Does Your Heart Beat This?

I'm grateful you and I are connected. Think about it. Being connected with another human! Connection is a gift. Especially in a hyper-active, tech-crazy world. Life can quickly become preoccupied building a business, chasing a goal, or finding meaning in life. In this pursuit, often the answers we need, the meaning we long for, and the whole reason for business is right in front of us ... people.

Gratitude amplifies connection ...

But, are we really connecting (deeply) with the people in our lives? See, no one has entered our lives by accident. From this belief exudes a powerful sense of gratitude and amplifies every interaction with your people! Our spouses, kids, friends, business colleagues, and every relationship thrives when they FEEL your heart beat, "WOW! I get to do life with you!"

What about our social presence and following? It's the new community where most young people are searching for REAL connection. Do we interact with our followers, or are they simply countless avatars and profiles? They're humans, too, and they follow us for a reason. Let them know this week that you're grateful for them!

Gratitude is a powerful force!
