Today, more than ever, there is a lot of negativity going around. It’s difficult to muster the courage and energy to do even the most basic of things. Here are three things you can do to stay Front-Row Positive (even when other people are determined to be balcony negative):
I hope you’ve been watching the Olympics, not just for the exciting completion and national pride rooting for their own athletes, but for the stories of redemption. Nathan Chen literally fell short of his his performance 4 years ago, and almost made up for it in his long program but only managed to finish 5th.
Do you remember being 7 years old? I know for a fact I wasn’t as responsible as the hero in today’s Front-Row Friday video.
We’ve all heard the phrase “practice what you preach” or “walk the talk”. Recently, I was reminded that it’s easier said than done (there’s another phrase that we’ve all heard!).
Have you ever been disappointed by someone not meeting your expectations? It happens all the time. I encourage you to minimize your disappointment by spending a little more time upfront with clarifying your expectations to begin with
Do you have a mentor? The path to your front-row can be an easier journey if you have a mentor who is illuminating the path for you. You know, like an usher! I’ve had a mentor ever since I saw my very first motivational speaker when I was 17, Roger Crawford.
Do you have a theme of the year? Or, maybe a word of the year? Mine is USHER…not after the singer, but after the person who has a flashlight at a theater or Las Vegas show.
This is the perfect time for setting your goals and your intentions for 2022.
Conflict and confrontation is no fun. It’s inevitable…but it’s no fun. For today’s front-row Friday video message, I suggest a couple of conversation hacks to help you stay calm and credible if you are being confronted or if you have to confront someone else on a conflict situation. If you are being confronted, you may be caught off guard.
Being Front-Row Positive every day isn’t always easy. It’s tempting to fall into the comparison trap and come up feeling less than.
