When you’re preparing to hang out with or speak to students, it’s a great practice to always do a once-over of yourself. Look for things like boogers in your nose, make sure you don’t have nasty coffee breath, and of course, check your fly.
The added note in the video is spot on, and if you think about it, kind of relates nicely to the rest of the 10-sec tip. The only person you have control over and that you actually can change is yourself. You can’t control how kids react, the attitudes of your church leaders, the health of your adult volunteers, or even where your small group conversations end up. But you do have control over yourself… and whether your own fly is down.
