Low on fuel

# Chapter 105

All out of gas. This happens when you don’t fill the tank. I know that this sounds quite obvious, but since it still happens over and over in people, then it still needs to be said. You run out of gas if you don’t refill the tank. No one is a self-perpetually-filling unlimited source of fuel. And that fuel is needed regularly in everyone. Most of the leaders that I am working with at the moment, are running dangerously low on fuel. And after giving and giving and giving for four days I am running low. These local leaders have the systems in place to refilling their tanks, only if they are making margin for that to happen. I on the other hand flew in four days ago and have zero of my systems in place except this one, which is actually a system that consumes, and doesn’t give. My other systems of working out, reading, and music give fuel to my tank. But I can’t bring the gear with me on this relatively short trip across the country and I can’t replace it locally because the agenda and schedule is driven relentlessly by the people who brought me here who appropriately wish to make the most of the money that they spent.

I get it, but I need more fuel if I am to go and give further. Needed to be more insistent on getting that temporary gym pass even though the schedule would not give me enough time there. I need to be more insistent in my protecting the asset - me! I can’t go if I don’t have fuel. Neither can you.
