You are in the position of being the one who knows more about what's going on than others do. Being the standard bearer carries a lot of responsibility. Walking the thin line that separates knowing what's going on from being clear that you don't have a clue involves connecting with a deep form of humility. It's true that you see more than everyone around you and on a certain level you were put here to guide them. But if you can't admit that you don't have all the answers, it'll weaken things considerably.
