The week of the NATO Summit, the Wall Street Journal displayed a picture of fourteen world leaders staring into the sky, observing NATO aircraft flying above. Thirteen career politicians were all angled to their left, while the one business person, Donald Trump, was angled opposite of the group, and pointed to the right.
This picture is symbolic of the different world view most career politicians have from business people. Politicians, regulate and tax commerce, while business people try to create it.
Proverbs 17:24 says, “A discerning person keeps wisdom in view, but a fool’s eyes wander to the ends of the earth.”
Imagine what could happen if politicians and business leaders began listening to each other. Pausing to understand the viewpoints of others is critical in making wise decisions.
