I really enjoy listening to Andy Stanley – especially his monthly leadership podcast (available here). Andy has some super lessons for leaders and aspiring leaders, whether in the church or business world. See if you don’t find application in your life too.
Here are some notes I jotted down as I was listening:
If you experience burnout, it is not necessarily because you are too busy. It’s likely because you’re doing something you shouldn’t be doing – something that is not your gifting or calling.
Sure, we can be too busy, and that is something to be avoided. We have to make sure our priorities are in line and that our life has margin, i.e. – time to relax, reflect, think and listen. But, this observation really resonated with me. Are we doing lots of things, or are we doing the right things? That can make all the difference.
