What are the chief traits of a good political leader?

Certain chief traits of a good political leader determine his longevity as a politician. A good political leader, and a good statesman, start at the same point of politics but go in parallel directions, in different marathons, where they never meet in purpose or goal. They end up at their chosen destinations that may be good for them or the country. 

An ideal politician should have, in a good percentage, a combination of statesmanship, higher discipline, courage, humanity, and an astute mind. He should be a super leader who can take correct decisions at the nick of the moment, show an undying zeal to work relentlessly for the sake of his country, and capabilities to get into the depth of any matter and implement a most plausible solution. A good political leader would firstly consider himself as a servant of people and work in the direction of growth of the country, in all its aspects.

Politics is the most widely sought-after field of business today. Many youngsters with a dream and a vision plunge into its enormities without thinking about the consequences and challenges. A few knowing youngsters rise to places of eminence. This field is not about glamour or glitz or Planetary combinations that is advantageous till the end. 

Politics is an international business and a field-tested and tried by those capable of strategizing and creating history. A wrong move from a politician would change the course of history in gigantic proportions, but it would put a country on a higher ranking, with a pertinent decision.

Before you leap into this field, it is important to know whether you will succeed or fail in it. Considering the services of an expert vedic astrologer would be of immense help. 

Look for personality traits like communication, maturity, dominance, oratory, courage, leadership, diplomacy that are important to succeed in politics. These are the chief traits of successful political leaders.
