Who Needs to Hear from You Today?

Who need to hear from you.png

It generally takes so little effort to nurture a relationship, a contact, a human being.
Many times a quick call, email, note card or text will have a bigger impact than we can imagine.
So today... let us reach out to at least three people. 3️⃣❗️
It will not only make us feel good, it can make a difference in our personal life and in business.
Reaching out to those that will welcome hearing from us is not a big effort and it can be impactful.

Immigrant Superpower

We all have our superpowers... and if you have experienced different cultures and speak different languages... you are already gifted with a different perspective and if you add a new language to your set of skills, you can already see beyond what others perceive. Diversity is powerful.

Befriend somebody different :)

Influencer or Leader?

We have a choice... We can be simply an Influencer or... a true Leader. We can be simply "famous" or we can inspire and lead to be the BEST. The Best professional, the Best partner, the Best business person, the Best example, the Best parent, the Best friend... The Best HUMAN.

LWBJ: It's not Personal, It's Business

The fear of rejection in business and careers, is many times one of the biggest roadblocks to success, as rejection is simply part of business and life.

Thinking about this common fear, I was drawn to listen to this TEDx Talk: How Not To Take Things Personally. The speaker took a part-time job as a sports referee, to experience rejection and negative feedback at its worst. His goal was to hopefully learn to deal with his feelings and reactions. In a nutshell, he concluded that people's actions have either nothing to do with us or maybe they have all to do with us. And when they have to do with us, it is not necessarily due to how others feel towards us because of who we are, or what we do. It is mostly due to the fact, that other people's actions might trigger in us feelings, or assumptions, we have about ourselves.

People like to do business with people. So yes, business is personal. Our emotions and unique stories can be great for our business. However, it pays to train to manage emotions, and be alert to what triggers in us reactions that might not be the most desirable.

I invite you to watch my latest video on my youtube channel: What Triggers You? and maybe gain more insights.

"Business is personal, and relationships do matter," says Morag Barrett, the founder of the leadership development firm SkyeTeam and author of the new book "Cultivate: The Power of Winning Relationships." "This is a team sport. You are dependent on others for your success."

I will continue to send messages that will hopefully be inspirational and thought-provoking for you. I invite you to subscribe to the channel to be notified of new releases.

Stay healthy, joyful, and connected,
