Influence your day

Could you ever imagine that you are the best solution to a bad day?

Your perspective and your power to choose your own actions are all you need to turn your day from mediocre (or terrible!) into better (or even great!).  By taking a different approach and possibly getting outside your comfort zone, you may find some surprising rewards.

Instead of focusing on "having a good day", you have a unique opportunity to empower  yourself, and energize those around you by "making it a good day".  Energy is contagious, and it is up to you what type of energy you are sharing with others.  Feeling challenged with that perspective?  Try directing your focus on making it a good day for those around you.  This can be challenging to think about, but does not require any grand gestures.  Take an extra moment with those around you.  Whether it be at work, at home, the gym, or anywhere, ask someone how they are doing, or how their weekend went, and spend the next few moments to LISTEN to them, really listen.  Then build from there.


How will you start influencing your day?
