Leadership Tip
A Note on Passion
Having spent the weekend at Jazz Fest,
I came away with two thoughts on age:
-
It is a state of mind
-
Being passionate about what you do
keeps you young
Many of the performers were over 70,
with one trumpeter leading the way at 94.
These people clearly loved what they did!
From their energy to the way they
sang and danced, their passion was palpable.
Audience members were quick
to jump to their feet and dance along.
Everyone was clearly enjoying themselves.
It was contagious.
People get engaged because you are.
They take their cue from your
energy and enthusiasm.
Being passionate about what you do
not only keeps you young, it inspires others.
It sustains time.
On that note all ages can agree.
