NO ONE IS COMING
TO RECHARGE YOU.
The goal isn't a full charge. It's a charge you get to keep.
I was the one people counted on. Number one in the building. The one who handled it. I showed up fully charged to every job, every church, every family table, and people used what I brought. That's what a battery is for.
Then I ran down. I lost the work, the house, and two years of having a place to live before I learned the difference between being needed and being valued.
This book is what I learned on the way back, in twenty-one short chapters:
If you're the one everybody counts on, and you're quietly running down, I wrote this for you.
Seven Threats
What being needed costs you when nobody names the price.
Seven Truths
What is still true about you when the usefulness runs out.
Seven Steps
What you do with your power when it's yours again.
Which threat is running you down?
Seven threats. Five statements each. It names the two that are draining you most.
Coming with the book.
How to Be Counted On Without Being Used Up. 254 pages. Paperback, ebook, and audiobook read by the author.
Your most dependable people are running down.
Every organization has them. The ones who never say no. The ones who get handed every hard thing because they've never dropped one. They don't quit loudly. They run down quietly, and by the time anybody notices, they're already gone.
I was that person for thirty years. I know what it costs, and I know what changes it. The message is simple: being needed is not the same as being valued.
