<p>I like how you combined between leaders being born and also made.

									<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I like that you mentioned how they may be gaining power consciously or subconsciously because for Lebron James, I&#8217;m sure he was just trying to enjoy what he liked; basketball so it wasn&#8217;t like he tried to be well known but he did. While for the other two, they must&#8217;ve strived, at least Frederick W. Smith to achieve his dreams.</p>

									<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hello, I like that you mentioned how although they&#8217;re all very successful leaders, one came from a nice stable background while another was poorer. Despite the drastic difference in background and advantages, both people turned out to be well known, successful, and admired which is very sweet that anyone can do well if they try.</p>

But like you said some people are born with leader-like qualities and are naturally gifted.</p>
