Genuine connections! We all want them. When we were born, we were held by loving hands, nurtured, and taken home.
Sometimes we feel we need to show up in a certain way in order to genuinely connect with others. In fact, we feel most connected to those who are living authentically.
This is the same for our businesses, organizations, and dreams. They are an expression of us, what we believe, and the gifts we bring to the community. Let that shine and see what comes back!
If you are having a tough time genuinely expressing the greatness, it's OK. We all have been trained from young to fly under the radar. It doesn't have to be this way too. To start, try a few of these...
🌱 Get clear on WHY you're in business, working in community, working for change or something bigger
🌱 Feel the WHY as though you're already doing it. It's completely alright to have hesitations. Big visions can come with big resistance.
🌱 Accept resistance as a guide of where you can grow and expand close to your truth. Are you resistant to doing promotions, take some time to feel this resistance and move forward from that place of WHY you're here.
🌱 Give what you want to receive. If you want to foster more genuine connections in the community or create deeper relationships with customers, do the things that build deeper connections - put yourself out there, embrace failure as a chance to learn, reach out for support, listen and try to understand what's being asked for.
Have you tried any of these? What results have you found? What other habits to you have to create genuine connections?
If you want to chat about connecting, we're always excited to talk and share ideas!
