Morning Leaders – Great Leaders
Morning Leaders. “Great leaders are almost always great simplifiers, who can cut through argument, debate, and doubt to offer a solution everybody can understand.” – General Colin Powell
Morning Leaders – Immature
Morning Leaders. One of the most dangerous leaders is an Immature Leader who does not know he/she is Immature. #Scary #Sad #AllTooCommon
Morning Leaders – Sleepy Heads
Morning Leaders. Even though the people may be sleepy it is still your responsibility to shepherd them.

Morning Leaders – Need Something?
Morning Leaders. I find it interesting for those leaders who only reach out and communicate with you when they need something from you. Other than that they don’t connect with you. #NoEngagement #GoDeeper
Morning Leaders – Listen Well
Morning Leaders. Not all leaders listen well, especially some of the leaders who are higher on the rung. Over the past twenty-five years I’ve read, listened, and personally observed countless senior leaders who really just want to hear what “they believe” to be the truth. Ego & Pride often stop these leaders from acknowledging the very things which would be of most benefit to them. May God help us all to listen well. #Grace
Morning Leaders – Don’t Be Average
Morning Leaders. “‘Average’ people have always resented progress.” – David Schwartz

Morning Leaders – Actually Do The Work
Morning Leaders. Ideas are not able to be copy written so don’t say someone STOLE your idea. It would be better to say, “I was too lazy to do the work and someone actually did the thing that I was talking about for years. They DID the work while I just THOUGHT about it.” Now if you COPIED someone else’s work and presented it as something original, well you are just a Bootlegger. #DoTheWork
Morning Leaders – Line Up Your Calling
Morning Leaders. Just because you are good at something does not necessarily mean that is your Calling/Purpose. You may just have a Talent. Be careful others do not thrust you into a position that does not line up with your Calling. Otherwise you can grow frustrated exercising a talent that does not bring deep fulfillment.
