Cartoon of a guy observing a woman sleeping on her computer keyboard. He says, “Whoops! It looks like another case of Keyboard Face!”
You can tell this cartoon is a little older by the shape of the monitor. Do you remember those heavy, computer monitors? They had those lead-lined cathode ray tubes (CRT‘s)? I don’t miss those one bit!
Cartoon of a panicking pastor. He says to an administrative professional, “Quick! I’m writing my sermon and I just realized I needed to buy more vowels!”
What would we do without our vowels?
W_’d b_ _n _ l_t _f tr_ _bl_! Thank you, Wheel of Fortune! You probably bought all the vowels and caused a shortage for this pastor.
I attended a session where Jeff Henderson (@JeffHenderson), Lead Pastor at Gwinnett Church, talked about public speaking.
At yesterday’s Orange Conference, I heard Clay Scroggins give a great talk on leading yourself. The big takeaway I got from this talk is the importance of balancing positivity with a critical thinking. It is important to think critically in order to make things better while keeping a positive spirit. it is a balance, much like balancing between an aggressive and passive approach in leadership. Neither extreme is helpful.
My day at The Orange Conference began with a great talk by Mike Clear (Twitter: @mclear).
My big takeaway was to lead by being strategic and use the rhythms of the seasons to help parents and kids connect.
