Initiative
"Cultivate the ability to make decisions and think alone. Do not be afraid of failure, but learn from it."
Initiative is a great quality because it allows you to get a head start in something. Let's say you have an assignment due today, but everyone else in the class didn't finish. You need have that initiative to get started on the assignment coming up. Having initiative is also a quality of being a leader. A leader shows the examples and the rest follow his or hers directions. To be successful you can't fail only find ways that didn't work. You have to learn that this and this didn't work so then manipulate the formula or strategy you were using. Initiative is also key in basketball. Leaders of the team show others what to do in practice. If you don't know what to do someone else will know. Thats having good listening skills. Initiative is something you have to do on your own and that's how you get better at taking initiative.
