Imitate the animals

Combining boundless joy, unconfined enthusiasm and sheer joie de vivre seems to be a full time occupation for my two Labradors as I watch them race away on their morning run. If some of my clients could only harness a fraction of that energy and go-for-it mentality in their businesses they would be a lot further ahead than they are now.

That’s true not only of my select clients, but of business in general.

And such cheerful exuberance about life in general and business in particular is infectious.

What if you greeted each day in this way?

What if you greeted each client this way?

And if you think your particular business, or your particular situation, is too serious to be viewed in this way – what are you saying? That your heart is not in it? That it no longer fires you up each morning? That prospects no longer engage you and clients are no longer like respected friends?

Then what are you doing here?

Live a lot – live like a Labrador.
