"For a Tree to Grow Tall it must have Tough Roots in its Rocks"

A important quality for a good leader to have is to be tough both physically and emotionally. Physically, you need someone to be strong to be able to continue to lead even through tough times. Critics surround our world and to be able to take in all of the insults and/or compliments is not something a everyday person can do. If someone were to take every single insult to heart to much it could easily effect their next choices possibly motivating them wrongly. If a person were to take every compliment and indulge themselves in just that, they could become very self centered and/or over confident in their actions. Andrew Jackson has had many experiences in his past to judge and test his will power. He has two bullets lodged in his chest from encounters and they are too close to  his heart to remove. Definitely a good example of strong will power. A example of power emotionally would be as he completed life he did it without parents to guide him. He never met his father and mother died when he was young. Through all of his hardship past, Andrew Jackson has manged to gain some very important qualities to be a good leader, including a tough personality physically and emotionally.
