If you're in the wrong place, people may never see/understand your value. It doesn't matter how buttoned up, meticulous or thorough you are.....Keep doing what you know is right. God will do the rest. My Sunday encouragement.

You have an open role - and your default move is to look internally...
Someone trusted.
Someone who's been around.
Someone who wants to grow.
But that's already the wrong sequence.
You're starting with the person, when you should be starting with the role.
Before you look at who you have, define exactly what the role requires.
The specific outputs.
The day-to-day decisions.
The skillset it actually demands.
Every role (even the similar ones) has a different set of demands.
Just like how a video editor and a strategist are wired differently. Or how a project manager and an ops manager are not the same job with a different title.
And tenure doesn't change that. Neither does loyalty.
So when you're hiring for a role, find someone whose existing skills actually fit what the role demands. And if that person isn't already on your team, then go find them.
@CoachRock73 That’s a great comparison. Totally spot on…I was ripping BK to my oldest daughter tonight. Convinced it’s the place that ruined cheese on burgers for me (unless it’s Swiss)
@CoachA523 Just me, receipt 1238, brought out to me at 1259. Couldn’t believe it. I’ve ordered from a location closer to house with the app, set it for 1215-1230, and was still waiting at 1245
Throw up a hand if you remember when Donna Summer was dominating the radio. Nobody really ever talks about her now but she sounds as much like 1979 as anyone.
Last AM @IHMSchool carpool after 12 years yesterday. Figured I’d let Mary Mason enjoy the song she thought was singing her name until she was 10 (was really Perry Mason). Jewel and The Rubies - Kidnapper - 1963 https://t.co/2YlGnzQUxv via @YouTube
As an AD, I have been in many locker rooms. A locker room can be a special place if you allow it to be. It’s where teams come in as individuals and leave as one unit with a common goal. It’s where relationships are formed between people from different backgrounds, where teams celebrate together and struggle together.
A locker room can be a powerful place when used correctly. But when used incorrectly, it can become poisonous. It can become a place where individuals refuse to let go of selfishness, where negativity spreads, and where outside noise creeps in. When outsiders are allowed in to constantly tell athletes how good they are or make excuses for why things are not going their way, poison begins to spread throughout the team.
The best teams understand the intimacy of a locker room. They protect it. They use it for the right purposes. The best locker rooms weed out negativity, distractions, and outside noise because they understand that if everyone is not pulling in the same direction for the same purpose, poison will eventually set in and destroy it.
