Influencing Others, Be Mindful of YOUR Actions!

I#truthbetold (Please take a minute to read. This pertains to everyone) To know we feel the same and we aren’t alone is comforting! Even outside of the “back to school” frenzy, there are similar circumstances and situations we can all relate to.

A mom calls out to her daughter “Samantha! Wake up! You’ll be late for school.” The daughter replies, “Mom, I don’t want to go to school! The teachers and students hate me! Give me one reason I should go!” The mom says back, “You should go because you’re the principal!” Sometimes we just need a little bit of a mindful humor to let it all out!

As working parents and stay at home parents struggle to figure out the plan and what to do for this coming school year, remember your children are watching how you handle this and will follow your lead. Heat of the moment outbursts or remarks made from frustration and resentment can fuel the fire with your children, co-workers and friends. The reality.... If you’re negative, speaking angrily and showing ugliness on this situation, they will too. When it comes to the first day of school, a negative tone has already been set and they won’t want to learn. Your negativity has the possibility of affecting the behavior of children and young adults, and possibly leading them to have more negative tendencies. Change your mindset and theirs will too. It will make the biggest difference and a happier learning environment. Be mindful of your actions and words. Just like your work, client meetings and unforeseeable situations in the workplace we handle them as best as possible. Never let them see you sweat! Be the difference.

Be You, Be Happy, Be in the NOW! Remember, you can’t lead a positive life with a negative mind. Until then…Don’t Coast in Neutral, Positive Shift Ahead! ~ Stacie René
