There are a few leaders that can stand stress and pessimism. A fight such as independency war of Turkiye contains too much stress so every decision becomes vital. Any wrong decision or evaluation can create a disaster. At the same time, to be leader of a fight (to be right is important) brings more stress because every decision will affect millions of people. So, every move is needed to be calculated very well.

Mustafa Kemal (Ataturk) is this sort of leader. He was aware of every danger or his responsibility. He fulfilled his tasks under a big stress very successfully. He also stated that he had never thought on pessimism during his tasks. Even though he was sick (his kidneys) and he faced unsuitable circumstances, he had never thought in pessimism. His durability was so high that many people might have died of heart attack. He was a real leader with his durability. He had never told lies to everybody about bad situations. He always gained hope to the Turkish nation. Also, he gains hope for other nations and individual targets. Also, his trust on the public power makes him to be a strong leader.

Rescuing a nation is a tough and big fight. When we add the modernization of a nation, it becomes like a mountain. But the character assists the people to come over all problems. So, Ataturk gave the world a great example for any similar fights.

Always Ataturk…..
