David Herle, in episode 263 of Paper Napkin Wisdom, delivers a bold truth: “Power is never given away. If you want it, you have to take it.” Real leadership isn’t about waiting for permission — it’s about stepping up, owning responsibility, and acting with conviction. Power comes to those who claim it, not those who wait. Leadership, David reminds us, must be visible and intentional. If you believe you can make a difference, don’t wait — show up and take it.
