Progress Toward Success

I have stated many times that being a leader isn't a sit back and relax role. It is one you must continue to work at and grow if you want to be successful. If you want to leave a leadership legacy then you must also continue to progress spiritually. Your faith is important to your success and the success of those around you.

Today it is your spiritual progress that we will look at. How are you progressing spiritually? There are a number of things you can do that will help you grow spiritually.

  • Read God's Word - You should do this everyday
  • Spend time at church learning - You should at least go once a week
  • Serve - Serve in your church or at other charities. Volunteer your time and you will reap great reward.

How does this help you leave a leadership legacy? When you progress spiritually you are more fulfilled and when you are fulfilled you do a better job. Make sure you are progressing in your spiritual life.

Then if you want competent employees follow this verse with what you train and teach your employees.

Proverbs 22:6 "Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it."

If you show people the right way to do their job they will learn and do a great job. If you also give them direction in their careers they will also show progress and will be better employees.

Leave that leadership legacy by growing spiritually and training your people so they also grow. You will have a stronger organization.
