Get together everyone who is qualified to be a leader, and pick the one who wants to be leader least.... because he's probably the one that cares the most, rather then just wanting to get off by being the boss of people.

A good leader is one who hates being a leader yet still gets chosen for it.

Isn't that just a myth?

Of course it is, because you can't lead a country if you don't want to do so. Somebody with no ambition to be leader would make a terrible one. Also those who actually want to lead pay more attention to the issues they invest more time and effort into winning and as such they are more qualified to run a country then someone who doesn't actually have any want to be a leader.

How many times have people freaked out when their leaders call it quits. If you elect someone who does not want to lead , they will only remain in the position a short period of time resigning early. If they don't resign they will leave their policies and decisions to the people who actually have a vested interest in them.

You need someone who is ambitious somebody who wants to lead and has the character and ambition to do so. Can you name a single leader of any country who did not want to lead? Now is that leader as good as even 10% of those who actually wanted to lead? Its easy to point out leaders who had ambition but were pretty bad, but its not as easy to find leaders who had no ambition to lead yet not only led but were superior to those who actually wanted to lead?
