What are my greatest leadership strengths? How can I apply those to my vision?

I believe my greatest leadership strengths include: holding a clear vision, listening to other people while maintaining the overall vision of the group, good communication skills, dedication to my vision, hard-working, and creative. Because of have a vivid picture of where to go, I will be able to define the steps I must take to reach my goal. I want to be a motivator and inspiration in my community. I think one of the most important qualities a leader can have is the ability to be open to other people's thoughts and suggestions. I admit that even though I have a clear vision, I might not know the best way to get there, or the best steps to take. I need to surround myself with people who can be useful, i.e. Blueprints family, my mentor, and community leaders. Good leaders are able to hold back their personal judgment while listening to others’ ideas and accept new ways of doing things. I believe that I dedicate all of my energy to whatever I am interested in. Right now I dedicate all of my energy to my friends, my schoolwork, and Campus Video; I literally do not have much time to myself. Even though I am the furthest from an artistic person, I have a very creative and active mind. When someone is bouncing ideas off of me, I can easily point out new and innovative ideas to help them with their project. This will help me think outside of the box, so to speak, and inhibit constraints.
