Set the example and they will follow

Set the example and they will follow. I have heard it said time and time again but never realized it untill now. It seems that with my team at work when I am in a good mood so are they, when I stay on task so do they. I wish I could say that every day I set an example for them to follow, but the truth is I don't. Sometimes I just don't want to wake up early, and sometimes I have a bad attitude all day. On those days it seems like the whole team doesn't perform well, or we all make tons of mistakes. The truth is if you are a leader the best thing you can do is Set the best example that you can every day, and they will follow.
