There are so many ways to speak about Tim Tebow: Team Player, Humble, and so on...
But I want to focus on...you guessed it...his leadership skills. Here are 3 things you can do as a leader to be more like Tim Tebow.
1. Always share the credit
Watch any Tim Tebow press conference, and you will hear the press begging, clamoring and pleading for him to talk himself up...to share how he won the game for his team...to gloat...
and Tebow never bites. He continues to talk about team and togetherness and all for one and one for all.
He does not disparage his teammates if they make a mistake, and they reciprocate - which is good, since Tebow makes many more mistakes than his team.
2. Always believe until the end
I am a Tebow fan, and I still thought yesterday's win was impossible. But I watched, and saw the improbable. When you think your team is out of it, keep believing until the 5:00 whistle blows.
3. Always keep your priorities in order
I know, I know...God does not care about football. But he does care about people, and I know that he is a big fan of those of us who teach people about him and his son Jesus Christ.
Sometimes we are stressed out as a leader, and we are looking to the wrong things for help. Perhaps we should just go to the source when we are at a loss - and He will be there for us.
Those three ideas should help you be a better leader...and if they don't, then you can always try Tebowing after a big team meeting

Good ideas. I'm a Tebow fan, too. He's doing something right, don't you think? Many of us don't want to rely on anyone but ourselves, but if we will keep our focus on Him, and seek His guidance, He will cause our plans/works to be successful. Go Tim.
