If you want to be a good leader, you have to be a good TEACHER. Good teachers TEACH as they LEARN, they never 'help too much', which means they show the directions, not the answers. If you 'help too much' you're doing a disservice to affiliates.
First, you have to understand,to be able to show the right direction ( learn yourself, than explain, the same goes to the affiliates).
Yes, there is 'too much helping', you can show your support but don't overdo!
