The document discusses three keys to self-direction and leadership: intention, awareness, and confrontation. Intention involves wanting something and believing it is achievable. Awareness refers to being present and mindful. Confrontation means facing realities to grow and learn the truth. The document provides tips for developing each key, such as setting goals, practicing mindfulness, and examining biases. Leaders take responsibility and mobilize resources to address problems or opportunities. Self-efficacy also influences leadership, as people with high self-efficacy view challenges as opportunities.

- 9. Will Ella Wheeler Wilcox (1850-‐1919) You will be what you will to be; Let failure find its false content In that poor word "environment," But spirit scorns it, and is free, It masters =me, it conquers space, It cows that boasdul trickster Chance, And bids the tyrant Circumstance Uncrown and fill a servant's place. The human Will, that force unseen, The offspring of a deathless Soul, Can hew the way to any goal, Though walls of granite intervene. Be not impa=ent in delay, But wait as one who understands; When spirit rises and commands, The gods are ready to obey. The river seeking for the sea Confronts the dam and precipice, Yet knows it cannot fail or miss; You will be what you will to be!
