Good to Great

The book I am reading currently is helping me understand some very helpful insights into leading a life guided wisely.  Level 5 leadership is a key role in my life.  The level five leader is a blend of personal humility and professional will.  Help me understand how to stay humble and help me understand grace.  Help me to find the things that I am passionate about and push through to see the dreams come true.  Help me understand vision and how to take care of the now also.  I want to be a dreamer but also someone so focused on the present that I am always aware of how I can meet others needs.  God help me find people to surround myself with who are like-minded and yet creative and filled with different perspectives.  Help me find the right people and get them in the right places, or help me to submit to the right place.  Help me confront the brutal facts.  The Stockdale Principal which talks about how a man who was a POW for 8 years dealt with trying to work through the crap realizing and truly believing he would get out.  To face the fact that he was in prison, but to also see the future that there would be a life beyond his present circumstances.  Help me follow the hedgehog principal also.  Which says there are three circles and they all need to line up for purpose to be understood.  The circles are passion, economic possibility and what can I be the best at.  Help me take these principals into my own walk and help me focus on actions and course of life through these three things.  Help me to have a to-do list as well as an un-do list.  Help me develop a culture of discipline where people are excited to do the work they have and that they have enough drive to make it happen because they are in the right position.  As things move forward in my life Lord, I pray that I will stay faithful to these concepts and that I will live a life filled with your spirit and the care to make sure I am following every step of the way.
