Where is the catch?

Politicians use everything in their control for political reasons instead to make things better! How ingrained in the spirit of the people this thought became, is evident. Of course, you can take into account that there are differences in opinions in different countries.

Apparently, what I said concerns on most of the politicians. They become politicians because of their desire to possess the power. Yes, the power. Here that power still has neither a good nor a bad meaning.

Let's say they are just motivated, regarding their forebears' work to make things better. Indeed, I believe, in the beginning, many of them have great ideas how to change living circumstances in their community, local or state level. Probably they truly believe in what they have been talking while leading their campaigns. Optimism prevails when election's time. Optimism over candidates, and optimism over electors. Support of the citizens makes them feel very special, important, and stronger.

I know, I felt it for the moment when I was at the start position of the political career' road. I was offered and supposed to be in a high political position in my city. I was very interested in due to my believing that is a chance to fulfill my desires to make people in my community more satisfied to live here. Was considerating, but then I found out something about was struggling, and what made me to stop my political running, at least for now.

Of course, there is always a part of the population that has a slumber in it and is awaiting its awakening. That is the other part of the story, the one where is needed a public awareness campaign. I think that is one thing which has to become implemented in the elementary education program. By the way, did you find yourself regretting because you didn't vote? I did! But, as I said that is another story's subject so let me go back now on the track I started.

What could make politicians serve better to their citizens? I think next:

1)   The fact if their aspirations are in a harmony with their citizen's aspirations, and yes, that is a huge range of desires that stream to be satisfied. 

2)   For that, they really need to 'love' their community. They have to be ready for that. But that often is neglected as 'a piece of cake'. Though, it is not. On the contrary, I think, when the ruler's positions became stronger and stronger with a time passing, that becomes the biggest problem, especially in local and small community. On purpose, I used here the word 'love' although recently, an experienced old politician lady told me: 'In politics, there's no love, there no hate!' And I think those were great words. As long as no one wants to hurt Codex that put the wellbeing of the majority, in the first place. Here the political power has been highlighted with the negative tone.

3)   If strong politicians' words have a force that strives to become realized. If they show that have an intention to have a wellbeing and investment-friendly oriented influence on a widespread perception that exactly they deserve to be elected. Here they need an excellent team around themselves, besides, a required acknowledgment and competence, they have to be honest and 'rely on' a type of servants. I dare to say that the team is an extremely important factor that can emphasize a party's heightened determination, in good or in a bad way.

4)      Nothing without a real action! They have to show respect to the citizens in a meaning how they perform their 'political lifestyle' and observe the power of future elections. Therefore, they have to be able to separate facts from their fiction.

How we rate politicians work, is depending on the improvement of our living standard. It is also depending on the fact if citizens are continuously leaving the place because they cannot assure their existence. I myself am the first one that would like to live in nice and a clean city, above all where economic development and entrepreneurial activity will have politicians' support. And where all public services will function well. In the community where the ruler will consider what different citizens' structures needs are. And where the ruler will not be oriented to improve the quality of life only on the territory that has an importance for him himself, but to spread his positive activity on the whole territory under his authority.

What when someone has been 'totally unfit for politics services' but still has been governing? Are you going to react? As an individual, you cannot make any influence on the majority, so again the team is needed. But not any team.

Politics is the strongest mechanism that rules over the world. There is not a piece of it where politics has not implemented. Sooner or later, each of us is going to be aware, of such a strong mechanism's power. Some on positive and some on a negative way. Simply, daily life' circumstances just bring us into it.

Hence, do we prefer to continue to hold our pulse steady or we are ready for the action, and for the extra pulsing?
