Timing- trust- experience- discern- learn- make mistakes- what is the outcome....

Risk is something is very important- those who has taken risk become successful

Strategic Leadership
7 points

1. Importance of planning
2. Begin with end in mind
3. Swot
4. Goals  and objectives
5. Key outcomes
6. Implement and communicate
7. Revise and restructure as needed- brutal honest....

Mind of Strategist- Kencichi Ohmae- Analysis is critical starting point....

Sun Tzu- The art of war- the opportunity of defeating the enemy is provided by the enemy himself...

Understanding what is going on?
Do not just ignore - but look into this....

Strategic engagements
1. The direct- Frontal assault
2. The indirect- Change the ground rules
3. The divisional
4. The containment

5 levels of leadership

A)Position - Person appointed.- starting point-
Jesus positioned his disciples

Imposed.. not very effective.

B) Permission- relationship- listens- observers- learns- developer trust...
Serving- positive env- you can like people w/o leading them but you can not lead people w/o liking them.





C) Production-getting things done.. a model for others to follow...attract to be with them. Influence- energy-

Who you are is who you will ultimately attract....Great exaggerator-

Results- level 3
People follow you....


D) Develop the people- not just power but empowering others....
Use position, relationship and productivity to invest in their followers...
Teamwork moves to a higher level
Reproduces themselves. Performance increases and everyone wins.....
Reproduction- Level 4

Can we grow further from the current levels

Different leadership levels-
I will need to rebuild from L1 again.
Easily damage my leadership if am careless but I can rebuild.

Real battle, Different rules

Real battle, different rules Refer 2 Cor 10:3-6- NIV- For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. 4 The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds . 5 We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ. 6 And we will be ready to punish every act of disobedience, once your obedience is complete. Paul's tone changes sharply in 2 Corinthians 10. After pleading gently for generosity toward the poor, he turns to face his critics, and he is no longer soft-spoken. They claimed he was bold on paper but timid in person, a man who threatened discipline from a distance and would never dare follow through face to face. In short, they questioned whether he had the apostolic authority he claimed. Paul's answer was to describe his ministry as spiritual warfare. The world is unprinciple...

God rewriting life stories

God rewriting life stories Reference Ps 18:20-24 Psalm 18:20–24 (The Message) captures David’s reflection on how God restored and renewed his life when he fully surrendered to Him. In Eugene Peterson’s paraphrase, the language feels vivid and personal—more like a heartfelt testimony than a formal psalm—showing how God restores, remakes, and redefines those who turn to Him. Amen. "God rewrote the text of my life when I opened the book of my heart to His eyes" is perhaps the most powerful image here. It shows that when David welcomed God into his innermost being, God transformed his story—redeeming it, reshaping it, and giving it new meaning and purpose. Hallelujah!  David says God “made my life complete” when he laid everything before Him, and that God “rewrote the text” of his life. This language highlights honest surrender, repentance, and the experience of being restored by God. 2 Corinthians 5:17 makes the same basic claim in a more compact form: “if anyone is in Chris...

I will Bless the Lord

I will bless the Lord, at all times...  Reference: Ps 34:1 - I will bless the LORD at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth. One of the most important attitudes we can embrace in life is making it a habit to bless Him continually. I use the word “lifestyle” on purpose—it’s not just for when we feel like it, but also for when we don’t, because it’s essential. It’s not only about what we do, but who we are.  David’s steady commitment was clear in his words. He received countless blessings from the Lord even before he became well-known. Before everyone knew his name, the Lord knew him for his constant praise and gratitude. Out in the fields, tending sheep in the green pastures, he would sing, dance, and bless the Lord. That was David's preparation to the bigger assignments.  Verse 4 from this chapter really spoke to me: I sought the Lord, trusting in His word, and He answered me, delivering me from all my fears. So, I bless the Lord—Amen, Hallelujah. He...
