Today I am being dispatched by INJOY Stewardship Solutions to attend Leadercast Live. In an effort to aid in my personal growth and better add value to pastors and church leaders, I will be live blogging throughout. Leadercast Live is the world’s largest one-day leadership event, with more than 100,000 attendees at 700+ locations across 20 countries. It is designed for those seeking inspiration and improvement in leadership, whether you attend as an individual or with a group.
INJOY Stewardship also wants to invest in your leadership as well by offering you our latest FREE resource Stop Summer Slump by clicking HERE for your complimentary copy.
The day’s next speaker was the brilliant Jim McKelvey. Jim is the co-founder of Square and founder of Launchcode. The following are 14 Leadership Quotes and Lessons from his amazing session on problems and opportunity:
- Nobody cares about your success but you.
- The things I’ve done which have been most successful have not been powered by purpose, but a problem.
- Finding the right problem is transformative.
- Problems are obvious.
- Obvious problems give us clarity.
- If I chase opportunity I’m always confused. That’s because opportunity is ever-present and always there.
- In an obvious problem the solution is always clear.
- The ability to know what you are supposed to do is tremendously empowering.
- Internal rewards are 100 times more powerful than external rewards.
- Gratitude is to be unexpected.
- If you’re doing anything, motivation is the key.
- 1 out of 3 people is wired to be a good programmer.
- An artist is someone who sells something nobody needs.
- I’ve started six companies and every single time I’m afraid.
That wraps up Session 1! Session 2 begins shortly with the great Donald Miller!
