Leading Yourself Well: Leading Others in the Home, Work, and Community
Once you are leading yourself well, you naturally influence others. Life Leaders model the same principles of leadership in every sphere of life—whether in the home, at work, or in the community.
1. In the Home:
– A Life Leader nurtures and builds her family by leading with love, patience, and wisdom. She sets a tone of grace and discipline, and she encourages those in her household to grow in their faith, talents, and relationships.
Scripture:
– Proverbs 31:28-29: “Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her: ‘Many women do noble things, but you surpass them all.'”
2. At Work
– In the workplace, a Life Leader leads with excellence, honesty, and compassion. She serves her colleagues with integrity, demonstrates a strong work ethic, and provides leadership by example, while also uplifting and empowering those around her.
Scripture:
– Colossians 3:23-24: “Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.”
3. In the Community:
– A Life Leader actively serves her community with a heart of compassion and justice. She seeks out opportunities to contribute to others’ well-being, whether through acts of service, advocacy, or offering a listening ear.
Scripture:
– Matthew 5:14-16: “You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead, they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.”
A Life Leader is someone who doesn’t just talk about faith, they live it out daily in every aspect of life. By leading yourself well, you create a life that reflects God’s love, truth, and wisdom, and you become a powerful example for others to follow. You are more than just a leader in words and in actions—you are making a lasting impact on your home, workplace, and community.
