TGIM!

Are you searching to be awesome?

Are you trying to mimic the person next to you, or someone else?

Are you worried you aren’t smart enough, have enough experience, or having trouble adapting?

These two things are the key ingredient to making your career a blooming success.

And they are so easy, you won’t even believe it.

JOY AND AUTHENTICITY.

1.  JOY. People want to be around people that are happy.  But be beyond happy, joyful.  From your phone interactions to your demeanor in a casual hello, the best people are the most joyful.  Joyful means no matter what storm is thrown at them, they realize life is a gift.  Be joyful.  People will be attracted to you like fish to water.  Joyful is not only being happy, but expressing it. Oh, and if you have to… fake it.  Soon you will fall into the groove.  Which wolf will you feed?  
   
2. AUTHENTIC.  Be yourself.  Don’t fake it.  No not everyone will love you, we are all different, but everyone will appreciate you.  YOU were made for a reason, every part of you, every piece of hair, or what’s left of your hair, and because of that, embrace that.  People will appreciate that.   They want the piece of you that they aren’t.   They need you to be better themselves.  BE REAL.

Think about it.  Your favorite coach, your favorite teacher, your favorite relative.  I bet they were JOYFUL AND AUTHENTIC.   We tend to forget the rest.
