Believe That You Have Help – Glenn Brooke

It’s important for leaders to believe that they have help. We’re constantly at war with something or someone, battling, even if with our own limitations. My Christian worldview gives me confidence that God is always fighting for me, that I am never alone, that I am part of God’s story, and there is a greater purpose to my life. I have friends with other worldviews who are strong leaders because they have confidence that there is a reason and a calling for their efforts to put a “dent in the universe.”

Leaders who don’t believe they have help, that life matters, who feel utterly alone and forsaken… well, they aren’t going to be leaders very long.

[Video] Rise – Restore Leadership Academy

Rise – Restore Leadership Academy from Restore International on Vimeo.

This video is from Restore International, the organization that we have the opportunity to help through giving during the month of February. I wanted to give you another glimpse into what they do and who they impact through showing you this inspirational short video. Restore is making a difference in Uganda and all over the world and we get to partner with them as a community. This gives each and every one of us another way to make an impact on a part of the world that we may never see and help build classrooms for Restore Leadership Academy. Doing this allows us to reach beyond ourselves and show love to future leaders. I wanted to let you know about this a month ahead of time, so you could not only find out more about Restore International and what they do, but also to let you think about how you can make an impact. We will need $30,000 to make this happen, but I know we can do this. It is a big goal, so I need your help as well as help from your friends in this, as I definitely can’t do it without you.

I don’t know about you, but it is difficult not to get excited about huge goals like this.

Watch the above video. More details are coming soon as well as a giving page and ways that you can share this information with your social media networks. Let us put leadership into action next month, because helping others is what it is all about.

A Beginner’s Guide to Social Media

Everyone has a story or information that they want and need to get out to others, but don’t always know the best way to share it. Maybe you have experienced this before yourself. Social media is a great way to effectively get your message out as quick as possible to the masses and focus on the next big thing. Some of my most popular posts are about social media, so I am taking notice that more people are interested in increasing their online presence.

It also happens more often than ever before that someone asks me about social media and where to start, so I wanted to share how I started with social media and grew it to where it is today. It eventually became beneficial for me as an individual, but whether you are an individual or a business, you can use these ideas to form your own social media plan.

Here are the different sites that I focused on to build my network and their benefits to you:
