Have Fun: Today I had a very nice compliment from a client.
He is an older gentleman who has been around the block a time or two – he has travelled and been to many different businesses and locations.
What he said to me today hit home and I thanked him for his compliment and commented on it as well.
He said that he enjoyed coming in as I enjoy life, have a lot of fun with my clients and laugh – a lot, that I am very cheery.
He said he comes in sometimes, not to buy anything but just to chat for a few minutes, as he knows he will have a good time and leave happy and uplifted.
My comment was that I had not always been this way – I used to take life more seriously when I was younger but that as I have aged, I have learned to laugh, enjoy life more, and find my peace and joy regardless of what is going on.
It has definitely had an impact on me and obviously on my clients as well.
I am very grateful for his compliment/comment and happy that he expressed it.
So, have fun in what you do – it is noticeable to those around you and you will enjoy your job more as well.
The second thing that I would like you to take away from this is to tell people – be open and honest with people and let them know the positive impact they have had on your life.
So often we wait to tell other people at their funeral how wonderful they were. Take a moment instead while that person is living and tell them. That can really make the difference – appreciate those in business, personal or otherwise in life.
Questions to Ponder:
Do you have fun in your work? In your life?
Do you take the time to tell people the impact they have on your life?
Appreciate someone today! Even if it is yourself! Lol
