This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom
A Leader's Courage – Daily Wisdom
Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps. We are on Day 1719 of our Trek, and it’s time to explore another nugget of wisdom, which includes an inspirational quote along with some wise words from Gramps for today’s trek. Wisdom is the final frontier in gaining true knowledge. We are on a daily trek to create a legacy of wisdom, seek out discernment and insights, and boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before.
Hello, my friend; this is Gramps. Thanks for coming along on today’s trek as we increase Wisdom and Create a Living Legacy. Proverbs 16:16 How much better to get wisdom than gold, and sound judgment than silver! If you apply the words you hear today, over time, it will help you become more healthy, wealthy, and wise as you continue your daily trek of life. So let’s jump right in with today’s nugget:
Today’s quote is from John Maxwell, and it is: A great leader’s courage to fulfill his vision comes from passion, not position.
A Leader’s Courage
While most leadership roles originate from a position within an organization, effective leadership is within the person leading. It takes courage to lead and especially to lead well. Unfortunately, many persons put into leadership positions lack the courage and passion that results in good leaders. When the path ahead becomes challenging, if a leader does not have a clear vision that they can set their eyes on, their ability to reach their destination will be thwarted. To fulfill the vision, it does take courage and passion that is deep within a person. That has nothing to do with the position a person holds. Courage does not come from not being afraid, but it comes from the ability to move forward, even when you are scared. So be encouraged by the fact that you can become a great leader when you are willing to take responsibility with passion and strive towards your vision.
Be on guard. Stand firm in the faith. Be courageous. Be strong.
