Three dangers to watch out for as we run the race of faith
Part of the inspiration of the Paralympics is watching people embrace challenges where many of us in the same situation may well have given up.
There is a definite temptation as we get older to take the line of least resistance and to settle. I have days where I am not sure I can face the hassle of the stairs, getting in the car, going to the office and meeting people but I know it is better to move.
In leadership you will often hear from people who want things to be done differently. This can be viewed as an irritation but often it can be an agitation. Which comes from the same root as agitos (the symbol of the Paralympic Games). What we experience as stressful upheaval can be an opportunity to shake things up and move beyond what we have grown comfortable with.
