I have been taking some time to journal some leadership thoughts from an awesome book I am currently reading, "Next Generation Leader" by Andy Stanley. One of the things that keeps jumping off the pages is that we as leaders tend to associate productivity with business, when there really is no correlation between how busy I am and how productive I am. Me being busy isn't necessarily the same as being productive. The primary reason I do too much is because I don't take the time to discover the portion of what I do that makes the biggest difference. Here are some questions that I am asking myself in this season:
1.) What do I do that is most effortless from my perspective but seems like a daunting task to others?
2.) In what arenas do people see me as the "go to" person?
3.) What do I enjoy about my current position of leadership?
4.) What do I wish I could delegate?
5.) What environments do I look forward to working in?
6.) What environments do I tend to avoid?
7.) If I could focus more of my time and attention on 1 or 2 aspects of my ministry, what would they be?
