Loving Monday: Who’s Got Your Back?
It’s a challenge to stay fully engaged and keep working hard when we feel we’re on our own.
We need friends. We need fans. We need allies. We need cohorts. We need cheerleaders. We need partners. We need loyalists.
We need to know that someone is on our side.
Who is that person for you?
Who’s got your back when you’ve made a mistake and need an advocate?
Who’s got your back when you need a leg up, an encouraging word, or some cover from criticism?
Whose name comes to mind for you? Anyone?
If no one comes to mind, then consider building a couple closer relationships. It doesn’t have to be anything major or intimate.
What you want is to begin building rapport, comfort in conversation, and trust in communication.
You will be surprised at how much trust expressing interest is what someone else is doing will earn you.
Going it alone is going the hard way.
Who can you show some support to today?
On your side,
- Karl Edwards
