Lolly Daskal, President and CEO of Lead from Within, a global consultancy firm, offers us 12 inconvenient truths from her above titled article. Let us look at the following 10 of these inconvenient truths from a Bible perspective, along with pertinent scriptures and articles:1) Never confuse education with intelligence — While this statement is true, intelligence alone is not enough.
2) Pain can be positive (Romans 8:28; Hebrews 12:5-11).
3) You're the boss of your life — Are we really?
4) Failure is a stepping stone for success — Read about the life of Joseph to see if this statement is true.
5) Problems can start from within — Yes, they certainly can (see article).
6) High standards are worth keeping — Yes, they are (see article).
7) Negativity poisons the soul — (Proverbs 12:6; Proverbs 18:21).
8) Success is not the key to happiness — So true. Happiness comes from within a person (Proverbs 23:6-7). Many times, we look in the wrong places trying to find happiness.
9) If you wait until you are ready, you will be waiting for the rest of your life — So true. The time to start doing the Lord's work is now!
10) You owe something to the world, not the other way around — Very true. For example, what can we do for our country?
