The best leaders
are hardly noticed.
The next best
are loved and praised.
Then come those
who are feared.
And finally those
who are ridiculed.
Leaders who do not trust
will not be trusted.
The best doing,
does itself.
Therefore,
When a great leader
accomplishes anything,
Everyone thinks
it just happened naturally.
(Lao Tzu)
