#1 - Let People Know You Need Them
Do you find it hard to say the words, ‘I need you’?
I used to find it very difficult to say this because I didn’t want to give the impression to others that I am such a weak person. I want to be strong in the eyes of others, even though I am so weak deep in my heart.
I once told my leader that I wanted leave KL for good. I want to have that kind of lifestyle that I thought I deserve. I gave him as many reasons as I could but I still wasn’t able to convince him.
He kept asking me to stay back in KL because he told me that he needed me to stay. Truly, I thought over it and I’m glad that I chose to stay back.
He influenced me because he told me that he needed me. He still needs me.
It is not so much about him needing me to stay and help him to lead people together. It is the potential he sees in me and he wants to bring me where he sees me to be.
So if you are a leader, you need to let them know that you need them. They will feel appreciated when they acknowledge that they could be of use for the organisation or company.
If you have a vision for the team, you will need to inspire them to participate in your dreams together.
My pastor had a vision that he will leading a large church. He started with only 20 people. He imparted and inspired the 20 members to achieve the dreams together. He constantly tell his members that he needed them, shared his vision to them and continued to work together with them.
They know very well that they are needed by the pastor and today, after 7 years, the church has more than 1,2oo members. I know because this is the church I am attending.
Imagine this young pastor was doing this all by himself, it is just impossible for him to grow the church.
Remember I told you about that I did not want to look so weak in the eyes of others by telling people that I need them? I was wrong.
You know, the strongest person on earth is the person who tells you that he needs you.
So friends, let people know that you need them.
