DO NOT GIVE UP: When Others Only Care About Themselves

When it comes to people caring about themselves there are four kinds of people in the world:
#1 Those that care only about themselves and screw everyone else. That is pretty self explanatory.
#2 Those that do not care about themselves and expect no one to do the same. 
#3 Those that will never care about themselves but go out of their way to care about others.
#4 Those that care about themselves to ensure that they can continue to care about others.
Personally, I like the fourth type of person. That individual recognizes that in order for them to be a successful leader they have to take care of themselves in order to continue to be in a position to take care of others. This leader is one that almost always leads by example. They show their followers that they must take care of themselves first in order to be good enough to take care of and lead others.
Remember, Actions over Words all day, every day!
