The Beauty of Waiting

Really there is beauty in waiting....

Many, as well as I, have ended up awake at night because things are not going as fast as we would like for it to go.

 

I know... It doesn't help living in an
instant society.

Thankfully, I've learned to embrace the wait by enjoying my now. To tell you the truth it's all about guiding your mind.

Here are a few tips on what you can do as you wait:

1. Exercise
Going out for a walk, run, doing some yoga, etc. Endorphins are fantastic to get your mind clear. It can even help you jog in more ideas and guide your inspiration. Keep a pen near by.

2. Visit with Friends
Make a list of who you haven't seen for awhile and reach out to them. Call and then text. A nice meeting for a good chat of "what's new lately" can really help.

3. Laugh
You know what gets you laughing. This powerful emotion really does our bodies good and so does the mighty hug. So get going and find what tickles your funny bone. Share some hugs while your at it.

4. Let it Go!
For now, you did all the mind juggling that you could do. Give it to your higher source for the night. Touch base again tomorrow.

5. Last one --- Quotes
The power of inspirational words. This little quote really reminds me to enjoy my now as I wait:

 

 

Keep sparkling that inner you!

Always be a Rock Star!

 

ROCK STAR...you may say?

 

 

 

Really, your bosses are always looking for the next

Rock Star in the group.

 

 

Either for the next company opening, to create a new job, to become the next leader, to take her place in the future, etc.
 

 

This is what they call succession planning.

 

Here are a few tips on how to rock it like one:

1. Be Present
Stop getting caught looking at your phone (even if your bosses do it to -- they forget that they do). Be on time and ready to be present.

2. Enthusiasm
Folks who are shining light tend to greet others in the morning. Are alert and provide ideas. Do NOT entertain company gossip. They also bring positive energy to the staff.  

3. Creative Thinkers
These type of peeps are always adding input in meetings. They make one on one's with their bosses to show their latest presentation for an idea or task (without having to be told). We also love it when they train other coworkers or even encourage a group training presentation.  Also, checking out to see what the competition is doing and encouraging ideas. Talking and learning with their bosses and peers (yes, internal customers are your bosses too).  

4. Developing Themselves
Do not expect your boss to do this for you. Find out what type of training classes are available within the company or externally. Take on-line courses. Read books. When you learn a new strategy or idea -- share it with your co-workers and cc: your boss.
 
5. Shadowing
Request to shadow a peer, a position that your interested in within the company, or a team/department that you need to learn more from.

 

So what to you think?

Remember, leading yourself is key in this message. This is how true company ROCK STARS are made. Always be authentic and creative.
