-

His Highness Shaikh Mohammad Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, stressed the importance of enthusiasm in developing the UAE. “We must remain enthusiast­ic to develop country,” Shaikh Mohammad said.

In the latest “Leadership­Flashes” shared on his Instagram account, Shaikh Mohammad made it clear that no project or idea is launched in the UAE unless he is totally convinced about it. “We must always support and follow up on the developmen­t of our country. Mohammad Bin Rashid is not working alone. We have teams, we have young people who work relentless­ly, we have a leadership and we have a vision. There is no project or idea launched in the UAE unless I am totally convinced with it,” Shaikh Mohammad said.

I want my people to have a high physical fitness, the elderly and the young alike. If you are physically good, you will be useful... Now you must be the best, do not sit idle.”

Active and energetic

Last January, Shaikh Mohammad launched the hashtag, #Leadership­Flashes, on his Instagram account to share practical experience­s as well as his leadership vision with his followers. In the previous video, which was published earlier this month, Shaikh Mohammad had stressed the need to remain active and energetic.

He stressed that he wanted the people of the UAE to have a high level of physical fitness because it was strongly linked to productivi­ty at work because lazy people can’t be productive at all. Shaikh Mohammad noted that a physically fit person is useful to society, while an inactive person will just get out of the race of excellence after his inactivity turns into laziness, and then he or she will become miserable.

Shaikh Mohammad added: “I want my people to have a high physical fitness, the elderly and the young alike. If you are physically good, you will be useful... Now you must be the best, do not sit idle. Otherwise, you will be out of the race and you will be miserable. The lazy cannot produce anything.”
