When you focus on your superpowers, you inspire others to find theirs…
Pain point marketing can be so exhausting and if you know me, I do things differently. ?
With a passion to focus on the positive, I’m sharing a quick story to inspire you and hopefully lift others in the process.
Oh my, I am so blessed that every time, every time…did I say every time! that I step onto the Zoom stage and greet one of you in my network the first thing you say is they love my voice! I am grateful for this gift to use it as a guide to exchange content and create meaningful connections. It’s one of my superpowers and when I leaned into amplifying t I find my relationships are so much stronger. While written communications can be effective, the outcome we wish to achieve is an emotion or experience for which the voice carries it so much further.
In the process of meeting with so many of you live, via zoom or simply through my podcast I’m starting to realize the impact it’s having on everyone. When we meet, I always listen and try to find either your value and make you aware of it. I also try to impart some value, so you are in a better place because we spent some time together.
This week, I kicked off The Drop In Collective and I was inspired by the engaging conversation. I know I shared some insight with the attendees or I simply provided a space for them to feel good about who they are and are becoming.
It’s moments like that when we take the time to focus on the process, our values and our superpowers that good things will happen. Recently during a mastermind, a colleague said as soon as they let go of results and simply focus on what felt good or gives them joy, magic started to happen. It’s a hard shift in mindset, but being the optimist… I’m riding that wave right now! I’ll let you know how it’s working!
For you, I’d love for you to pause and ponder what are your superpowers? What are those things you do so easily that when you use them, people are uplifted? Shouldn’t we be focusing more on those strengths than trying to fix what you’re not? And if you are reaching down into the organization, do you have talent that is good, but could they be great? How can you encourage them to use their superpowers to amplify their impact? Are they a good trainer? An excellent organizer? Do they have good people skills and can be put in front of a customer?
Just think about it. My job here is to help you discover what you can do to have a greater impact directly or through elevating others. We are all part of this community to elevate the C-Suite Leaders of Today and Tomorrow Navigate Challenges with Confidence.
What’s your superpower? I’d love to know!
Be well and much success-Deb
