3 Things About the Best Day of Your Life That Can be Applied to Everyday

0 Comments
Wedding season is in full swing! I went to two weddings in the last week and they were both beautiful! And, ironically I am celebrating an anniversary of sorts this week too because this blog was started a year ago. That means there are lots of reasons to celebrate!
  1. Don't make promises you can't keep
    • Marriage is a life-long commitment to someone else and of course you want to promise them the best future they could ever have. You can't possibly foresee the challenges and changes that you will go through so I felt very encouraged to see such honesty in the vows at the weddings. In business you need to also be honest such as when you are telling a customer of whether their requests will be fulfilled in an upcoming product release. If you can't see that far into the future, don't try to guess and instead simply promise to continue to communicate!
  2. Make new friends, but keep the old
    • This is good, solid advice from a girl scout song. Weddings are filled with old high school friends to reminisce with and new friends you see every day at work or the gym. The advice here is to not take either of them for granted! This means stay in touch and ask about their lives. It equally means expanding your network so you can have a breadth of connections to rely on in any future situation.
  3. A reason's a reason, no matter how small
    • One of my favorite things at weddings is the dance to celebrate all married couples. It is heart warming to see the ones that have been together for 20, 30 or even 50+ years. It gives you hope that you can make it too. I think everyone should celebrate the small and big wins on a business project, company culture change, or personal relationship. Whether the milestone is only a month or a 5-year plan, any reason is reason enough to celebrate and it will keep you motivated to get to the next one.
Congratulations to the happy newlyweds!
