"What is Thought Leadership?" There was a time when my thoughts came from a broken heart, afraid of rejection and abandonment.
My musical choices, clothing, hair, even language often mirrored what I thought would be accepted.
I became rebellious after getting so tired of trying to belong. I called that rebellion “empowerment” and “confidence”, but really it was a need to prove “the real me” was valuable. This “thinking” was prideful and led me down a road ending in destruction.
God met me in my darkest hour.. in the silence and isolation of it. 🙏🏾When I received a new heart, my mind was renewed and I could see the world from a place of abundance. I didn’t hope for acceptance. I was accepted by a God greater than people.
Since then, rebellion has become “knowing who I am, without fear of anyone’s opinion”. That kind of “thought leadership” isn’t rooted in anger or disenfranchisement. It’s not rooted in coming back from being rejected. It’s rooted in abundance. It’s rooted in the hand of God being the maker of my life and my purpose… something no one can take.
I have peace about me now. I still have memories. They can be challenging at times, but my strength isn’t in my anger now… it isn’t in rebellion and angst. My strength isn’t in yesterday. It’s not in the past. It’s in a purpose that’s larger than me.
Thought leadership is the bravery to perceive from a new mind and be confident walking towards the truth.
Let’s lead with love. It’s a much lighter load. I’m sure.
