Leadership has an extraordinary power," says William A. Cohen, in The Art of the Leader. "It can make the difference between success and failure in anything you do .... Leadership has to do with getting things accomplished by acting through others. Regardless of your own abilities, there are many important goals that you cannot attain without the help of others."

Those who aspire to MLM leadership must cultivate seven essential character traits, as follows:

TRAIT NUMBER 1 - DRIVE

Drive is another word for ambition. It is a hunger for success, a fire in your belly. Unlike the other six traits, drive is hard to acquire if you don't already have it. Some people gain ambition through financial hardship or humiliating setbacks. They are driven by the need to prove or redeem themselves. But many more are simply born with it. Drive gives you the power to overcome obstacles, slough off rejection, and endure disappointment.
