In this episode Blake Dalton shares a perspective about motivation, running meetings, and leadership.

It came as a result of the position of leadership which was imposed upon us by the God of heaven who brought forth a restoration of the

Gospel of Jesus Christ. And when the declaration was made concerning the only true and living church upon the face of the earth,

we were immediately put in a position of loneliness, the loneliness of leadership from which

we cannot shrink nor run away and to which we must face up with boldness and courage and ability.

Hey this is the leading LDS podcast. I welcome you back. Many listeners who tune in every few times a week to hear the latest of leadership perspective that we have and we love to share it.

If you're new to leading LDS, this is a podcast and a platform where we share all things leadership

related to a leadership in the Church of Jesus Christ or Latter-day Saints and we've been getting some

great feedback, got quite an audience going for us and so we're going to keep doing it.

I want to first start off before we get into the main topic and article of this episode

is to share some reader mail or audience mail.

People that have written me and give me their perspective and thoughts about the podcast,

about specific episodes, and I get so many of these I think man I need to I really

need to share these generally on the on the podcast it's fun to for others to

experience kind of the excitement that's going on out there in relation to leading LDS.

So this is an email I got from a listener.

He says, hello, my brother-in-law told me about your podcast, can't say enough how much I love them. It is funny because I was thinking your

intro of President Hinckley. The first podcast I listened to, I loved it. The first podcast I listened to, I loved it.

The second time I heard it, I really listened and thought that what he was saying is so true.

Now I feel bad admitting it, but I ignore it or fast forward past it.

It's too long. The podcast I listened to today you asked for people's thoughts on the intro.

I thought how timely. So my thoughts are a new one that is much shorter or change it up every four or five episodes.
