Conducting Energy (Not Science!)

Do you energize other people?

In science, the property of conductivity relates to how a substance can transfer energy—heat or electricity. Some things conduct energy better than others.

But, what about as a trait of a person? What if there was some measure of how well one person can pass energy and enthusiasm to other?

Think about it! Do you know people who, by their very nature, make others want to do more? Want to be more? Want to live their lives better? What if we said these people are human conductors?

How about you! How does how you live affect others? Do you give energy? Do you lift people up?

Try to act in ways that help people do more, be more, live better!

Flexibility: A Key Part Of Success

It's very possible that you, if you do anything, have found a process that works. You get what you want from the process.

But if the circumstances change, what then? How can you get the outcome you want if everything you have come to expect changes?

In physical science, the characteristic of flexibility is the ability of a substance to bend without breaking. A wire can alter its shape to fit the available space and course of a conduit, for instance.

Developing flexibility as a person—as a manager, teacher, or anyone working in a situation were changes have to be made—is vital. It is very difficult to be successful if you cannot adapt to a changing environment.


When the circumstances change, your process might have to change, too. Flexibility is key to getting the expected outcomes from the process under different conditions.

Create Happiness

There are many, many people around us every day. Does it ever seem like everyone around you is unhappy? That they are discontent about everything?

People respond to their perception of the environment with various degrees of being happy and unhappy. Everyone is different, and reacts differently to what's going on.

However, if you are part of the environment, then you can play a part in their state of mind. How you live affects others. You can live in a way that changes the environment. Changes how people perceive the things going on around them.

If you want to be around happy people, create the environment wherein being happy is a possibility!

Cognitive Malleability - A vital skill in an ever-changing world

Malleability is a physical property related to how a substance changes due to pressure. Cognitive malleability is the capacity to change how you think about things, how you might operate, when facing external pressures of the world.

Being able to change how you think is a huge asset in a world where things are constantly changing. The every-shifting demands of the world must be dealt with by using different ways of thinking.

Being un-malleable in thinking results in being unable to respond when circumstances demand it.

When the pressure rises, do you bend or break?

Adaptability

Adaptability is a trait that allows a singer thing to operate effectively in multiple situations.  Being addable means that something that works in one situation can ALSO work in other situations.

Everyone is foamier with different adapters for cords and things like that. If the charging cable doesn't fit, perhaps there is an adapter!

Adaptability is also a great trait for people.

An adaptable person can apply the skills and techniques that work in one situation in a different situation. Being adaptable is a trait that will help you become successful in a lot of different situations.

Adapt what works to places where it needs to work!
