Company We Keep

One of the coaches in my ORSC residential session this past weekend, Jennifer Davis, mentioned in a very casual way that—you are the company your keep around you. It inspired me to think about WHO I want to keep around me.

Hey everyone! Look around. Who’s in your professional life? Who’s in your personal life? Who do you engage, listen to, model?

In those relationships, are you being—

  • Respected

  • Valued

  • Praised

  • Appreciated

  • Mentored

  • Coached

  • Nurtured

  • Challenged

  • Held safe

  • Balanced

  • Uplifted

  • Honored

  • Trusted

  • Dare I say it, loved?

Do you have people in your life who will always have your back? Have your best interest at heart? Will tell you the truth when you need it? No matter what, stay true to you?

If not, perhaps consider changing the company you keep.

Stay agile my friends,

Bob.
