Leadership involves surrounding yourself with good positive people . With out this, you cannot have success.
MOLESKIN:
As I wrapped up my first season as a HEAD COACH , I realized quickly I can’t do it alone. Expecting to lead alone is nearly impossible. A true leader will surround himself or herself with positive people ready to help. It’s just what I had in my first season of being a head coach for 2 of my sons flag football teams. I had a lot of expectations of myself to “run the show” but quickly realized , I am screwed doing it all alone. I had dads stepping up ready to help as assistant coaches. It was much needed and with all the help, our teams had a successful season ! The success was not winning the games but just having fun with the kids! To sum it up, we are born to lead but we can’t do it alone !

Einstein “ stay away from negative people, the find a problem to every solution” . As you lead, make sure you surround yourself with positive people !

Aye!

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Spoke about the Tennessee/Alabama game and how Tennessee and it’s team resembles our lives a lot more than Alabama.  That sometimes our hard work doesn’t turn out the way we desired.  That obstacles and hardship don’t mean we’re being punished.  God just asks us to show up and be faithful.  To trust him no matter what is going on at any given time.  That he has a plan and sometimes it doesn’t look the way we wanted or thought might be best for us, but God sees the whole picture.

BOM
“Never mind likes and dislikes; they are of no consequence.
Just do what must be done. This may not be happiness, but it is greatness.”

– George Bernard Shaw

I’m convinced that our culture’s relentless pursuit of comfort and convenience has robbed us of any sense of significance and meaning.  A life lived for self eventually implodes, leaving men empty and filled with regret.  We are not created for comfort, we are created for purpose and impact.  The pursuit of comfort and convenience breeds complacency.  The pursuit of purpose and impact fuels greatness.  We were made for greatness.

The thing is, we’ve confused greatness with success.  Martin Luther King Jr revealed the secret to greatness, “Everyone has the power for greatness, not for fame but greatness, because greatness is determined by service.”  It’s not what we get, it’s what we give.

Every day we wake to multiple opportunities to serve, opportunities for greatness.  Keep your eyes and hearts open brothers.  When you see the opportunity…seize it!  If it’s hard, embrace it!  The world is waiting for men of integrity and courage to assume their roles and lead.  You don’t need permission, you have already been commissioned.

The WORD came from James 4:1-10. It is difficult sometimes to be humble and keep our focus on God rather than worldly gain. “Humble yourselves in the presence of the Lord, and He will exalt you.”
