Tired?

Do you ever have times when you are tired? Of course, we all do.

What will help us deal with these times?

Learn the signs. What are the signs of being tired? Frustration? Anger? Short in our response? Sleepy?

Step back and think. When the signs occur, step back and think before speaking or acting.

Wait to make decisions. Our ability to make good decisions is hindered. Pause and think first.

DO NOT QUIT! It is tempting, but regardless of where our leadership responsibility lies, we must not give up.

We will have times when we are tired. Remember and practice these four thoughts.

Leading for the Distance…

Paul often compares Christianity to distance running.

For distance runners, there is often the challenge of starting too fast too early. The result? Muscles become fatigued and one cannot go the distance.

Another challenge is the proper balance of fluids and fuel. Without the proper fuel, we do not have enough energy to sustain long distance running.

Running may not be for everyone. However, it provides a number of lessons that parallel with leadership.

Trying to accomplish too much too quickly leaves one tired and burned out. Remember, leadership is not about a sprint, but going the distance.

A balance of spiritual nutrition is vital to that kind of leadership.
