Leaders must prioritize their own spiritual health and longevity from "summary" of Leaders Who Last by Dave Kraft

As leaders, it is crucial that we recognize the significance of our own spiritual health and longevity. This is not just a matter of personal well-being, but it directly impacts our effectiveness as leaders. When we neglect our spiritual health, we are more prone to burnout, moral failure, and ultimately, ineffectiveness in our leadership roles. Prioritizing our spiritual health means making intentional choices to nurture our relationship with God. This may involve regular times of prayer, studying scripture, attending worship services, and seeking out spiritual mentors or accountability partners. It is about being intentional and disciplined in our spiritual practices, even when our schedules are busy and demanding. Leaders who prioritize their spiritual health are better equipped to handle the pressures and challenges that come with leadership. They are able to lead with integrity, wisdom, and humility, drawing strength and guidance from their relationship with God. This not only benefits the leader personally, but also has a positive impact on those they lead. In order to maintain longevity in leadership, we must be proactive in caring for our spiritual well-being. This may involve setting boundaries, practicing self-care, and seeking out opportunities for rest and rejuvenation. It is important to remember that our spiritual health is a priority, not just for our own sake, but for the sake of those we lead. By prioritizing our spiritual health, we are investing in our long-term effectiveness as leaders. We are laying a foundation for sustainable leadership that will endure over time. This requires discipline, commitment, and a willingness to prioritize what truly matters in our lives. In doing so, we can ensure that we are not only leading well in the present, but also setting ourselves up for a lasting legacy of leadership.
