MAREES WEEKLY MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE
You can't push rope"-But you can lead, with a smile and therefore balance it..
Take 1 minute to enjoy your Monday Motivational read 4U.
A student assigned to write an essay about an effective leader wrote this story:
“I’ve been taking a bus to school for years. Most passengers keep to themselves and no one ever talks to anyone else. “About a year ago,an elderly man got on the bus and said loudly to the driver, ‘Good morning!’
Most people looked up, annoyed, and the bus driver just grunted. The next day the man got on at the same stop and again he said loudly, ‘Good morning!’ to the driver.
Another grunt.
By the fifth day, the driver relented and greeted the man with a semi-cheerful ‘Good morning!’ The man announced, ‘My name is Benny,’ and asked the driver, ‘What’s yours?’ The driver said his name was Ralph.
“That was the first time any of us heard the driver’s name and soon people began to talk to each other and say hello to Ralph and Benny.
Soon Benny extended his cheerful ‘Good morning!’ to the whole bus. Within a few days his ‘Good morning!’ was returned by a whole bunch of ‘Good mornings’ and the entire bus seemed to be friendlier.People got to know each other.
“If a leader is someone who makes something happen, Benny was our leader in friendliness.
“A month ago, Benny didn’t get on the bus and we haven’t seen him since. Everyone began to ask about Benny and lots of people said he may have died. No one knew what to do and the bus got awfully quiet again.
“So last week, I started to act like Benny and say, ‘Good morning!’ to everyone and they cheered up again. I guess I’m the leader now...
I hope Benny comes back to see what he started.” Remember, character counts.
HERE ARE A FEW SUGGESTIONS:
Why not say" Good Morning all."
What if you become the initiator, not the dictator, not the complainer, not the follower..
MAREES MOTIVATIONAL WORD: A leader leads by example, while forming healthy relationships with individuals and teams, ensuring that their potential is not only enhanced but met in whatever role that is in.
Initiate that which you want yourself.
Be sure you have the right person in front of you who can actually do something about changes. You are never too old, or too young.
You catch more of anything with honey right..
