Are you getting even a tiny bit bothered by all the hype you hear these days about “social media?”
The learner in me enjoys most of the hype (though I do chuckle over how many self-proclaimed social media experts there are now.) A reasonable dose of the more popular themes will steer me in the right direction as I get involved: Think of ‘hype’ as lessons-learned evangelism and it becomes more appealing.
At the heart of it all, social media is about communicating with each other, and that gives us a lot to learn! Communication — in all shapes and forms — is timeless, is necessary, and can be complex considering we do so much of it…
Quick review:
We’ve been talking about banishing mediocrity (because it is THE biggest sin committed in business) and about creating energy instead (because energy generates to Ho‘ohana power). Energy is the greatest resource managers (who both manage AND lead) have at their disposal.
No energy, no action. No action, no business life to speak of.
And in my view, business, whether the business of work, or the business sensibility of life, is a great playground to Ho‘ohana within.
Let’s dig into this a bit more. I’ll share one of my favorite mantras with you from an Alaka‘i leadership perspective today: Make it easy, and make it hard.
Has our mid-year check given you more butterflies?
Has it given you more stress, or anxiety about your goals?
Or has it helped to know that you aren’t alone, and the best laid plans do go awry… we can simply make a new agreement with ourselves and move on, move better.
Or maybe you’ve been one who has read different conversations here, and thought to yourself, “This is so cool, I think I’ve gotten a lot more done than I first thought!” (And by the way, if you haven’t tried it yet, that is precisely the magic of Rapid Fire Learning.)
If any of this sounds familiar, you’re probably up in arms, deep in the throes of the Battle of the Learner and Over-Achiever. At ease! (Please?) Pull up a chair, and let’s take a break.
Got my new Canon today! Quick macro test, and just using the easy-shoot setting :) Of the cantaloupe vine shoots.
