Don’t let future possibilities distract you from present responsibilities.

Even if I agree with them in principle, I’m reluctant to join forces with people whose leading motivation is anger.

My advice to content creators: Think living room, not conference room. In your mind, leave the controlled environment and go to where the reader lives.

If you had to choose, which would it be: well-known or well-respected?

When wondering whether to speak or to hold back—
1. Is it true?
2. Is it helpful?
3. Is now the right time?

If yes, yes, and yes, then say it kindly and clearly.

@jcmajors Herding Tigers

[Tim Grissom @TimLGrissom]

Favorite books of 2018.

This is an oversimplification, but it seems to me that effective leadership often comes down to these:
1) give clear direction
2) get out of the way
3) stay available

It is the Scriptures that are inspired, not the paper and ink. If you prefer print over digital, fine. But please stop trying to make it an issue of spiritual maturity. It isn’t.

[Tim Grissom @TimLGrissom]

If you lead a creative team, please read “Herding Tigers” by @toddhenry. The most helpful book I’ve read in 2018.
