Probably those words you love saying would make a good song.

Sing it!

Perhaps your employees, your boss or your clients would respond better to a joke.

Have a go.

Yes.

Today is further along the Gregorian calendar than some thought they would ever get.

That’s good.

Every time we exceed a target, or find that there is something more we can do, it feels good.

But progress includes keeping the boat facing the right winds, sitting for longer, taking less time, more time or no time.

There are so many ways we can feel an exclamation mark of joy is part of any day.

It’s interesting how unlikely it is to be able to predict what someone really is, and who they really are…what they are all about, when you first meet them.

You can get an impression. A first impression, or rather a “gut feeling” that may be correct. But does the clerk go hang-gliding, the cleaner climb mountains, the engineer play harpsichord?

So many gems to discover.

What a delight!

It’s a dance.

Sometimes it is best to persist, insist and win.

At other times, calmly walking away and looking elsewhere, a new, fresh choice is far better.

The dance is the process of deciding which of the two applies on any particular occasion.

Sounds, tough – but it is in fact fun. Have fun with it and it will be as smooth as an accomplished ballet sequence.

When live music is played outdoors doe the weather change?

When someone smiles at a stranger does does peanut butter taste better?

Are you sure?

Will this be the question you remember to ask them?
