Often the world of work is no different. I hear the cries to be different, to embrace innovation, and to be more progressive. Then all of the close-minded biases raise their ugly heads and the organization (and it's people) suffer.
Work Blessings
As I reflect on the polarized world we live in, it strikes me that I have an awful lot to be thankful for in spite of all the noise. It's too easy to fall into the trap that everything around us is "bad."
That's simply not true.
While I may be repulsed at the behavior of our political leaders, I certainly have other leaders in my life who are nothing short of world-class. I work with a team of people who are committed to doing their best work every day...and it shows...as the results of their work has allowed my company to grow at a dramatic rate.
Personal Blessings
I am blessed with three incredible children, an amazing family, and close relationships that I wouldn't trade for anything.I am a bit of a fitness junkie, and have discovered a passion for healthy eating and daily workouts that not only help me keep pace with my busy life, but help me feel great too.
The church I joined is an open, welcoming community of faith the treats every person with respect, no matter what their background or experiences may be.
Lastly, I live in a part of the world that can only be described as paradise.
How About You
Today I'm going to let all the folks caught up in their miserable, negative existence stay right where they are. There's no room for them. I'm too busy focusing on the incredible blessings all around me.
What blessings have you overlooked?
I'd love to hear from you.
No Excuses.
