Your smile is your logo, your personality is your business card, how you leave others feeling after having an experience with you becomes your trademark.
- Jay Danzie
When I received the above quote in a daily inspirational email, the words and their meaning left a huge impression on me. It got me to thinking about the people whose paths I cross or who cross mine as I move through each day. I have never found it difficult to smile at a stranger so I am miffed when people I encounter on a daily basis walk past me and others as if we do not exist, can come into a room and not speak or say good morning. It’s hard for me to understand how someone can so miserably fail at a simple common courtesy while at the same time asking for support. I guess we just don’t always realize how what we say and do is received by others so caught up in self and our own agendas are we.
Each time I read this quote it serves as a reminder that sometimes the first impression, be it bad or good does not necessarily hold over time, that every time we see or talk to a person even if it’s for the hundredth time, we make a new impression. So as I close, the words conscious consistency resonates within me. It’s a concept, may we all begin to practice it and as you do…
keep your peepers open!®
