Proverbs 14: 8 (NLT) The prudent understand where they are going, but fools deceive themselves.
Reflective understanding and active thinking are activities that happen in rest and stillness.
Yes, activities. Not some empty-minded mediation; but quiet, reflective thinking about purpose, mission, and strategy. It is the prudent leader who takes time to think, to reflect and to meditate on the possible actions and their effect on the team, the customer and stakeholders.
Reflection or deception – that seems to be the choice in this verse.
Believing leaders consult their Creator in prayer and meditation, asking for wisdom and discernment to understand the times, not only in the business environment but also, more importantly, in the shaping of their lives to be more like Christ.
Are you a prudent leader?
