I resolve to strive for the following as I work
To always remember that humility before God and man is the beginning of all other virtues
To serve others and ultimately serve God in humble submission
To align my work ambitions with those of my team and my company (Philippians 2:3)
To help create a work environment where best ideas win
To not carry the burden of my job alone but be continually yoked with my Lord Jesus (Matthew 11: 28-30)
To not control but influence people
To start with why
To value people over processes
To be clear in my communications
To be gracious and allow room for mistakes
To continually align expectations with others
To be authentic and genuine, to bring 100% of me to 100% of where I go and what I do
To listen well and to strive to understand
To not be afraid to look foolish or make mistakes
To always keep the company, team and project goals in front of me
To list and prioritize tasks at the start of every day
To speak in my own rhythm and style, and not cave to peer pressure
To remain sober minded
To ask the right questions
To identify opportunities for automation in order to increase efficiency
To be 100% present in every meeting
To always guard my heart with regard to judgments toward others
To always exercise and deploy the common virtues
To do the right thing no matter what
To not worry about tomorrow. Today’s trouble is enough for today. (Matthew 6:34)
To be continued…
