THE POWER OF PASSING IT ON

THE POWER OF PASSING IT ON

By Dr. Myles Munroe.

1.  The Greatest Act Of Leadership Is Mentoring.

2.  If what you learn, achieve, accumulate or accomplish dies with you then you are a generational failure.

3.  Mentoring is the manifestation of the highest level of personal maturity, security and self confidence.

4.  An insecure person will never Train People, they will oppress people.

5.  Mature people create people greater than themselves.

6.  Your assignment has a shelf life.

7.  You will die one day; so train your replacement.

8.  Your Greatest Gift to the world is your mentee.

9.  True leaders do not seek followers, followers are attracted to true leaders.

10.  The Greatest obligation of true leadership is to transfer your deposit to the next generation.

11.  Leadership success is measured by the success of your successor.

12.  No matter how great you may have been, if you didn't produce a successor, you are a failure.

13.  You preserve what you built through mentorship.

14.  Legacy is about preserving all that you've built by raising other people.

15. Success without a successor is failure.

16.  Leadership that serves only it's generation is destined to failure.

17. If your vision dies with you, you have failed.

18. Legacy is about living beyond your grave.

19. Leadership Is not a Sprint but a relay.

20. The most important part of a relay is passing it on-not running.

21. The ultimate measure of true leadership is not to maintain followers but to produce leaders.

22. True leadership measures it's success by the diminishing dependency factor of its followers.

23. The ultimate measure of leadership is the ability to leave.

24. True leadership makes itself increasingly unnecessary.

25. You are a successful leader when your followers can lead others.

26. Your goal as a leader is to destroy the dependency of the people around you.

27.  You are a great leader when your people don't need you.

28.  Make people greater than you and you will live forever.

29.  True leaders do not seek power.

30.  True leaders seek to empower.

31.  True leaders make themselves increasingly unnecessary.

32.  Never confuse your position with your value.

33. The ultimate goal of true leadership is not to maintain followers but to produce leaders.

34.  The first act of a true leader is identifying your replacement and you begin mentoring them.

35.  You become great by producing people greater than yourself.

36.  When you produce someone greater than yourself, don't get jealous. Take the credit.

37.  When you train your replacement, you are freed to expand your work.

38.  When you mentor people, your legacy will make your tombstone unnecessary.✍ *

TAKE A REST BEFORE YOU ARE LAID TO REST

Thought I should share this 👇 TAKE A REST BEFORE YOU ARE LAID TO REST Dear All, There is no doubt, things are tough in Nigeria today. To enjoy a healthy living and survival, it takes dedicated efforts and the Grace of God. Be satisfied with what you have. Spend wisely and buy only what you really need to make you live healthily.

HOW TO HANDLE BETRAYA

This story resonates with me. I have been there several times. In the near future, I will be sharing on HOW TO HANDLE BETRAYAL. Till then, enjoy this story. "A woman from India who lived in the Middle Ages had a pet snake, python, which she loved so much. The snake was 4 meters long and looked healthy.  However, one day her unusual pet just stopped eating. This lack of appetite in the snake continued over a few weeks. The desperate woman tried everything she could and offered anything that a snake would like to strangle and eat. Nothing worked, and finally the woman took her loving pet to the veterinarian as a last resort. The vet listened to the woman carefully and asked, “Does your snake sleep with you at night, wrap around you closely and spread full length?? The woman was surprised and with a lot of hope she said,  “Yes! Yes! It does it every day and it makes me so sad because I see something asking of me, and I cannot help it feel better.” Then, the vet...

YOU CANNOT GET BY PRAYER WHAT YOU SHOULD GET BY CHARACTER & OBEDIENCE

I don't know who authored this, but it's powerful, knowledge, wisdom & educative! Take time to read it.... A man’s character is his fate. Heraclitus Thomas Jefferson, the third President of the United States (US), said: “Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal; nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude .” As a clergyman, I have watched pitiably how people self-sabotage themselves by seeking spiritual solutions to character-deficit issues. They look around at everybody as suspects for their predicaments when their greatest demons lurks within them - their character. What we often call our destiny is truly our character, and since that character can change, then destiny can be altered. Character is destiny . Is prayer actually EVERYTHING? Many would begin to argue back and forth on this intriguing question, but my main purpose of writing this piece is not to get involved in arguments. _Arguments don’t impr...
