Hey friend,

Sometimes we just need to admit that we can't do it all. This week was one of those times for me. I've been extra busy and was out of town all last week so this week felt particularly crammed. So, I'm leaning on another Craig to help me out this week. Luckily, Craig is a much better leader than me and consistently creates incredible content.

So here are a couple of resources from Craig Groeschel, author of multiple books, pastor of Life Church, and host of the Craig Groeschel leadership podcast.

​Learning to Master Your Four Forms of Energy​

This article is so helpful. I've talked before about the importance of energy management, not just time management. Craig takes it a step further here to help you identify the kinds of energy we have to pay attention to.

​A Conversation with the author of Unreasonable Hospitality​

Unreasonable Hospitality by Will Guidara was one of the most helpful books I read last year. I'm still trying to find ways to apply the lessons from the book. This interview between Craig and Will is incredibly helpful. Will talks about the importance of learning from adversity, the power of hospitality, and the role of the leader in both.
​
Here's a powerful quote from the episode: "Feedback has to include praise and criticism. If praise is affirmation, criticism is investment." - Will Guidara

I hope these resources help you have a full circle moment about your life or leadership this week.

Till next friday,

Craig
