Great Resolutions for Powerful Leadership

https://faithfulontheclock.captivate.fm/episode/great-resolutions-for-powerful-leadership

The beginning of the year is traditionally a time for making positive changes through solid resolutions. But what should you resolve to do to move your leadership and influence to the next level? Episode 65 of Faithful on the Clock offers five powerful suggestions to try.

Key takeaways:

• This episode is designed to provide resolutions that guide you toward a deeper Christian character, rather than to build a set of superficial good habits.
• Resolution 1: Ask how your decisions or opportunities will benefit God. We are called to love and serve Him first and need to make the most of our time to do so.
• Resolution 2: Ask how your decisions or opportunities show love for your fellow human being. This connects to the second commandment and runs counter to the common message that you need to prioritize yourself.
• Resolution 3: Consider your sense of urgency. You should have a healthy sense of obligation for everything you do and let God direct that sense of obligation over time.
• Resolution 4: Delegate and help others as much as you can. This ensures that both you and others have time to get into the Word, know God, and improve your influence for Him based on that understanding.
• Resolution 5: Honor yourself. This is based on a sense of healthy humility in which you recognize and respect that you are in God’s image. Don’t let yourself get mistreated, because that makes you ineffectual in whatever He wants you to do.
