Passion versus Discipline

September 12, 2005

A few months ago, Lyndon Gregorio (creator of Beerkada) talked about the power of passion versus the power of discipline.  What he said at that time does makes sense.

“A person with discipline can work and get tired.  A person with passion can work and never gets tired.”

Now this is not just a strategy for success.  It can be a strategy for effective leadership.

It’s true that Filipinos tend to hate discipline.  However, Filipinos are a passionate people.  Here’s my theory: a good leader who can ignite and guide the passion of the followers towards positive means is an effective leader.

So much for my previous belief that discipline can make this country more prosperous.
