I
have a question for the ladies.
What would you think if you saw a guy walking around Wal-Mart wearing this?
I’m guessing you would think he
is nuts for walking out of this apartment without his pants on. So, why the
heck are you ladies leaving the house without your pants on? I ask this because
yesterday I saw 2 young ladies at Michael’s who forgot their pants.

As some of you prepare
to head out into the workforce and other head to a summer internship I want to
share the FISH Philosophy.
The FISH! Philosophy includes four
simple, interconnected practices:
Be There: When people need
you, they need all of you. Setting aside distractions and judgments to be fully
present is a sign of respect. It improves communication and strengthens
relationships.
Play: You can be serious about your work
without taking yourself so seriously. Play is a mindset more than a specific
activity. It allows you to throw yourself with enthusiasm and creativity into
whatever you are doing, in a way that is natural, not forced. "Playing”
with ideas helps you find solutions to everyday challenges.
Make Their Day: Simple gestures of
thoughtfulness, thanks and recognition make people feel appreciated and valued.
When you make someone else feel good, you feel good too.
Choose Your Attitude: To actually choose
how you respond to life, not just react, you must be intentional. When you get
up, decide who you want to "be" today. Moment-to-moment awareness is
key. Ask yourself throughout the day, "What is my attitude right now? Is
it helping the people who depend on me? Is it helping me to be most
effective?"
Through The FISH! Philosophy, we build
stronger relationships with the team members we work with, the customers we
serve, the students we teach and the people we love.
I have chosen to
make the FISH Philosophy my approach to my life and my work. You will choose
your philosophy one day soon, choose wisely.
