1. Take a Look Inside. Strong leaders know who they are, what motivates them, and why they do what they do and react the way they react. They are always ready to change in order to become all that God intends. 2. Evaluate Your Motives. Are you working for yourself? For God? For others? If not for good motives, change then them. 3. Come To Grips With Your Past. Get help if you need to. Effective leaders get past the past – the things that tie them down. They realize that forgiveness leads to freedom. 4. Be Who You Are. Effective leaders lead as the people God made them to be, and they don't try to be someone else. 5. Evaluate Your Priorities. Consider the order of importance you place on your relationship with God, your family, your work, your friends, and everything else. Be willing to reevaluate your priorities over time. 6. Take A Look In The Mirror. Recognize that God has given you incredible gifts, abilities, and strengths that are unique to you. 7. Complement Your Strengths With The Strengths Of Others. Remember, not only were you created for community, but others were too. You were not created to do everything yourself.
