In the second part of our series, "The Internal Struggle of Leadership," we dive into four challenges every leader faces: praise, impostor syndrome, fear, and perfectionism.
Praise: Recognition feels great, but how we handle it defines our character. Proverbs 27:21 says praise is a test. Accepting it humbly or crediting our team shows true leadership.
Impostor Syndrome: Ever felt like a fraud? You're not alone. Even successful leaders face this. Gideon's story in Judges 6 reminds us that doubts don't disqualify us—they push us to rely on God's strength.
Fear: Whether it's fear of failure, criticism, or the unknown, fear can hold us back. But remember, God tells us "Do not fear" over 365 times—once for every day of the year!
Perfectionism: The pressure to be perfect can lead to burnout. Instead, embrace progress over perfection. A balanced approach fosters growth and creates a supportive, productive environment.
