Confucius on Leadership...

Confucius answered in The Analects - Book XII. 14, "Over daily routine do not show weariness, and when there is action to be taken, give of your best" when Tzu-chang asked about the government. Recently, the US's president, Barack Obama, had proposed the healthcare reform bill, which was nearly impossible to get passed by the Congress. When he became the president in 2008, he first proposed his plan of the Healthcare system in July, 2009. The Senate didn't pass the healthcare bill until March, 2010. Overall, the President gave his best to pass the bill, which was a success after a year. According to Confucius, the daily routines don't determine whether you are not a good politician, but when the action needs to be taken in certain situations, and it becomes successful proves that you are a good politician and worthy of governing.
