Be
the Voice
Whether you are running a race,
developing a new product, building a bridge or guiding a child’s life, this is
an axiom I believe in.
John Maxwell and Les Parrot said
it in their book 25 Ways to Win with
People.
People
will go farther than they thought they could
when
someone they respect tells them they can.
This is an example of encouragement
at its finest. Just imagine what the
successful outcome might look like if we consistently whisper those magic words
that can make a difference. The words
are … You can do it.
Say it to …
-People running a race
-A team wrestling with a product
development issue
-A teen struggling with identity
-A Mom juggling a myriad of family
responsibilities
-A frustrated athlete facing the
starting line in a critical race
…And a few thousand other
situations…
The right word at the right time
can make all the difference in the world.
Can you be that encouraging voice
to someone today? I imagine someone near
you needs a dose of “you can do it” and they need it sooner rather than
later.
Do it.
Be the voice.
Be the source.
Be the encouragement agent.
