Last week I listened to this message by Mark Driscoll from the 2011 Newspring Leadership Conference. It is one of the most important messages I have ever listened to. I will be listening to this over and over again.

If you’re married or plan to be one day, if you’re in ministry, or if you find yourself chasing success and idolizing people, you need to watch this message!

This year, I’ve started a new leadership podcast and a newsletter called, “Learning to Lead”. In the podcast, I will be interviewing leaders as well as sharing what I have been learning about leadership. My hope is that through these resources, you will grow both as a person and as a leader.

If that is something you are interested in, please sign-up for the Learning to Lead Newsletter here. The Newsletter will be published 1-2 times a month with new leadership content not found on my blog, leadership quotes, leadership resources, and interviews with leaders. Subscribe Now!

In this episode, I interviewed my future father-in-law and the Director of Admission at Carnegie Mellon University. In part 1, we talked about self-leadership and leadership in the home. In part 2, to be released later, we talked about leadership in the workplace. Mike and I hope that these interviews will add value to your life and help you to develop as a leader. Listen here:

“You can climb the ladder of success, but when you get to the top you may find it is leaning against the wrong building.”

Do you find yourself wishing for things a lot? I hear a lot of people things like:

I wish I was a millionaire.

I wish I lived in a mansion.

I wish I was successful.

I wish I was a missionary in Africa.

I wish I was doing something I loved!

I wish I had a significant other.
