We’re all going to die. Plain and simple.
That fact alone is why many of us are in the “business” of preparing others for death by leveraging their destinies in life.You can call that business: MINISTRY and I’ve been in “professional” ministry for over 10 years.
Bottom line. I’ve seen more ministry leaders waste more time then I care to admit.
I know what you’re picturing: youth pastors wasting time in their offices playing video games, endless meetings preparing for new budgets and buildings.
Sure. Sure.
But more than that, I’m talking about POOR LEADERSHIP: mismanaged priorities, lack of self-awareness, fear of empowerment, and unclear expectations.
Are you a leader? If so, life is too short to waste your influence. Quit making excuses and take charge of the 2 square feet around you. If you’re not leading your self well, my firm conviction is you can’t lead others well. Your followers know this. It’s why some of them probably already left you. They saw the gaps and lost respect.
Please. Don’t let this discourage you. Let it embolden you and motivate you to action.
On our deathbeds people want one thing. Not more money, or more titles, or more real estate.
They want more TIME.
BAD LEADERS KILL TIME. They do this by bad leadership choices. And as the quote goes, “To kill time is to wound eternity.”
The solution? Stop killing time. Rather, invest it by reading, Killing Cockroaches.
Author Tony Morgan has a confrontational new book that will be sure to identify your gaps in leadership and put you on a path to close those gaps. For those leaders courageous enough to deal with their junk I encourage you to check out the short video below and more importantly, check out the book on Amazon. Morgan’s book will demonstrate how “killing cockroaches” is hijacking your legacy as a leader.
