00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.552
Anyone can create
person-to-person connections,

00:00:02.562 --> 00:00:08.297
absolutely. It's just looking at people
as human beings instead of numbers,

00:00:08.307 --> 00:00:11.661
and thinking about
every person has a story.

00:00:11.671 --> 00:00:15.326
You know, I left a thought in
my voicemail not long ago that

00:00:15.336 --> 00:00:18.277
if we took the time to
hear everybody's story,

00:00:18.287 --> 00:00:20.916
there probably wouldn't
be anybody we didn't like.

00:00:21.419 --> 00:00:24.587
So we all have stories,
and if we think about

00:00:24.597 --> 00:00:26.868
the person that we're connecting with

00:00:26.878 --> 00:00:31.398
in some way as a human
being just like us, then

00:00:32.027 --> 00:00:34.991
it doesn't matter what your
job is. It doesn't matter,

00:00:35.001 --> 00:00:37.600
you know, how much change
is going on around you.

00:00:37.610 --> 00:00:41.035
It doesn't matter what your boss
is doing, your co-workers are doing.

00:00:41.045 --> 00:00:45.117
You can make that connection
in every interaction that you have.

00:00:45.127 --> 00:00:48.566
And there's a wonderful
quotation that says every time we

00:00:48.576 --> 00:00:51.035
have an interaction with another person,

00:00:51.045 --> 00:00:55.362
it leaves both us and that other
person on a higher or a lower plane.

00:00:55.739 --> 00:00:57.946
And so it's your choice.

00:00:57.956 --> 00:01:01.243
You know, aren't there people in your
life that when you're around them,

00:01:01.253 --> 00:01:04.135
they just suck the
energy right out of you?

00:01:04.424 --> 00:01:08.158
And then others that make
you feel like a million dollars?

00:01:08.168 --> 00:01:10.122
And which one do you wanna be?

00:01:10.658 --> 00:01:13.800
So that's the choice that
is out there for everyone.
