Play Nice!
My high school Geometry teacher was known for saying, "Play nice in the sandbox or you'll get your pail and shovel taken away." We all loved Mr. Gnan's sense of humor, and we would laugh and smile at each other every time he said it. But it's TRUE!
My message to you today is – Play Nice! In your family, with your spouse, with your kids, with your coworkers, with your neighbors, and with your business associates in PlanNet Marketing or any business…play nice. Don't be rude or mean-spirited. Don't try to take someone's shovel or rake. If you're trying to build a castle and your friend just had a tower knocked over – ask if you can help them out.
I know this isn't kindergarten and we aren't really playing in the sand, but the way we live our lives is the way we run our business. We want PlanNet Marketing to be known for the upstanding way our Reps do business. If someone isn't playing nice with you – show kindness anyway. If someone is speaking to you with rudeness or disrespect – be professional anyway.
We may not all work in a "brick and mortar" building, but in our “click and order” culture, we can be quick to dismiss others instead of trying to be there for each other. Don't forget that all PlanNet Reps are on the same team – we're all in this together. It is okay to disagree sometimes. It is okay to run your business differently than others run theirs. It is okay not to see eye-to-eye on every subject. We can still choose to work arm-in-arm with one another.
Play fair, be nice, help others. You will always come out on top in the end.
