Leading with Faith and Gratitude




In uncertain times, when business slows down or daily routines are disrupted, we’re given a unique opportunity to pause and reflect. This isn’t just a time to get through—it’s a chance to work on your business instead of in it. Let’s explore how we can use this period to refocus, realign with our values, and extend compassion to ourselves and others.




Work ON Your Business When You Cannot Work IN It - Especially During Uncertain Times for Leaders

  1. Use downtime to reflect on your business



This time can be a reflection and catch-up time to look back over the last year, and put things in order that have been on your mind for a while. 



What are your Core Values and are you living up to them? Have they changed? What is your Core Focus? Niche? 10-year target? 3-year plan? 



It can be a great time to take a clarity break and put things in place for the future and in order by looking to see what is really important to you.





  1. “Ways to Be”:



 


Ask yourself: 


How will I trust God today? How will I translate that trust into action?



 



Patience - It is a virtue you will want to embrace and gain during this time.



Helpful - Do something for a client, friend, neighbor, family member, or stranger. Reach out and make a difference to those less fortunate. What you do comes back to you.


Still - Be present to your needs and those of others.




 


Reach out your heart.


Reach out your words.


Reach out all the tendrils


of compassion that move, invisibly,


where we cannot touch.





 



Downtime can be a gift, allowing us to regroup and plan for a stronger future. 




By trusting God, embracing patience, and offering kindness, we can navigate uncertainty with purpose and grace. 



Remember, every small act of compassion makes a difference, and every moment of reflection moves us closer to our goals. Let’s use this time wisely.
