In the video "Being A Good Bad Guy," AJaytheCEO discusses the challenges and responsibilities of leadership in media ministry. He emphasizes the importance of making tough decisions that may not always be popular but are necessary for the team's success. Drawing from his personal experience, AJay explains how constructive criticism, even when it's hard to hear, helps individuals and teams grow. He uses analogies from sports and music to illustrate the role of leadership in pushing people beyond their comfort zones while ensuring the overall quality of the ministry’s output, especially in the context of media production.

Just because you can do everything yourself doesn't make your media ministry effective, especially when you have a team of people ready to use their gifts and talents in the ministry.

Don't waste your time expecting people to listen to you when they already know everything. No amout of experience or expertise will make people listen to you.

You are doing all you know to do but nothing is changing. You have a burning desire in your heart that is calling you to more but how can you possible do anything more. You feel like you have plateaued. Where do we go from here when it seems like you are stuck in the same place no matter what you do?

Serving your purpose does not make you immune to hurt. Even though our service is for God, people benefit from it and sadly those people sometimes do not appreciate it and can be down right mean and can hurt you in spite of your intentions.

We can do anything we set our mind to do; whether it is to make something learnable or to make something unlearnable. The choice is yours.

What do you do when there is a issue in the team and people are going against leadership?
