These notes from Lindsay Brown's address were passed on to me this week (H/T Sam):
- You must be able to: coach, catalyst, encourage.
- Look after your family: the danger of neglect.
- Be generous in your treatment of others. Watch out for jealousy.
- Don't worry about the numbers.
- Speak well of others. Don't give in to bitterness - grace is the foundation of all service.
- Keep up your reading. Beware of dryness.
- Think legacy. Beware short-termisim. Have a long view.
- Be clear in your vision. Watch out for confusion.
- Build inter-connected teams. Beware individualism.
- ??? Surprise!
- Develop a prayer life. Beware of praylessness.
- Keep pressing on - remember it's a privilege. Don't give in to discouragement.
