Hey iam in the middle of james garlow’s book which applies the 21 laws to actual leaders in history and I think it would hep anyone better understand maxwell. If you already read maxwells book like I have twice it garlow’s book will help you apply the concepts. Leadership is nothing to be afraid of because it gives you a better life not just the reponsibility of leadership. I hope everyone a great life journey…

true i hear that “interpret external realities for everybody else”, though i don’t understand it. i would love a blog post. maybe you would just reply to this comment with a few examples…?

in the mean time i will say that i have directly applied principles from this book and it has served me well and been very effective. it has helped me serve other people.

8 months later, i am grateful to maxwell. the book has been tested through the initial high.

Your right, Maxwell’s laws can seem overwhelming, but he is the first one to state that no one person can possibly acheive all 21 laws. It cannot be done. Which is why the law of the inner circle is so important. A good leader picks people with strengths to balance out what his/her weak ones are. Simply put, leadership is influence, and these 21 laws will reveal your strongest, most natural areas of influence. It is more of an overview, while his book 360 Degree leader, or Developing the Leader Within You might provoke more thoughtful, tangible questions about how to improve.

You can probably tell I am decent advocate of Maxwell.

Hi Stanley,

These are good questions. I've noted them and in future posts I will expound on some principles that should clarify some of your confusion. Please stay tuned to the blog for updates, but if you want to get a head start on some reading, I recommend The Male Brain by Louann Brizendine (link: http://www.amazon.com/dp/0767927532/?tag=httpww...) and The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind by Julian Jaynes (link: http://www.amazon.com/dp/0618057072/?tag=httpww...).

Cheers,
Zack

It's all a total mystery to me. At what age do people normally realise that they are 'better than' everyone else and therefore feel the urge to lead them? Do they see everyone else as just floundering around and in desperate need of some ordering about? And do they know the destination before they start leading or do they just assume that some cause or other will turn up? Do they need to actually espouse 'the cause' passionately, or can they lead merely as an intellectual or financial exercise? Please enlighten me.
