About this ebook

How to replace inner chaos with an emotional awareness that will maximize your influence and result in a calmer, less stressful, and more fulfilling life.

While many leaders train themselves on how to tune-out external distractions that keep them from being productive, they remain deaf to the inner desires and emotions churning beneath the surface. Pastor and author Clay Scroggins describes spiritual disciplines and tangible daily steps to help you incorporate four noise-cancelling habits into your daily life:

  • Finding simplicity – how does simplicity bring clarity?
  • Speaking to yourself – you're not crazy. Many of us do it; and there are real benefits!
  • Getting quiet – silence is difficult. Why emotionally healthy leaders make time for it.
  • Pressing pause – what does the word sabbath even mean, and why is it so important--on both a practical and a spiritual level?

By embracing these habits--business, church, and ministry leaders will be able to identify and understand their emotions and develop a calm and effective leadership style.

In this follow up to his bestselling book, How to Lead When You're Not in Charge, Clay Scroggins focuses on the real dangers of distraction and how to create space for personal evaluation and exploration.

Clay Scroggins

Clay Scroggins es el pastor principal de la Iglesia Comunitaria de North Point, que proporciona liderazgo visionario y direccional para el personal y la congregación de la iglesia local. Como el campus más grande y original de los ministerios de North Point, clasificado por la Revista Outreach en 2014 como la iglesia más grande de Estados Unidos, el NPCC tiene un promedio de asistencia de más de 12,000 personas. Clay trabaja para Andy Stanley, uno de los líderes más grandes del planeta, y entiende de primera mano cómo manejar la tensión de líder cuando no estás a cargo. Comenzando como pasante de instalaciones (también conocido como vicepresidente de nada), se ha abierto camino en muchos niveles organizativos de los ministerios de North Point y conoce muy bien el desafío de la privación de autoridad. Clay es graduado de Ingeniería Industrial en Georgia Tech, así como una maestría y un doctorado con énfasis en la Iglesia en línea del Seminario Teológico de Dallas. Vive en el condado de Forsyth, Georgia, con su esposa Jenny y sus cuatro hijos.
