Senior pastor of Daystar Christian Centre Sam Adeyemi has revealed he thought he was not good enough to be a leader because of introversion and shyness.
The televangelist revealed this in a Twitter thread on Tuesday.
“I didn’t think I was leadership material while young because of my introversion and shyness,” he said.
“It changed when I was loaned a book on leadership, where the author listed the qualities of a leader and said we all have some of the qualities already and can develop the rest.”
Continuing, Adeyemi wrote: “I looked at the list. He was right. My self-esteem soared. The world is negative and teaches us helplessness by making us focus on our failures.”
He named the book which changed his life as Learning Christian Leadership by Donald Aultman.
Adeyemi urged his followers to remind themselves every morning and night of their positive qualities and achievements and improve effectiveness in their work.
The preacher was recently welcomed into Forbes Coaches Council as an influential life coach.
