Queen Victoria was an incredibly talented painter.

As reported in the Surrey news, two original paintings by Queen Victoria were discovered among a treasure trove of family heirlooms at a cottage in Surrey. The large oil paintings depict vases of flowers and are believed to date back to the second half of the 19th Century.

One of the works features purple irises in a green vase, with a posy of small flowers and other items placed in or around the container. The other depicts a vibrant mix of pink, yellow, orange and white blooms in a blue vase resting on yellow fabric. Hydrangeas dominate the composition while a posy of flowers rests at the base of the vase.

Develop these 5 traits to be a true Leader.

If you want to be a successful leader someday, it's essential to understand the fundamental difference between a boss and a leader. A leader helps others while a boss helps only themselves.

Leaders are those who, figuratively speaking, take full custody of their employees so they can truly excel at what they do.

Even though hard skills are necessary from an employee point of view, it is the soft skills that allow a leader to succeed in managing their team. Below, i have listed 5 soft skills that anyone can hone, and become a better leader.

Read on to know the 5 traits of a true leader.

Showing Empathy - A great leader is one who really 'gets' their team - being able to connect to their struggles, show compassion, and offer guidance and support. It's an amazing experience when your boss is someone you can turn to for advice and encouragement - it can strengthen relationships and build an atmosphere of respect and loyalty. Being able to step into someone else's shoes is essential for being a fantastic leader who can help people succeed.

2. Accepting diversity in all its forms. A great leader is somebody who wholeheartedly appreciates, values, and cherishes diversity. Having different perspectives, opinions, and expertise can bring amazing benefits, and anyone stuck in a narrow mindset has no place in a leadership role.

3. Open to feedback - Successful team leadership means having honest communication skills, including giving and receiving feedback. Leaders should always be open to hearing feedback - it's the key to making sure everyone is on the same page!

4. Be respectful of others' capabilities - Leaders should always delegate tasks and distribute the work fairly & respectfully. Great leaders will often check with their team to make sure it's ok for them to take on particular tasks; this goes a long way in strengthening the leader-team bond.

5. Every failure is a learning opportunity - If something doesn't go according to plan, a tried-and-true leader would take the time to look for the causes of the failed project and make the best of it by learning from it! Rather than pointing fingers, they focus on taking proactive steps to ensure similar results don't happen again. It's a great way to improve outcomes in the future.

And that's it! i hope you liked it~

How to Be with Each Other’s Suffering: Elie Wiesel

"We are all our brothers’ keepers… Either we see in each other brothers, or we live in a world of strangers… There are no strangers in a world that becomes smaller and smaller."

In this wonderful piece, Elie Wiesel, a Holocaust survivor and Nobel Peace Prize laureate, has embraced the shared responsibility and what it means to be a human.

When we take time to quiet the noise of the everyday hustle and bustle of life, we can start to hear that we are all interconnected. But our sensitivity to this idea can become dulled over time. Wiesel reflects:

We are all our brothers’ keepers… Either we see in each other brothers, or we live in a world of strangers… There are no strangers in a world that becomes smaller and smaller. Today I know right away when something happens, whatever happens, anywhere in the world. So there is no excuse for us not to be involved in these problems. A century ago, by the time the news of a war reached another place, the war was over. Now people die and the pictures of their dying are offered to you and to me while we are having dinner. Since I know, how can I not transform that knowledge into responsibility? So the key word is “responsibility.” That means I must keep my brother.

Nearly 150 years after Van Gogh spoke of a man of faith, energy and warmth doing something, no matter how meaningless and vain life can feel, Elie Wiesel encourages us to take on a cause and get involved. Though it may just seem like a small act, it can make a big, worldwide difference. Why not be the one to take a step and make a change today?

In his own words: "If somebody needs me, I must be there".

This empathetic thought resonates deeply with us all and serves as a reminder of the strength that can be born out of solidarity.
