JC will share stories about powerful community creation and his concept on the Outward Facing Clique.
Every Tuesday, as you know, we spend time talking about relationships. Later on today you'll see Doctor Leslie who does a lot of social worker talks. After that you'll have girls mentorship, Jill and Mary talking about our opportunity as influencers and impactors on the next generations. Happy Tuesday.
Every Tuesday, JC talks about the outward facing click. The idea of the click is to shift the system. The more that we are a part of something, the less it becomes about us. It becomes about the people who have yet to partake.
Today I want you to think about the one on the outside. What power do you have as the outsider or the beginner, or the fresh face? Those who know the least innately have the opportunity to ask the most. Your perspective from the outside is exactly what I need right now.
Well, hey there Cadre. Happy Tuesday. Happy building. Community day here at Cadre. Every Tuesday, as you know, we spend time talking about relationships. Later on today you'll see Doctor Leslie who does a lot of social worker talks, talks a lot about one on one relationships. After that you'll have girls mentorship, Jill and Mary talking about our opportunity as influencers and impactors on the next generations, on how we impact that. But right now, my name's JC. If we've never shared time and space together before, thanks for the opportunity to do so.
And every Tuesday I talk about the outward facing click. You know, I'm one of the individuals who when people go, you know what, JC, you know what you are? You're a connector. I always love that word. I love that people see that in me, that I have at minimum the interest, but hopefully at various times the capacity to connect people to ideas, to connect people to interests and opportunities. Most importantly, to connect people to one another. The idea of the outward facing click is to shift the system.
Look at the things that maybe start out as a really good idea and all of a sudden they grow and they grow and they kind of lose, they lose the steam, they lose their progression, they lose the opportunity to become what they could be because maybe they focus on becoming what they think they need to be. The idea of the outward facing click invites us to go. The more that we are a part of something, the less it becomes about us and the more it becomes about the people who have yet to partake. So today I want you to often we think about us as the in and being the outward facing click.
But today I want you to think about the one on the outside. Let's say you're the new person walking into an organization or the new person walking into a social group. Maybe you're picking up a new talent, maybe you're joining a new board, maybe you're attending a new yoga class or going to a new community group. Maybe you've moved into a new neighborhood. What power do you have as the outsider or the beginner, or the fresh face? The thing I invite you to consider today is whenever you are on the outside looking in, you have the opportunity to ask not only the best, but the most questions.
Those who know the least innately have the opportunity to ask the most. You know, I spend a lot of my life in the role of consultant. In other words, I'm the outsider brought to the inside to look at things differently, to be a masterful question asker. Often we soften that by going, alright, I may be stupid here, but it seems to me to fill in the statement or fill in the question and all of a sudden, the people who are sitting in the belly of the beast, the people who've already made themselves at home, they go, huh?
Wow. We hadn't looked at it that way, or we haven't thought of that, or we haven't thought of that in a long time. So as little passing thoughts today, we're often building community day is us looking at us from the inside. Consider a space where maybe you're on the outside and the power you have to go, you know what? I know I missed that meeting last week, but can someone catch me up? Because it seems like, or maybe I'm the only one who doesn't know, but. And all of a sudden, everyone who is already in that click starts to look over their shoulder towards the outside, towards you, and they start going, wow.
Maybe the answer, maybe the light, maybe the future is not facing inward, but I'm turning around and looking outside of what we've created to consider where we go next. Have a great rest of your Tuesday, everybody. Again. Doctor Leslie, Jill and Mary, girls mentorship. I think I saw Luke going on later today as well. You will see me again on Saturday when we jump into personal development and then on Sunday when we take a little self care. But in the meantime, you can find pre recorded content from me.
I scrolled through it because it's been a little while since I've uploaded some new prerecorded content, but go ahead and scroll through and see if there's anything that piques your interest. And always know I'm here to answer any questions here for any connection conversation because I spend a lot of time looking at the world that I seek to create. Your perspective from the outside is exactly what I need right now. Have a good one.
