We went to the park yesterday and saw this momma and her little ducklings. We observed them for some time. My two year old loves ducks, but especially the ducklings.
At one point, the momma duck led her babies out of the water and onto dry land. It was here that we witnessed her literally flip one of the ducklings over with her foot and then promptly step on said duckling 😳 and then, she kept walking as if it were just a regular occurrence 🤣 the duckling also got up and dusted itself off and kept on moving as if this weren't the first time it happened 🤦🏼♀️
We, as parents are expected to lead our children and not step on their interests, development, or emotions. How many times have you felt stepped on in a place of work, though? I know it has happened to me several times. My ultimate goal is to be a better leader, not only in my house, but in my community and place of work.
So how do we do this? It starts with your internal dialog. When we start with positive affirmations of ourselves, we can pour that same positive energy out into each aspect of our lives! Speak love and encouragement to not only ourselves, but also into our kids, our employees, and our coworkers. I guarantee that if you start with your own internal dialog, you will see a big change in your home and your place of work.
