Welcome to a challenge in today’s Business Blog.
Here’s something to stir you and get you to thinking:
Without faith, there can be no leadership. No love. No passion.
I found this challenging thought in Seth Godin’s book, "Tribes".
It’s no surprise to think that leaders must have faith.
Faith in themselves, their mission and their great purpose.
A challenging thought: Leaders must have faith to overcome fear.
Faith that they can successfully challenge the status quo.
Faith that they can bring needed change.
Jesus didn’t try to create a new religion but reform an old one.
Martin Luther only sought to reform a church in trouble.
Godin draws a line between faith and religion.
Faith produces hope. Faith overcomes fear. Faith brings courage.
Faith is critical to change, innovation and creativity.
Religion codifies conduct. It imposes rules. It sets limits.
Religion at its best reminds us of where we are going.
Religion at its worst puts a fence around our minds and hearts.
It leads to corruption, religious wars and other atrocities.
You must believe that whatever happens you will succeed.
What has that got to do with overcoming business challenges?
Everything. Think about that. Your faith is the only hope you have.
Without faith that you will succeed, you have no hope of success.
Faith builds hope, trust, a can-do attitude. It’s all about faith.
