Listen to the latest 60 second episode of Integrity Moments with Rick Boxx
Integrity Moments is a 60 second workday devotional that provides business leaders with helpful insight into what the Bible says about our work and how we can fully integrate our faith into our vocational calling.

This week we have been discussing F.I.T.T. leaders. The final letter T represents Thanksgiving.

At the core of accomplished and effective leaders is thankfulness and a heart of gratitude.  Research has shown spending a few moments each morning writing down 5 things you are thankful for, creates an optimistic outlook for your day. Optimism is linked to joy, accomplishment, and higher job satisfaction.

Paul encourages us in Philippians 4:6 to approach each day with prayer and a heart of thanksgiving.  “Don’t be anxious for anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with THANKSGIVING, make your requests known to God.”

To be a FITT leader, commit the beginning of your day to voicing thankfulness for what you have, and thanking God for what He has and will do for you.

Action:  Start a gratitude journal.
