Message from Mary Poppins
WELCOME TO THIS MAGIC MONDAY MOMENT
Kicking off your week with some thoughts around a favorite Disney quote (because in my world - Disney is life!).
original message date: 08/12/24
Happy Monday!
Maintaining a positive outlook and keeping our energy up when facing challenges or doing the tasks we really don’t like can be tough.
And I’m certainly not one who believes that you should always toss sunshine and rainbows on every situation.
But I am a fan of this advice from my favorite nanny, Mary Poppins:
It really is all about perspective (and maybe adding a good booty-shaking 80’s tune). By consciously choosing to find the fun, we can shift our perspective, making the situation not just bearable but enjoyable!
As a bonus, we not only improve our experience but also elevate the experiences of those around us. If you are in a leadership role – this is crucial for motivating and inspiring others. After all – you have a pretty big hand in setting the tone for the environment.
This doesn't mean that every job will be easy or always enjoyable (I’ll never find cleaning our cat’s litter box fun). Instead, it's about adopting a mindset AND finding ways to make it not-so-bad.
Maybe it’s music. Maybe it’s mini challenges. Maybe it’s having a reward. Maybe it’s a spoonful of sugar (from the song…get it???)
Always it’s mindset.
So get out there and have some fun!
How can you add an element of fun to your challenging or mundane tasks this week?
Wishing you a wonderful week. You've got this!
