The vision of the Project is simple, we are committed to <strong>&#8220;renewing souls and resourcing leaders&#8221;<\/strong>.\u00a0 However, sometimes in our passion to care for and develop the souls of these young leaders, we create our own business and subtly fail to live the very lifestyle in which we are calling these same leaders to join us in living.\u00a0 This past year, was one of these years.\u00a0 Many young leaders were cared for, equipped and resourced. Yet at the end of our year, my team and I were simply fried. Over the past week I have been dreaming about what the Project for 2013-2014, and more specifically how we can capture a healthy sustainable rhythm to our programing and experiences.<\/p>\n<p>This past week while reading <strong>The Back of a Napkin<\/strong> by Dan Roam I was prompted to begin solving our Project Renovation sustainability issue with napkins. More specifically in the reading I was drawn to Roam&#8217;s concept of the &lt;6&gt;&lt;6&gt; principle.\u00a0 Using the &lt;6&gt;&lt;6&gt; principle I was first able to look at the what and why through the use of flow chart.\u00a0 Below are the three targeted areas Project Renovation seeks to care for and equip individuals through.\u00a0 Each is connected to the other via vision and development phases.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"image\" src=\"http:\/\/media.tumblr.com\/d3f93c65b617992fbf2dba29db709f9a\/tumblr_inline_mn98ua4dst1qz4rgp.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Once I was able to sketch out the three main areas of concern, I then proceeded to use a &#8220;time series&#8221; chart to answer the how much. After charting what was done in the 2012-2013 school year, the level of activity was at an extreme pace for the entire year.\u00a0 Targeted reasons for intense pacing were too many new initiatives, a weekly blog spot, numeric growth exceeding our staffing and growth in non gifted areas.\u00a0 The following is a new pacing chart with sustainable rhythms built in <br \/>for 2013-2014. <\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"image\" src=\"http:\/\/media.tumblr.com\/4d65d4cb31b2556f55583e52f8f38a28\/tumblr_inline_mn98xe9i651qz4rgp.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Lastly, if a sustainable pacing is reached, using the &#8220;Visual Thinking Codex&#8221; the change which will occur will be three fold.\u00a0 One, the very balance we model in our ministry will be reflective of the very vision we proclaim.\u00a0 Two, with a sustainable pace, our leaders will be freed up to be present with God, each other and the very leaders we are trying to serve.\u00a0 And third, It will make for a happier Rick as seen below.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"image\" src=\"http:\/\/media.tumblr.com\/71db3e967b7531aa42f76a0bb5793a12\/tumblr_inline_mn990wNlcY1qz4rgp.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Rolling off the press next week to my leaders.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Over the past seven years I have directed a Spiritual Formation ministry directed at local and regional youth workers, named Project Renovation.
