Well as leaders, we know that we make our decisions and then our decisions make us.

Today, I want to help you make better leadership decisions tomorrow by thinking ahead today.

Hey, welcome to another episode of the Craig Roeschel Leadership

Podcast.

For those of you that are new to our leadership community, we drop a new teaching on the first

Thursday of each month, then a bonus episode on many Thursdays. But guess what? This is not a Thursday because we're doing something different to

celebrate something that matters a lot to me. Today is the release day for my new

book called Think Ahead. Seven Decisions you can make today for the God honoring life that you want tomorrow.

What's it about? Well, we all want to be good decision makers, but a lot of times we don't make great decisions in the moment, do we?

We eat more than we should, we say things we shouldn't say, we do things we didn't want to do.

This book I believe will help you to make better decisions

when you think ahead and we're actually going to pre-decide ahead of time seven decisions that will help you honor God in the way that you live.

To be clear, this book is written from a Christian perspective and what I want to do because I'm so

excited about release day is I want to give you our leadership community a very special free gift in this episode. I'm sharing a portion of my favorite section of the audiobook with you.

And if you'd like to hear more, you can order the audio version or you can pick up a copy of the book Think Ahead on Amazon or wherever you get your books.

So if you're ready, let's think ahead and dive in.

Chapter 6.

Start with Why. I want to get you thinking about your what. But more important, first

we need to talk about your why. A week what can detour your pursuit of your goal. A week why will keep you from pursuing it in the first place.

A week what is a problem. A week why is a problem.

A week why is a deal killer.

Your why is your first and most important domino.
