Forget Ocean's Eleven, Enter Msholozi's Eleven

So I found an email with that had a subject that read "FIFA World Cup - Player of the Year" in my mailbox and figured it was on of those chain mail one usually gets.

Imagine my surprise when I saw the jolly face of South African head of state, President Jacob Zuma (a.k.a. Msholozi), kitted out in football garb. The picture shows him in mid-stride, ball at his feet, looking very much a professional footballer if you excuse the protruding belly.

At first I grinned and laughed in amused shock then the grin turned to a smile in admiration. I saw a lesson in this despite being politically neutral.

When you are a leader, lead by example, work hard but don't forget to play hard too. :)
