DGT Episode 214 - The Desire At The Heart Of Dreams - AUDEO Part 12

The easiest way to get lost in doing anything is to not know what you are trying to do to begin with. Anytime we’re called to lead a project of any kind, our leadership begins with vision. But what if we can’t find a vision? Is there something deeper at the root of being able to cast a vision going forward? There is – we call it the power to dream. Dream is the power within a leader to reach forward to something which you do not yet possess and its roots lay in healing our ability to desire things.

All great leaders dare to dream but what do you do when the dreams have gone dry? Where does our power to come up with great ideas or great initiatives come from?

Which is why the redeeming power of Christ to heal us and our sense of ourselves is the key to unlocking our desire to dare great things for Christ. Journey with us as we explore self-acceptance and its power to change our lives.

There are a plethora of books and articles written about leadership today. But most of them focus on leadership as if it were an individual enterprise – almost like something the leader does in a vacuum. In fact, however, leadership requires leading others which means our relationship with others and ability to get them to join our cause is at the heart of what we’re doing. Does our faith in Christ give us an advantage here? How does a Christian leader form a team and motivate them to give the very best of themselves.

The key that determines the success of every great endeavor is whether or not we actually do it. Planning, scheming, dreaming, all of these things are fine but in the final analysis only doing a deed will get the deed done. But getting things done is hard. Things can arise that we did not plan energy can wane situations can change. It’s a good thing that God is on our side and leading out of a place of faith helps you to bend and not break.

They say that the road to hell is paved with good intentions. The same could be said about the road to failure. The difference between success and failure is often the ability to try. But this is exactly what is difficult for many of us. We can have the greatest intentions and the most noble aspirations but passing into action seems to be on of the hardest things to do. Does faith offer us any remedy? Does grace give us any advantage in taking the plunge of leadership?

All of us want to be influential in our lives. We want to be successful parents, great business leaders, powerful leaders in our community and we know that all of our influence flows from our actions and all of our actions flow from our intentions and desires. But intentions are not good enough. Great leaders know how to build on good intentions and make effective plans to really hit the mark. Our Catholic faith shows us this in many ways and our faith can provide a priceless tool as we fight for vision.

His grace in us repairs the fundamental structure of leadership by allowing us to recapture our ability to cast a vision.

Leadership has many definitions but all of them have one thing in common: people have to follow. Regardless of how good your idea is or how passionate you are about it, if you can’t bring other people along with you, you will not be able to lead successfully. But effectively sharing your vision and your passion is more than just a natural talent. It’s a skill that can be studied and harnessed. And what is more, it is an especial gift that Christ gives to the world through his Christian leaders.

Everybody who is successful knows that great ideas are only the beginning. You need a strategic plan, you need helpers along the journey, and you need the staying power of pure determination. Does our faith have anything to do with this? Does being a Christian give an advantage to leaders? Or is there any overlap between the faith and the demands of our practical life? We believe that there is and one of the best places to see it is in the beauty of grit.

Getting things done. How do I pass from ability to action? I may know what is right, I may know what I need to do, but actually doing it is a whole other thing.

Many people prefer to simply hide. How can my faith in God help me to pass from potential into action and make the difference I really want to make?
