One Day vs. Every Day
Back in March of this year I was listening to Bill Hybels talking about leadership when three things jumped out to me that are worthy of your consideration today and into the weekend:
#1 You have to discipline yourself to train. This is how you develop skills. For instance if you are weightlifting, you start with a smaller weight and build up to greater weights.
#2 Do not try to do everything in one day. Instead, train every day on part of what you want to accomplish to eventually become the champion you want to be.
#3 Last but not least, do not add leadership duties as habits to your day, but rather frame your day around your leadership activities.
To accomplish the focus and intentionally on these three steps requires a discipline of daily and weekly Sanctuary time for self evaluation and accountability.
I am working very hard on being a better person, more effective leader, and more consistently living out my values. This journey has difficult moments every day, but based on what I have accepted as the foundation in my life I have no other choice. I am very thankful for anything and everything that I have, including YOU!
If you have chosen your foundation in life and are pursuing a personally meaningful destination, please accept my encouragement. I'm rooting for you!
Have an AWESOME weekend.
It is Friday. ACCOUNTABILITY TIME!
- How are you doing on your 3strands this week?
- Is the work remaining to complete this week's 3strands scheduled in your calendar so you can work uninterrupted?
- Have you scheduled your Sanctuary time later today or over the weekend for personal accountability and focus?
Stay on track.
