What Makes You Come Alive?

When you go to work, do you come alive? Most people don’t.

Is there some aspect of your work that makes you feel vibrant and happy? Most people do have some aspects of their work that makes them come alive. However, they are unaware of what it is because they see things but as Dr. Covey would say: they do not observe!

By observing what makes you come alive, you will do more of these tasks, therefore being more energetic and productive. If you have any leadership position, you will be able to help others in your team observe what makes excites them. This way they can focus on what they are best at doing, creating a productive and synergistic team.

It is never easy, however – there will be a stack of things that makes no one come alive and need to be dealt with. However, if you and your coworkers or employees are generally excited about what you are doing, you create a team, environment and company with a wonderful, creative atmosphere.  Those small, mundane details then just become part of the cycle of the larger vision.
I come alive when I get to speak to an excited audience, and when I get to write every day.
How about you?  What makes you come alive?
