This time of the year brings uncertainty for many 18 year
olds (and their parents too). As a
parent of a graduating high school senior, I have a plethora of emotions going
through my mind. Although I am excited
and can’t wait for my senior to enter the next chapter of his life as he
attends a school in what seems like another continent, 1633.8 miles away to be
exact; I run through a virtual checklist in my mind to make sure I have
prepared him for anything that can happen while he embarks on this new
adventure.
My thoughts drift back to when he still wanted to hold my
hand crossing the street. I was once his
super hero that could protect him from anything. There was a time when he would hang on my
every word listening intently to my advice, stories and even laugh at my
jokes. It was an honor to get to coach
him in sports at an early age, celebrate his victories and console him during
his defeats. Memories of watching him
overcome obstacles and achieving success will last a lifetime and hopefully a
few lessons will resonate with him as he encounters new challenges in this
world.
Life is pretty simple if you slow down enough to take
measure. Most people in this world are
good, but there are some that want to do you harm. Understanding that you can vastly improve
your odds of safety by avoiding hazardous situations and networking with those
who are achieving success can lead you to greatness. Realizing that every challenge presents an
opportunity to allow you to change course gaining valuable experience to
prepare you for the next trial that will arise will be vital to your
growth. Being transparent with others
allows your true character to be exposed, but also allows you to see the true
character of others. You will not be
able to please everyone, but you will be able to take solace if you think of
others before yourself. When you do
something, do it with passion or don’t waste your time doing it. Take time to celebrate the little wins and
have fun while archiving the things that keep you from accomplishing your goals
avoiding those things in the future.
Business is no different than life and with social media
your entire operation is online for the world to see. As business around the United States are
dealing with the fallout from the coronavirus outbreak and stories of racial
inequality; now is the time to get back to the basics. Many of the lessons I have tried to teach my
son are applicable to business as well.
Having a strong digital platform and the ability to
implement a marketing and advertising strategy will allow your potential
customers make an easy decision to solicit your services or products. With more people than ever enamored with
information instantaneously available at their fingertips; it is vital to share
your message utilizing today’s technology, but also provide an opportunity for
your customers to tell others about how great their experience with your
company was.
