It’s not just a rhetorical question.

The onus is on us to see the answer and if we can’t, to create one.

Those who you are targeting for your business don’t just fit into your target group.

They fit into a lot of groups.

And while staying true to your brand is sure to build loyalty; getting the attention of more of the right people may require you to reach out and into other target groups.

Nonprofit leaders in need of insurance for their organization are avid cribbage players.

There are a lot of binging Netflix watchers who are also Dungeons & Dragons fanatics.

The world might be big, but our communities are small.

The businesses that seek out the edges and the overlap are the ones that will succeed in finding, attracting and retaining a following.

Energy isn’t still and nor is culture, social norms or a conversation.

If you’re not moving forward, you’re moving backward.

Similarly, you can be adding value to a connection or decreasing the value.

Everything is in a constant state of change.

It’s on us to make sure it’s a positive one.

Problems don’t get solved from afar.

They don’t get solved alone.

They don’t get solved over night.

They don’t get solved without passion.

At least, this is all true for problems worth solving.

While what’s important is that you’re in front, next to or with people, you’re sending a very different signal with your posture.

If you’re in front of them, you’re serving them, you’re listening, you’re giving them your all.

If you’re next to them, you’re helping them serve, you’re listening for how you make their life easier, you’re giving them your all so they can give their all to others.

If you’re with them, you’re serving together, listening together, giving together.

All postures are important, but there’s a reason “we” is more powerful than “me.”

Having all three isn’t necessarily the recipe for success or proof of an accomplishment.

But it’s certainly rare to build something meaningful without at least one of them.

Momentum sounds like it comes natural.

If we just show up, momentum does, too.

But it’s not true. Momentum takes hard work.

Momentum without force behind it never gets easier.

Momentum without resistance leads to a snowball effect that will hurt your mission more than help it.

Build the momentum, but then know you will need to manage it; it’s not a self-maintained law.
