STOP AND THINK – Leadership is not a skill. It’s character. (Mark Divine, business entrepreneur and a former Navy Seal)
Divine goes on to say, “Successful, happy, and fulfilled people embody core values such as honor, courage, and commitment to personal excellence.” And he emphasizes that “Real leaders command from the heart.” We seem to think that leadership can be learned by applying rules from a book, but it’s deeper than that. It must come from one’s integrity.
Whoever walks in integrity walks securely (Proverbs 10:9). The integrity of the upright guides them (Proverbs 11:3).
