Tenacity: 3rd of the 5 ACTS of Gutsy Grace Leadership™

In this episode, I'm going to reveal the secret sauce no one told you about that is going to be absolutely necessary for you to be an effective leader for years and years to come: Tenacity! We're also going to uncover the 3 temptations that will kill your leadership tenacity (and how to resist them!)

It's often said that leadership is a marathon. I don't think it's a marathon. I've heard other people say that it's a sprint. I think it includes sprints, but I don't think it's a sprint. I believe that leadership is a marathon of sprints. The pace may change, but you still stay steady and moving forward as a leader all. of. the. time!

Take Action:
I hope you'll take a few minutes to think about any areas that maybe you've been feeling like giving up, giving in, or maybe you feel like you're giving out. Identify one thing that can get you back on track, and take bold action toward it.

DM me on Instagram and let me know you took action!

The Final Word:
"May our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God our Father, who loved us and by his grace gave us eternal encouragement and good hope, encourage your hearts and strengthen you in every good deed and word." 2 Thessalonians 2:16-17
