“Don’t adapt to the energy in the room,
𝑰𝒏𝒇𝒍𝒖𝒆𝒏𝒄𝒆 the energy in the room” -Unknown
I want to talk about something that has truly transformed the way I navigate through life: the idea of not merely adapting to the energy in a room but taking charge and influencing it. Looking at the glass half full versus half empty. 😉
In a world that often teaches us to conform, blend in, match people’s actions, stay silent, avoid hard communication, just nod at the gossip table versus speaking up 🫣- be different! There’s a certain magic in being the catalyst for change.
Whether you’re aware of it or not, you’re influencing the energy around you all the time. Your mood, your words, your actions – they all contribute to the collective vibe of a space. The real magic happens when you consciously choose to be a positive force, a beacon of light, a source of inspiration and empowerment. When you choose to focus on the good qualities of someone versus highlighting their flaws- because we all have them 😜 💫
It’s not about being a people-pleaser or sacrificing your authenticity to fit in. It is about controlling the flow of the ripple effect. Why not choose to be the ripple that uplifts, that brings joy, that ignites creativity, and that encourages others to be their best selves? That bridges broken friendships or misunderstandings vs pouring gasoline on that flame. It’s a conscious decision to lead with kindness, love, and authenticity.
Influence isn’t about control; it’s about inspiring and empowering. It’s about setting the tone for positivity and growth. When you lead with your own unique energy, you become a source of light in a world that tries to be filled with darkness.
Let’s not just adapt to the energy in the room; let’s influence it positively.
