@mantharetso: If you want to build like a King, understand that discretion, secrecy and strategic gatekeeping are part of the game. There is a powerful account in 2 Kings 6:8–12, where the King of Aram was furious because the prophet Elisha kept exposing the military strategies he discussed privately in his war room. The king eventually discovered that Elisha was revealing even the words he spoke in his bedroom. Now, one of the things social media has done is erode our sense of discretion. We have become so accustomed to sharing everything that we no longer understand the value of keeping certain things to ourselves. But here is what you need to understand: your competitors, your adversaries and those who want to surpass you are interested in discovering what gives you a competitive advantage. Not everything is content. Not everything deserves an audience. Not everything should be accessible to everyone. Some things are your intellectual property. Some are your strategies. Some are your trade secrets. Some are the very things that give your brand its cutting edge. If you want to build an influential, prestigious and elite personal brand, learn the art of strategic discretion. Gatekeep what gives you an advantage. Protect what makes you exceptional. Leadership is not just about knowing what to reveal. It is also about knowing what to keep behind closed doors. You cannot build like a King while operating with the disclosure habits of someone who has no kingdom to protect.
