THE 3 R’s OF PERSONHOOD

Kirk

1. ROLES — Who I Am (Identity)

Assigned and assumed positions in life

  • God-given identity (child of God)
  • Gender
  • Citizenship
  • Career / calling
  • Stage of life (season & fruit)

👉 Anchor: Identity before activity, You are created in God’s image!

👉 Danger: Confusing role with worth by itself

2. RELATIONSHIPS — Who I Love (Connection)

How I live out love vertically and horizontally

First: Love God

Then: Love People (ordered responsibility)

5 Relationship Roles of the hand

  1. Christian – a disciple of Christ
  2. Friend – striving to be a peace to all
  3. Spouse – to Jill, a princess and child of God
  4. Father – to Bailey, Allie and Audrey
  5. Business Owner Servant Leader – to Team, Customers & Community

👉 Anchor: Right order = right life

👉 Scripture tie: Mark 12:30–31

👉 Danger: Misordered priorities = chaos

3. RESPONSIBILITIES — What I Do (Stewardship)

What I’m entrusted to manage and multiply

  • Stewardship (time, talent, treasure)
  • Goals & calling
  • Purpose fulfillment
  • Service & good works
  • Grace-driven execution

👉 Anchor: Ownership + obedience

👉 Danger: Activity without purpose or surrender

🔶 CORE EQUATION

ROLES → define identity

RELATIONSHIPS → direct love

RESPONSIBILITIES → produce impact

👉 When aligned = FLOW 

🔶 PERSONAL + PROFESSIONAL APPLICATION

PERSONAL

  • Am I grounded in the right identity?
  • Are my relationships in the right order?
  • Am I stewarding what God gave me well?

PROFESSIONAL (OnGuard / KVS)

  • Roles → Clear org chart (who owns what)
  • Relationships → Culture: love people, serve customers
  • Responsibilities → KPIs, execution, Disciplan

👉 This fits PERFECTLY into:

  • SMARTER (thinking)
  • HARDER (doing)
  • BETTER (improving)
  • → leads to FLOW

🔥 COACHING TRUTH (No fluff)

Most people fail in life and business because they:

  • Misunderstand their role
  • Misprioritize their relationships
  • Avoid or neglect their responsibilities

You fix those three → you fix almost everything.

Summary: THE 3 R’s OF PERSONHOOD

ROLES — Who I Am: Identity before activity

RELATIONSHIPS — Who I Love: Love God. Love people. In the right order.

RESPONSIBILITIES — What I Do: Steward well. Execute faithfully.

→ Alignment produces FLOW. Misalignment produces friction.
