I decided last Friday to smile all day, which included smiling when I was on the phone and greeting clients and patients coming in.
Now, to be honest being Friday was an incentive to smile more, but I actually felt I made a difference that day. As a receptionist in a busy Veterinary Hospital we are the first to interact with our clients. The one’s that set the mood, the feel of our hospital. I am always polite and cheerful, but last Friday I was rocking it. I felt not only good about myself, but good about everyone around me, it’s contagious.
I had a spring in my step, if I could have I would have danced to the music playing on the radio, and maybe I will tomorrow. I also thought of the sad people, the angry people and felt sorry for them, I thought to myself, I hope they can smile soon and feel better.
I had also spent a good part of my day researching blogging, and I know that added more excitement to my day. I am so looking forward to getting this set up, and myself and Hayley for sure will be writing our hearts out.
Our hospital can be an emotional roller coaster at times, and I am going to make an extra effort to stay upbeat and smile. I know it will help me, and I hope it will help my colleagues and our clients. Being sincere is important, and I can truly say that I am. When I smile at you or laugh with you, I mean it!
This world is sad enough, let’s all make it better by smiling, it will change how you look at things.
I am smiling now, as I just wrote my first blog, and I do believe I rocked it!
