From my experience, sometimes leaders have to do the jobs that no one else wants to do. Sometimes someone has to step up. To be the hero. If no one does something, sometimes nothing will get done. Yes, this leaves us feeling under appreciated and exhausted. But I was taught that we don't need gratification to do good things. We need to do them because its the right thing to do and because it needs to get done. We should never do anything just because we will get praise for doing it.
