Actually, I’m completely exhausted. Today we had a very successful class. We had 28 dentists sitting in one room to learn more about dental implants. I busted my arse yesterday to get the room in order. When I left, I was completely satisfied. I am very proud of what we accomplished.
A few years ago, a man named John Morgan spoke at my church. He was a lead pastor at a church, but he decided to step down because he realized that he is a much better #2 than he is a #1. That message has stuck with me throughout the good times and the bad times. It takes a person who really knows him or herself to step down from a position like that to be a youth pastor.
I know something about myself. In general, I am not a good #2. I would like to be. I try to be. But I don’t do all that well in support roles. I am only really good in the #2 role behind someone who is a very strong #1. I don’t know if it is a strength or weakness knowing this.
Anyway. I’ve found someone that I am good at supporting. I actually enjoy supporting him. I can see working with him, doing life for a long time. We seem to balance one another pretty well. He lets me rant and rave if necessary…but he also knows when to cut me off. And I let him. Without being ticked off. Yeah. I am in uncharted territory. Now we just need to get that business making money…
Thanks for reading. Until next time…
