I Will Be A Power Surge

What is your attitude when you come in to work? I don’t mean every single day, but generally how do you approach your Monday – Friday (at a minimum) life? Are you fired up; burned out; or somewhere in between?

Have you ever asked yourself why?

Well Done Is Rarely Good
Just like eating a good steak, serving it well done typically means the full impact has been lost. So too is our work life. If we’re so “done” with everything going on at work we’ve lost our ability to make a meaningful impact. That’s bad HR, plain and simple.

Nobody likes bad HR.

Fired Up is Always Good
It’s not easy when you have convinced yourself that you no longer enjoy your work. It may be your supervisor, colleagues, the workload, or perhaps the industry; what ever the reason, feeling down and out never feels good. So do something about it.

Decide to make a difference in the organization. Whether or not you feel like it doesn’t matter…decide to be a surge of energy into your company’s life. Get away from your computer, go round on the employees (all of the employees, not just the ones that report to you), and for God’s sake be positive when you’re doing it.
I know, I know…this all sounds mushy. So what. You don’t need to wait until you’re in just the right mood (how high maintenance are we anyway?!). Just get started. You’ll be amazed at the reaction you receive as you intentionally connect with the employees in your organization in a positive way. Try it…you’ll find out for yourself.
How About You
Are you going to be a power surge in your company today? Or, is it easier to make excuses and complain to the other slackers who wish they felt better about work and home and…. 

I’d love to hear from you.

No Excuses.
