1 4-H FLASH Cowley County 4-H News April 2015 Cowley County Extension 311 E. 9th P.O. Box 538 Winfield, KS Staff: Kelsey Holcomb, 4-H Youth Development Jill Zimmerman, Ag and Natural Resources Becky Reid, Family and Consumer Sciences Cindy Musselman, Office Professional In this issue: Regional 4-H Day Results Livestock Dates Discovery Days 4-H Camp Who s in the Driver s Seat? When things go wrong/bad in life, who takes the responsibility? Think about how often you see a person blaming someone else for the problem. People act like passengers. True leaders are the drivers in their lives. Drivers take responsibility. They are accountable and hold themselves accountable for the events that happen. Drivers understand that while they may not have any control over the situation or an outcome, they do have control over how they react. Passengers become victims, having no control over their destination or attitude. Leaders understand that while some things go wrong, their attitude and approach is their responsibility when facing adversity. They take responsibility for the direction of their lives. A list published in Forbes reveals 14 things every successful person has in common. Number 6 is: They take accountability for themselves and their actions. Number 6 on the list of 10 Traits of Extremely Successful People on elitedaily.com is They are self-reliant and take responsibility. Many other lists of attributes of successful people/ great leaders also contain similar wording. Is this a coincidence? I don t think so. Consider instances where you have witnessed yourself or others mistakes. When a person acknowledges that they have made a mistake, accepts wrongdoing and apologizes; they reveal their true character or integrity. Now consider an instance where someone acknowledges that a mistake was made, but lays blame on someone/something else. They display a lack of integrity and trust of followers is lost. Dr. Tim Elmore suggests three areas in which leaders choose to be drivers instead of passengers: -Positive Attitude (Their thinking and perspective on life.) -Persistent Fortitude (Their determination in response to tough situations.) -Purposeful Latitude (Their flexibility based on a clear focus on future direction.) Now, consider where you are in your life. Who s sitting in the driver s seat? Are you taking control of your actions and attitude, or are you allowing situations to dictate your response?
