Bonjour everyone,
Here I am again writing about a weekly challenge
in my life. I have learned in the past
week that challenges are part of life and it is important not to get
overwhelmed by them but instead try to learn from them.
This week I did not particularly choose a
challenge for myself to do, such as jumping from an airplane (no, I will not do
that!) however the challenge came to me!!
One of the success principles is to learn to
build and work with a team so that you can delegate and not only get things
done yourself. This as a principle works at home, work, ministry, etc...
So, this week I have been trying to do some
delegation while preparing for a seminar and for someone who wants people to
get things done as soon as possible, it was a massive challenge!
As a single mum, I have got to do many things
and for me the challenge is to delegate to my children because I normally want
to do things my way and quicker.
But what I have realised is that God was
challenging me through my Team, at home, at work, at church in order to prune
me towards becoming a better leader and identify those areas that I needed to
improve.
I realised that whatever I wanted my team to
achieve, I needed to inform them clearly on what was expected from each of them
and whatever issues arose from that challenge, it meant that there was room for
improvement.
So, do you feel that you cannot delegate? Delegation is in itself a great challenge. Do
you think that you can do everything yourself because you want things to be
done your way? Delegation can put your perfectionism to the test.
If you want to be successful as a single mum,
start with your children and delegate to them, that is the challenge I invite
you to try this week.
