On Ideas

One of my favorite things to do on my free time is thinking of ideas. I just go off and bring in ideas that may be ridiculous but occasionally, I get the ones that work. For example, The Do Good Campaign for my office may be one of the best ideas I execute this summer. Another idea I thought of tonight was the REMARKABLE room. My office will have one extra room that I have previously thought of as a lounge area. A place to hang out. But this is so much cooler! The room will be for REMARKABLE. The best part is: this room is in the MIDDLE of my office! It drives who I am and what I preach! Be Weird! I cannot wait to see all the weird things on the walls in this room! Whatever fills it, will fill it to be remarkable. I want people to leave my office knowing that we are different and we are the place to be!

The reason I share this with you is to promote ideas. Ideas steer our lives. Everything we do comes from the idea of doing it. I want to promote that you consciously think of ideas. Also, since many ideas come during fleeting moments of our lives, I recommend an ideas notepad that you carry with you at all times. You can write your ideas in as you go! (Or use your smart phone to take notes!)

Accept all ideas at first and believe them to be possible. All things that have been accomplished were once impossible.

On Lending A Hand

There is nothing more powerful than something as small as helping another person in some small way. Little things really add up to big things and people forget this in their every day lives. There are so many opportunities to help other people every day and don't forget it! Keep an eye out every day and if an opportunity presents itself just lend a hand! It is so simple. Just give somebody else a small piece of your time!

The Do Good Campaign

I will be starting something with my office called the "Do Good Campaign" where every Sunday we go out and give back to the community somehow. I love giving! I think everybody should do some giving every week not only to help others, but also to help your own wellbeing! It feels great to give. You don't need to change the world. Just at least go out of your way to do something for one person. Daily is ideal, but baby steps are awesome so start off weekly if you don't give often.

A few basic ways to give:
-Thank your friends and family
-Hold the door for somebody who may be at an uncomfortable distance
-Greet people who do every day service tasks. i.e. bus driver, janitor, etc.
-Pick up trash and throw it out

Happy givings!
