Yesterday I spent a good deal of time with a wonderful gentleman and his wife, discussing the prospect of us working together to design a training programme for his company. We were talking about the imminent retirement of a person who has been a senior member of his staff.
As we spoke, it felt so good to me to feel his caring and concern for the people he worked with, as they went through this major time of transition.
His determination to consider and explore our joint philosophy, and some new training methods was exciting, and sparked us both, since our training methods are different than those he has implemented previously. He would now be working with people who are younger, and more original in their view of how the business could be run. My presentation focused on my belief that building a team of people who know, support, encourage and motivate each other is key to the growth of the company as well as each of the individuals involved. That balance furthers and supports everyone.
We all want to enjoy getting up in the morning, and anticipating our day. It seems to be elementary, and yet it eludes so many people.
Being able to learn skills that enhance our ability to get up enthused and eager to greet the work and the people with whom we work, makes such a huge difference in the lives of everyone involved.
Looking forward to what we are doing and with whom, enables everyone to prosper.
The ability to bring energy and joy into each part of our lives can truly expand us all. It trickles down to our co-workers, clients, and subsequently to so many people with whom we have come into contact.
Remember when you have walked into a room where two people are delighted and happy... you feel their happiness and carry that with you. You recognise how contagious that is. Similarly, having walked into a room where sad or negative energy was shared, you can feel the dankness and that too, sinks into you and colours your feelings.
We have chosen to live our lives by consistently implementing the principles of expanding our intention to live in happiness, co-operation, community and prosperity.
We believe it is not only possible but probable, when using the techniques that we study, and share, for that to be the ongoing reality of our lives and the lives of those we touch.
Bringing these ideas into the corporate world is always exciting. Sharing them with people as keen on creating that team and supportive community as this gentleman is, and giving them the tools to expand their personal and professional lives is our mission and our delight.
