How it's taught & servant leadership.

This is so important to me, how I'm being taught or how I'm teaching someone.  There is so much that I want to learn in my martial journey and sometimes I can be guilty of wanting quantity over quality.  Recently I've come to realize that how I'm being taught is so important, actually more important than quantity of what's being taught.  

As an instructor or leader I need to be in tune to others mental state.  Are they ready to learn, are they open and willing to accept what I'm teaching?  Everyone is different and everyone is in different mental places.  As that leader, it's up to me to realize this and at times adapt my approach to suit.  

There is a concept called servant leadership.  This is the style of leadership that I employ and gets me very excited.  The definition of this is simply the leader/teacher exists to serve thier students/employees. I feel that the better I am with empathy and understanding the other person the better the leader/teacher I'll become.  In order for this to work I have to have an absence of ego.  There is NO WAY that servant leadership works if it's all about me as the leader/teacher.  

This is kind of a rambling blog but it really encompasses where I am mentally right now.  I'm getting taught the right way and I'm taking opportunities to servantly lead where I can in both my personal and professional life.  I'm pretty happy with where I am right now.
