ALL IN … OR GET OUT!

Are you in or are you out? Too many business owners these days (and, yes, their employees and sales people, too) are only half-committed. They’re burned out, fed up, on the verge of going under.
They coast, going through the motions of their responsibilities, both dreaming about last weekend’s football game or watching the clock, counting the days ’til their mindless vacation to Disney World. They’re everywhere but present and focusing on their jobs, their careers, their lives.
The solution: Be there! Put the clock away. Focus on your responsibilities today … and on DOING them to the very best of your ability. Be surprised when five o’clock Friday arrives. (Oh, and then plunge head first into your weekend, too!)
Work hard. Make money. Have fun. And be there! – JRI
“BE THERE — The glue in our humanity is in being fully present for one another. Being there is also a great way to practice wholeheartedness and fight burnout, for it is those halfhearted tasks you perform while juggling other things that wear you out.”– Stephen C. Lundin (Fish! Tales)
