Student Leadership University’s mission is to develop and equip student leaders to think, dream, and lead. We strive to instill future tense thinking; character-driven decision making; ownership of biblical values; and a commitment to influence through service.

Show Notes:Preorder Brent's new book here:

The longer you put off responsibility the more devastating it will be to your life over the long term.

The more responsibility you have in life the more purpose you will have.

Making it from college to adulthood is navigating the chaos that is out of your control.

One: Get dressed for work everyday. Develop a rhymn of getting dressed for work every day. Even if you work from home everyday.

The Intern - Brent references a scene from this film.

There is a capacity that comes with compartmentalizing in a heathly way.

Two: Stay healthy through diet and exercise
It’s about being healthy and functioning for the glory of God.

Life is a marathon, not a sprint.

In this season of life your developing disciplines will last a life time.

These disciplines not only contribute to physical health, but mental health.

Find what is best for you when choosing a diet plan. Consult your doctor or nutritionist. Consult the experts.

Diets die, rhymes live.

Three: Build in healthy community
Build in community in the workplace.

Avoid communities of gossip.

It’s easier to lose community in adulthood than anything else.

Life is the law of compounding interest at work.

You want tpo make sure you have a community full of assets not liabilities, full of people who have been where you desire to go snd people who have the same worldview as you.

Four: Try new things

Go to that cooking class.
Try that new club.
Join that running club.

There’s something healthy about new things.

Stockpile experiences.
In this we expand our worldview and find things we did know we liked.

The Tough Mudder

Trying a new thing gives you the appetite to try more new things.

Sit in the moment and don’t worry about next.

A Long Obedience in the Same - Eugene Peterson
