5LQ Episode 229: Jamie Ivey –

In this episode of the 5 Leadership Questions podcast, Todd Adkins and Daniel Im are joined by Jamie Ivey, host of The Happy Hour podcast and author of If You Only Knew. During their conversation, they talk about learning from those a few steps ahead, prioritizing your schedule, and how learn from failure. BEST QUOTES “Our stories matter, and God is in them.” “Find people who are a few steps ahead of you, watch them, ask them questions, and get them involved in your life.” “Watching people online is fine, but watching people in real life is where you actually see what is going on in their world.” “It is so important to be in environments where you are a learner and not always the leader.” “It is important for leaders to stop and not just give to do lists, but ask can I do anything for you on a personal level.” “We try to look at our calendars and ask, what are the things that we have to do, what are the things that we need to do, and then we fill in the wants when we can find a place for them.” “Trust the people that God has put in front of you.” “We are called to lead those who are right in front of us.” “If you crush your now, it will lead to your next.” RECOMMENDED RESOURCES If You Only Knew by Jamie Ivey The Happy Hour with Jamie Ivey Sparrow Conference We’d like to thank our sponsor NRB TV.
