Soaking up knowledge  

Posted by Stephen Lowe

I spent part of the day hanging out with the Executive Pastor at Revolution Church, Tim May. I had a great time and enjoyed talking with him. One of the best ways I know to get better at your job is to hang around other guys that do the same thing as you as much as possible. It was interesting talking to him because his background is almost the complete opposite of mine but our job descriptions are almost identical. This is someone I will definitely be talking to going forward and I hope to connect with more of these guys from churches as well.

Sometimes we run into problems we can't solve not because there isn't a solution, but because we can only look at the issue from the perspective of our experience. Having another peer, with a different perspective to bounce problems off of when you are stuck is invaluable. You would think that this would be a "no duh" type of statement but it still amazes me how many times I see someone continually banging their head against the wall, trying to solve a problem because they are too prideful to ask for help.
