How would you feel if your life was broadcast on big screens everywhere for the entire world to see? Would you be proud of what people would be viewing? Find out where this question came from and how it led us back to being in integrity, both in public and behind closed doors.
Mary and Jill: Are you the person you are crowdfacing? Is that person the same behind closed doors? Be better 1% every single day. Just look at what you're already doing and do it better.
Hey, Cadre fam. Hello, Cadre. It's Mary and Jill here, your resident hype girls, as well as your social, emotional learning experts. And the other day, we were recording a podcast when a very interesting question was posed with our guest. The question, or the concept, was around your life being broadcast on movie screens across America and whether or not you would be proud of what people were viewing. Would you be proud of the parent that you are? Would you be proud of the spouse that you are? Would you be proud overall of the person that you are?
That was being broadcast on big screens all over the place. This stopped us in our tracks. We really thought to ourselves, wow, what a perspective shift. Because it's kind of like social media. The highlight reel is always projected, so you don't always get to see what happens behind closed doors, because you could be putting on a front. Right. And I think what our biggest takeaway from that question was was based around integrity. Are you the person you are crowdfacing? Is that person the same behind closed doors?
And that's not just to show face. That is to be who you say you are through and through and through. Because whether we like it or not, whether you're a parent or not, we are an example to someone else at any given point in time. So are you that person in front of people that you are behind closed doors? Would you be proud of that movie? That might feel overwhelming. But what we like to say and what we like to practice is the 1% get better everyday principle, right? Be better 1% every single day.
That can look like your communication skills, that can look like your nonverbal skills, that can look all sorts of different ways, whether you are a parent, whether you're not, whether you're a leader, whether you're just an employee. You can sharpen your character to show up better for yourself, but also for others. And honestly, it's not us asking you to add anything else to your plate. It's us asking you to do what you're already doing, but doing it better. So we'll leave you with that question.
Doesn't that feel good? Right? Just look at what you're already doing and do it better. And what is that? What is it that you are doing in a daily basis that you can add to and raise the bar for yourself on until next time? You guys.
