| 0:28.6 | How's it going everybody? Today I got kind of a fun exercise that I've been doing with my |
| 0:33.9 | employees a lot just to kind of understand where they're thinking is that and they they can kind of understand where mine is, and that is, what's your spirit animal? My name is Henry G. This is the Positive Mindset Podcast, where I use positivity to build a better mindset. So what I mean about that? I'm not talking about going on Facebook and, you know, filling out a questionnaire to see what your spirit animal is or, you know, legitimately figuring out whatever it is. I'm just talking about for fun. If you could pick what animal you |
| 0:58.3 | would be, you know, and why. So for me, I pick a wolf. And the few reasons, you know, in my mind, |
| 1:06.2 | when I originally was asked the question, I started thinking, okay, what would I be? And I initially |
| 1:10.0 | thought a lion. But the truth be told, I'm thinking, okay, what would it be? And I initially thought a lion. |
| 1:11.6 | But the truth was told, I'm not really a lion. When you start thinking of the characteristics |
| 1:16.5 | of a lion, it just didn't really fit in with how I operate. I like the idea of a wolf because I |
| 1:21.8 | like working together. But you can be a lone wolf from time to time when you need to. You have a pack. |
| 1:28.3 | You're strong with your pack. |
| 1:30.3 | And you know, you kind of do everything as a team. |
| 1:32.3 | You can communicate. |
| 1:33.3 | And, you know, I just love doing things with people. |
| 1:36.3 | I love collaborating and working with others and using their strengths and my strengths to really develop something. |
| 1:41.3 | And so I started asking, you know, people where, you know, what, what they, spirit animal there was. And it didn't really matter me what they said. I just would ask them. And then why. So, you know, I told you my why. I like being the wolf because I like to, you know, teamwork. I like, you know, that we hunt. You know, I do, I have a sales background. That's kind of my skill set, I guess, coming from sales. And that's kind of what I lean on if I ever needed to. Like if I, everything went bad and I had to just use my one talent to make a living, I could just go right back into sales. And, you know, that's kind of like a hunter mentality. And I building sales teams things like that and using everybody's |
| 2:17.9 | strength stuff you know that's how I explained it to them and then asked them you know what spirit |
| 2:22.1 | animal they would be or you know what animal guide or whatever they would choose and it's such an |
| 2:27.0 | interesting concept of of what they say and then why because you'll you'll know somebody like |
| 2:33.5 | if it's somebody you work with, like one of my |
| 2:35.4 | employees, I know what they're about, what they, you know, their actions, because actions definitely speak louder than words. And so some of them would tell me an animal and I'd say, okay, well, why? I got one guy say bull and I said, okay, well, why? And then they kind of explained it. I'm like, okay, in my mind, I'm thinking, but you don't act anything like that. So I'm starting to wonder, okay, is that how you see yourself or is that how you want to see yourself? And it's just a cool way to understand, you know, where your mind's at. So try that exercise with yourself. Think about, okay, what spirit animal would I be? And then think about that animal. So don't just say |
