Leaders in Costume: The Frauds Who Pretend to Lead

Leadership Is a Balancing Act—Not an Illusion of Control

A true leader knows they control nothing beyond their own choices. Everything else? It either aligns with precision, or it does not.

The precision of reality is not visible to us, because to see it, one would have to know everything about everything. And who knows everything? Only the one who created everything.

So, real leadership is not about control. It is a balancing act. That’s all it ever is. You do your absolute best—your real, honest, full best. Not the half-assed, “I kinda tried” version, but your full capacity.

And in this balancing act, getting it right counts double, because that’s all you could have done. You had nothing to do with the objective outcome—only with how well you aligned with precision.

Life itself is one big scale.

• The size of your scale? That depends on the weight of your responsibilities.

• The bigger the responsibility, the larger the scale, the more precise the balance must be.

• Every problem is just an imbalance.

• Every solution is a realignment.

If you fail to balance your scale, you fail as a leader. It’s that simple.

The Frauds Who Wear the Costume of Leadership

Now, let’s talk about the frauds.

The costumed leaders—those who wear the title, the suit, the name, but hold none of the weight.

They sit in high positions, talk about world problems, and then… do absolutely nothing.

And their favorite trick? Endless discussions.

They gather at summits, conferences, meetings—year after year, decade after decade—talking about world issues. They repeat the same nonsense, over and over, as if words alone will solve anything.

Then, they frame their stagnation as progress.

“Discussion is the first step to change.”

“We’re raising awareness.”

“At least we’re having the conversation.”

You’ve been having the conversation for thirty years.

At what point does the “first step” become blatant inaction?

True leaders see through the nonsense.

These frauds aren’t leading. They’re preserving their own comfort. They refuse to act, refuse to make real decisions, refuse to balance the scale.

And deep down, they know it. That’s why they feel guilt. That’s why they hide behind excuses, meetings, and feel-good words. That’s why they pretend problems are too complex to solve.

It’s not complex. They’re just cowards.

When Leaders Claim “It’s Too Complicated”—It’s a Lie

World hunger? Not complicated.

Peace? Not complicated.

Any fundamental, long-standing issue? Not complicated.

So why aren’t they solved?

Because the frauds who wear the leadership costume have no business being leaders.

If you cannot balance the scale, if you cannot execute solutions, then step down. Remove the costume. Take off the mask. Do something else.

Because real leadership is not for you.

The Illusion of Complexity Is a Cover for Incompetence

And yet, these fake leaders continue to act like problems are impossibly complex.

“We have to bring both sides together.”

“We have to consider the full scope of history.”

“We have to navigate political landscapes.”

Shut up.

The truth? You don’t want to solve the problem. You just want to sit in your costume, collect your benefits, and delay action indefinitely.

The proof?

Look at your so-called “professional” followers.

The ones who attend your summits, your events, your galas. The ones who walk up to you, pretending to care.

“How do we solve world hunger?” they ask, sipping champagne at a networking event.

You know what the real answer is?

Mind your business.

What are you going to do about billions of starving people? Nothing.

The only real answer?

Do your damn best in your sector.

• Align yourself.

• Do your absolute best.

• Let that ripple outward.

That’s it. That’s all anyone can do.

World hunger isn’t solved because the people in charge are liars.

• They cut corners in one area.

• They steal from another.

• They undercut this sector.

• They ignore that one.

Then, when everything falls apart, they stand around confused, pretending it’s some great unsolvable mystery.

It’s not. It’s mathematics.

If you shower some days, but not others, you’ll stink.

If you brush your teeth some weeks, but not others, you’ll rot.

If one vital organ stops working, you’ll die.

Yet, these frauds pretend like the world doesn’t work in systems, in precision.

They expect nature to align perfectly, but when it comes to human systems, they think they can operate in chaos, corruption, and imbalance—and suffer no consequences.

They lie to themselves the most.

They sit in their costumes, drinking their smoothies and cocktails, basking in their titles and fake importance, believing the world recognizes them as leaders.

But the world does not recognize frauds.

It only tolerates them until their time runs out.

The Reckoning Will Be Precise

One day, the weight of their fraud will collapse on them.

And when it does—when they scream under the pressure of their own lies, corruption, and cowardice—

They will finally see with full clarity.

They will see the truth of the criminal behavior they have engaged in.

And the label of “criminal” will be tattooed on their foreheads, forever.

While they walk, burning, in the fire of the disease they created for themselves.
