Leadership

Sitting here at 5 in the morning trying to read and learn about leadership at work. Reading in 2 Samuel about David and Saul. Mainly about how David was a successful leader and how Saul wasn\’t as successful. Well at least that\’s what I am getting. And the reason why David was better is because he had God.

It\’s kinda crazy because for the last week at practices and our first game I have been preaching at my guys about leadership. How to become a successful leader, to adapt, to be patient and to learn about your teammates so that you can become successful as a team with on head rather than a bunch of body parts in opposition to each other. Then I step back just now and contemplate my actions at my job towards my work partner. I dislike her very much. I have no respect for her and I see her as not valuable at all. Wow! What a rotten place to be! I realize I have been acting the same exact way I have been telling my teammates not to act towards each other. Could it be that God wants to lift my lid of leadership? Could he want me to learn humility and servitude? Not only have I had this attitude towards my co-worker but I have also had it kinda towards a 47 year old player on my college basketball team.

Wow the things that you realize when you reflex on the things you want to teach others, more times then not do I end up learning more of a lesson than I am trying to teach. Praise God for his infinite wisdom! God no matter how hard it is please help me to be mature and attempt to learn and work with the person that I am stuck with. You are amazing and I love you God. Teach me wisdom and leadership the way it should be done!
