In my last post I wrote about some insights I had discovered. Some of them have been acquired through personal life experiences. Others where taught to me by my parents and grandparents. All of them kind were kind of joined together when I began to read the book by Matthew McConaughey. Green Lights.
Today was, (to coin his frase) a green light day. I may have not pleased everyone with the work I did today but being in the service industry tips are a good indicator of the quality your work or at least your attitude that is coming across. We were slow at work today and I still did well in tips!
I know every day will not be like this one. However, it has made me take notice that having a passion to make make my customers experience the best possible experience that I can provide, will pay off. If not in cash, then in the knowledge that I did everything in my power to provide the experience they were seeking.
How did I do this? Sounds maybe a bit mainstream; but its my is my morning and evening routine! As a person with ADHD, a routine is often the biggest struggle in my life. However when I accomplish my routines, I have already gotten a release of dopamine from the feeling of being successful before I have even arrived at work!
Now this portion has been the tricky part for me. How do I please my customers without trying to make them like me? By doing the I job I know how to do to the best of my abilities anyways and not caring if my personality is too much along with the knowledge that this experience is all about how I can help my client in this moment. Lighting bolts went off in my head. It is a life altering realization for me. Hopefully this can help you as well. We’re all in this thing called life together. Hence, we’re all in some type service capacity.
