Sevinj Abbasli: One person you lead might say, “Oh no, bad weather, how depressing.” Another person might say, “Oh boy, we have some wonderful refreshing rain!” Because the rain doesn’t make either person feel anything. (No person, place, or thing can make you feel anything.) It is the thought about the rain that causes the feelings. And throughout all your leadership adventures, you can teach your people this most important concept: The concept of thought. One person thinks (just thinks!) the rain is great. The other person thinks (but just thinks) the rain is depressing. Nothing in the world has any meaning until we give it meaning. Nothing in the workplace does either. Your people often look to you for meaning. What does this new directive really mean?
