We Need The Energy Now More Than Ever

Having recently gone through rounds of interviews at a few different companies, it became insanely clear who was bringing the energy to the table and who was hoping they’d find it there. (I joined the one who had the energy, of course.)

Having recently visited a handful of small retailers and food & bev providers (I’m writing this from a hotel room in Door County), it has become ridiculously clear who has the kind of energy that makes you just know they will still be in business next year… and those who have the energy of the people you just know won’t be.

Every storefront, every meeting, every interaction can be boiled down to the energy levels of the people involved. For the sake of this post, let’s just assume you’re bringing your positivity, A-game, excitement and courageous energy.

That, then, leaves everyone else and it also leaves you with two choices: either you try for a bit to share some of your energy in hopes of sparking it in others or… you find somewhere else that either matches or exceeds your energy levels.

Now more than ever, people are defaulting to finding somewhere else to take a job, somewhere else to spend their money, somewhere else with not just better service, but better energy.

It might be worth sharing this post so those who don’t have your energy level realize what’s at stake.

Stay Positive & A Smile Still Goes A Long Way
