Do You Inspire?

I love reading books. One of the many I'm currently reading is Fire Them Up! 7 Simple Secrets to: Inspire Colleagues, Customers, and Clients * Sell Yourself, Your Vision, and Your Values * Communicate with Charisma and Confidence by Carmine Gallo.

I found the first couple of sentences in the introduction to be quite powerful as well as inspirational. They are as follows:

You have the power to inspire anyone, anywhere, anytime. You may not have a leadership
title, but you exert influence over someone every day. Whether you are a Fortune 500
chief executive or the head of a household, you are in the motivational business.
Regardless of your role, you play the part of chief inspiration officer for someone at
work, at home, or in your community.

I hope this inspires you take to that extra minute to answer a question for a new colleague,
tell your family members to have a great day before they leave for the day.

What are some the ways you inspire the people around you?

All the best,
Julie

Calling them up and wishing them a great day. Listening to 3 tasks they're going to do in the day.
