Not Being Leader Material.

They said I had the potential to be a leader, and they tried to train me up to my potential.  They failed because I’m not a leader, for one very good reason:

Leaders are both driven and committed. (OK, that’s two reasons, but they both apply to me.)

I’ve never been either driven or committed.

When things get serious, I skip. When anybody claims to be right, I switch off. As Bob wrote (and sang)

There are no truths outside the  Gates of Eden.

You probably haven’t noticed, but all the album versions of Bob Dylan’s early examples of genius seem to have disappeared from YouTube. I blame Google, since they seem to be responsible for most things that are wrong these days.
