The most desired thing.
All human beings want influence at the core. More than anything else. We want it over our spouses, our children, our work, etc.
There is nothing wrong with wanting influence, but it is how it is achieved. Do we get it at the barrel of a gun? Through lies? Or the best way, through reputation?
Influence is attained by your reputation
Which is built by your relationships with people
Which are established through service
Based on Truth.
Work on your relationships
