“The kamikaze pilot that was able to fly 50 missions was involved—but never committed.”

All I’m suggesting is that you give others the same consideration you give yourself. It’s not a lot to ask, and the dividends it will pay you relationally can be huge.

Clearly state the goals. When goals have no clear focus, neither will the actions of the people trying to achieve them.

As mentors, you and I are first responsible for finding good models for ourselves. Give careful thought to which leaders you will follow because they will determine your course. I have developed six questions to ask myself before picking a model to follow:

The people closest to me determine my level of success or failure. The better they are, the better I am.

People will follow you only when they believe in you.
