"Why Do Some People NOT Take Initiative? They have a FEAR of . . . rejection, looking stupid, failing, criticism, getting out of their comfort zone, or imposing on other people. They are unmotivated or uninspired. They get stuck in negativity, confusion, stress, or doubt. They don't want to upset the apple cart or the status quo. They are lazy, disengaged, or indifferent. They have LACK of . . . energy, desire, confidence, self-esteem, skills, creativity, imagination, connections, resources, education."

"Initiative and starting are about neither of these. They are about "let's see" and "try". If there's no clear right answer, perhaps the thing you ought to do is something new. Something new is often the right path when the world is complicated."

"Put the right people in the right positions to ensure their personal strengths and talents are being utilized and appreciated."
Talent
"Living in integrity with one's principles that are held in high regard engenders respect-both from others and self."
Values
"Fear is the number one reason why people do not take action. The divine irony is that most of the fears we experience are self-generated and born out of our own imaginings, hence the acronym False Evidence Appearing Real."
Mindset
"How can you stand apart from the herd? How can you start to be noticed so people will remember you? How can you be heard above the noise? "What is your personal branding that makes you special, unique, individual, and memorable?"
Identity
"We prefer to be around others who bring out the best in us and make us feel good, don't we? Customers want to do business with people who make them feel valued, appreciated, and happy."
Business
"Your eyes are the windows to your soul indeed. It is a clichA© for a good reason-it is a timeless truth with universal application."
Insight
"Finding the good in others is mutually rewarding for both you and the fortunate recipient of your kind words. Don't you love being around people who make you feel great about yourself? Don't you want to do business with people who make you feel valued and important? Wouldn't you rather work with people who appreciate and respect you? Of course you would! Now go out and do that for others! When you become a generous good-finder you will infuse positive energy, optimism, and good will into their lives, as well as your own."
Generosity
"Navigating relationships within our own culture can be challenging enough. When diverse cultures are involved, however, a huge potential for misunderstanding, disrespect, miscommunication, and intolerance is present."
Diversity
"A genuine smile is your best fashion accessory and the most important thing you can wear."
Positivity
"You can certainly take the easy road and use the predictable and boring defaults like: How are you doing? How about this weather? What do you do for a living? Hi. My name is _________. What's yours? Blah, blah, blah, blah . . .Break out of the defaults you have been using for years. Shake it up. Make it fun. Make it memorable. Dive in with more engagement and interaction. Taking the initiative to be more creative will help you build a bridge to close the gap."
