A third area where an "Achievers Mindset" differs from a "Leader Mindset" is in the realm of Motivation.
High Achievers are Self-Motivated. Just look at any successful salesperson and you'll see it's true. If you want to be a high achiever, then you must learn to be self-motivated.
High Leaders Motivate Others. In addition to motivating themselves, high level leaders learn the art of motivating others on their team as well! Not only do they know that they are responsible for the morale and motivation of themselves, they own the responsibility to keep team members motivated as well!
We can't assume in team life, that people are self-starters and self-motivators. Ever. We must take full ownership for keeping the people we lead motivated, growing, learning and stretching. That's not always easy, but it's essential.
How are you doing at motivating the people you lead? How would they say you're doing at keeping them motivated?
Just a bloggish thought,
Matt

About
Matt Keller is the founding and lead pastor of Next Level Church in Fort Myers, FL. What began as 35 people in a movie theater has now grown into a prevailing and relevant church with over 2,000 regular attenders who are passionate about making a difference not only in Southwest Florida, but in churches across the USA. If you had to describe Matt in 90’s TV character terms, he would most resemble an extreme sugar version of Chandler Bing from the hit show Friends.

I think clear expectations are essential to the motivating of leaders. Roles and responsibilities are such a "drag" at times, note we all have to do them, but a clear definition of those expectations aid in motiving people. There are so many things that people do we have no idea how they do it, which could be very intimidating to motivate, it still should not keep us from motivating or help grow or even encourage our leaders to excel if they have clear defined roles. You do not have to know the "hows" of there jobs, but rather hold their feet to the roles you have assigned them and then motivate and encourage them.
Just my thoughts
