“Let
nothing be done
through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other
better than themselves.”
Phil 2:3
Being
a leader has nothing to do with responding to stuff all day, it’s about the
ability to move things forward. This is accomplished by influencing outcomes
and inspiring others to achieve it. Does not require a title, position of
authority or a corner office. The first required step in influencing and
inspiring others starts with self-reflection, do others around you see you as
credible, in the sense do they see you as one who is sincere in serving others
needs to help them succeed? It’s not about getting others to help you succeed,
but your willingness and devotion to influence and inspire their success. This
was Jesus M.O. (modus operandi), he
came to serve not to be served. He came so others could succeed spiritually,
and he did this by influencing others through his credibility and sincerity. You
want to influence and inspire others for Christ, don’t allow them to focus
strictly on what Christ can do for them. Instead inspire them to see and yearn
for the eternal perspective and the vastness of glory. When they are able to
see beyond themselves and see the eternality of Christ, they will then be lead
to influence and inspire others as well towards Christ greatness.
Great
leaders don’t create great followers, they create greater leaders!
HSAY…
