I thought that too, at first. Here is the thing - It usually does this when I click on a link in an email notice (from your site here). But just now I clicked on an email link and it is not skewed and works. So it is intermittent and I've noticed that too. You just never know sometimes, heh. The next time I see it skewed, I'll take a screen shot so you can see what I mean. It may not happen again, but if it does, I'll make note. Have a great weekend. :D

Good Advice, as always. :D

OFF Topic: I'be been getting an error when wanting to tweet your articles for about um, a week. The only way to tweet them is from the lone tweet button at the bottom of each entry. The left sidebar share stuff is goobered up somehow. You should have someone look at that. It's skewed and it gives a twitter error when trying to tweet from there. I thought you'd want to know. :)

Hello :)

Am I not getting this?

Your poem is the opposite of what real leadership is, or should be. It is also about a pretense of happy. Being a blind follower is what is sounds like to me. Not sharing His Word? Nah - You're just yanking our chains.

Aha! I thought of one that most leaders would never add:

Delight or Delectation.

This goes along with Delegation, in that showing your "delight" to the work of team members with smiles and thank yous goes a very long way. Or "delight" in a job well done.

An offshoot, but a possible? Yes? I dunno, maybe - Heh.

Hard "Decision."

Hello :)

Mark Cole had it right - Delegate needs to be there, I agree.

When you delegate you show faith in the abilities of team members and this always brings out their best qualities. They will become better team members when they see their leader give them credit (praise) for the work too.

I think you covered some of this with "divert" and "direct" - a little. :D

Great article! Tweeted, as always. :)

Hello Ron and Friends.

Wow. Strong words with pronounced meaning, especially taken one at a time with consideration. I could only add a couple off hand:

Volunteer

Volunteer because I believe it is one of the strongest words to illicit good will.

Here is one not so obvious:

Rainbow

Because it is a sign from Him. One more as He set this down for us also:

Stars

As the "Gospel In The Stars" denotes - also Signs from Him.

Two more come to mind that are words to think on:

Thankful
Mindful

As in be thankful for His blessings.
And be mindful of what you do, say and project in His Name.

OH - perhaps one more:

Spirit

As denoted in His Will.

More words than I thought I'd come up with and certainly not any that mean more than any of those already presented. Words are important for many reasons but when we consider what is most important about words it is probably His Word and how He managed to communicate that to us.

Happy New Year to the great Folks here, and around the world. :)

This is a terribly sweet entry. As many of us were raised with cats and/or dogs, we love both at our house. Over the years, we've also had a rather large fish tank, birds (not exotic; finches and such) and the normal amount of hamsters, gerbils, lizards that children love to care for. Don't forget the ever popular little turtles.

Your story about the animals wanting to be close to Jesus is a "priceless gem" story. I'll pass that along.

As to a favorite animal? It's hard to say. For fascinating, I'd say apes and monkeys. But for LOVE? Good ol' cats and dogs. They like to snuggle. :)

The truth is we are all human, boy or girl, man or woman. Although judging is not our job, it is how we form our OH!pinions of others. We all judge, although we say we don't. The simple act of forming an opinion is a work of personal judgement.

Now, judging what you said, yeah, you're a girl. Heh. J'est yanking your chain.

I agree and no longer follow sports except for what may be big news and is unavoidable.

It's hard enough to know that I judge (even though I don't think I DO) others by what is normal for most of us.

The disappointment and holes that are left by athletes can be truly devastating to those who love, admire and respect them. I cannot see setting myself up for that kind of situation. I did when I was younger, follow sports and was disappointed and hurt many times.

I'm not a girl anymore, I am a grown woman and I simply know better now. Idolizing men for what is called "talent" in a sport is (in my humble OH!pinion) not an activity to admire.

Very Nice article indeed. Leaders stand out as those folks others want or need to follow. Their lives are held up as examples. When those examples are human, more than egotistic (and either defensive/offensive), every team member benefits.

That is just too, um, spammy for my taste. I'm not here to advertise. However, I would like to share a few of our Holiday Pages this year - this will give you a lead into our businesses too:

Sometimes URL's get stripped out so if you need to have these links, you can reach me at buddyservices care of gmail.com.

I also added you today to the Buddy Bulletin as a contributor so perhaps in the near future your tweets will begin to show in my web paper. (The Buddy Bulletin is here: http://paper.li/SuperEB/1322068502

Have a Great Holiday.
