QUEST- DRIVE- PURPOSE should describe a Leader
Who do you want on your team? Lethargic people who don't care about anything and seem to move without purpose in life?
Nancy Ortberg in a book on leadership writes: "I want people on my leadership team who are on a quest, people who are naturally curious and are drawn to journey of transformation. People who aren't satisfied with the status quo or life as usual. People who are on a quest are courageous. It is much easier to live "quest less," taking the path of least resistance, but people who are on a quest are willing to live with discomfort and ambiguity...People who are on a quest are transformed."
King David was this kind of a leader.
Right before he killed the giant Goliath he yelled out:
David's quest was to exalt God, that the whole world would know that Israel's God was the God of gods.
Always pick for your team people who have Drive, a purpose, who are on a quest and make sure they match your quest and purpose.

"This day the LORD will hand you over to me, and I'll strike you down and cut off your head. Today I will give the carcasses of the Philistine army to the birds of the air and the beasts of the earth, and the whole world will know that there is a God in Israel. 47 All those gathered here will know that it is not by sword or spear that the LORD saves; for the battle is the LORD's, and he will give all of you into our hands."
1 Samuel 17: 46-47
David's quest was to exalt God, that the whole world would know that Israel's God was the God of gods.
Always pick for your team people who have Drive, a purpose, who are on a quest and make sure they match your quest and purpose.
