How To Become A Creative Leader People Want To Followنموونە

Take Responsibility 

Each of us has been entrusted with something, and we shouldn't take anything for granted. What did we have to do with the country where we were born or the family we became a part of? Nothing. It’s the same with our natural talents. There is a gift inside of you that even you haven't discovered yet.

Think about the story Jesus told: each servant was given money according to his ability. The word "ability" (dunamis) which is used in the New Testament 120 times can also mean "power" or "miraculous power". Your dunamis isn't a skill you developed. It is a supernatural empowerment God had for you so that you can grow and multiply it. You didn't earn your initial dunamis, but once you take responsibility of what you were given, you will be rewarded with more. 

Notice that they had to do something with what the master gave them. It wasn't an easy gift where you can lie back and know you are great whether you do something or not. They had to use it to make it grow. So many people neglect their creative gift because there is hard work and responsibility required; therefore, they often give up on their gift. 

Our gift shouldn't scare us. It's all we need to be able to give fruit, but there is one condition we have to meet - we need to accept the responsibility the gift requires. And when we work with our gift, more will be given.
