Topic: What makes people want a higher rank ,a desire to serve or lord? (Read 117 times)

Change is the name of life.  Flowing water always remains pure.  Impurity starts when it is stored manually or naturally at one place.  Small creatures start created in this blocked water.  Bad smell starts coming out of it.

In the same way; man should try his best to move forward.  Moving forward does not only mean earning more and more wealth.  We may progress even by gaining more and more knowledge about the field of our taste; like; interest.  It may be music; dancing; atheletics; yoga; science; forestry etc. etc.  And more importantly as the subject raised by you about getting promotion to next higher ranks.


Previously getting promotion in bitcoin forum was automatic i.e. with the passage of time and your posts you will get definite promotion to next higher rank.  So everybody was becoming a leader irrespective of the fact that he deserves to be ranked up or not.   But now you must have to acquire knowledge about the forum; help others; post quality posts.  Only then you will get higher rank.

If one gets promotion by acquiring more and more knowledge; I think there is nothing wrong in it.  The other issue depends on person to person.  Some persons after getting power become more polite but on the other hand there may be many who be feeling himself stucked up snooty.  

So it  differs person to person.  But all should try to move up; though I see it is very difficult; I could earn just 3 merits and have to  require 7 more for next position  

The world a jungle, you need to survive. If you had a chance to step unto other people will likely do it because if you don't, you'll be the one who is going to step up by someone.

it is so true of what you say, that they only want it all and especially want to be respected, it is one of the desires in social status in the life of society.

Man is selfish by nature. Whether we accept or not, it is the truth. But our selfishness is at different level and we show this differently based on how we are mold since childhood. Some are aiming for higher positions, because they can have power, money or wealth and  can gain respect from their subordinates.

Many will say that a desire to serve but sometimes I see it hypocritical because if leaders were really servants ,there will not be corruption etc.I personally believe that they want to move higher,accommulate wealth ,and have people bow to them.Most of them never get there because of the people but for themselves.
