2. ON OUR DREAM
Its the Dream
that something miraculous will happen
that it must happen-
that time will open
that the heart will open
that doors will open
that the rockface will open
that springs will gush-
that the dream will open,
that one morning we will glide into
some little harbor we didnt know was there.
--Olav Hauge
The Coach asks . . . what am I looking for? It could be right here maybe I have it?
3. ON SINCERITY
Professor Dacher Keltner did a study which indicates that the British have a more sincere, hard-to-fake smile than Americans. They are more likely to raise their cheeks when they smile, revealing the crows feet at the corners of their eyes. The smile doesnt fill our stomach, but you can take it to work and bring it to the platform. It will reduce our stress and that of others, help make an instant connection with people and provide an environment where anger is reduced an learning is increased.
The Coach sings . . .When youre smilin, the whole world smiles with you.
4. ON THE WAITRESS MENTALITY
CEO, Carolyn Gable, www.newagetransportation.com who was formerly a waitress, learned how to get along with the bartender, the cook and everyone else to go home with money in her pocket. She brings that attitude to her business keeps her employees, customers, and bank happy. She also learns this from her truckload of children (total 7). That really great feeling when you can see your child start to read is similar to seeing your employee whos been struggling finally get it. She draws several parallels between her children and her employees.
1. Never take clients (children) for granted.
2. Keep your word and follow through on promises made to clients (children)
3. Hire employees with a positive attitude who will be enthusiastic about their work and your customers needs.
4. Never criticize the competition. Focus on your business, not theirs.
The Coach thinks . . . a heavy dose of optimism and sunny disposition is a great formula for personal and professional success.
5. ON IMPACT
Neale Donald Walsch, author of bestseller "Conversations with God: an Uncommon Dialogue, creates a fresh perspective on conversing with God. As a speaker, he engages his audiences with his light, humorous writing style and makes his heavy material palatable. Walschs impact is so big because he makes skillful use of modern communication tools. The former radio reporter and amateur actor knows that it is not only the content of a message that is important, but the delivery as well.
