: Descartes, R. (2001). Rene Descartes Quotes.
