The mission statement for Zaxby's is one that carries over to more than the back of house and front of house, and as such it bears a closer look for me today.
"Consistently Create Encore Experiences That Enrich Lives One Person At A Time"
Every once in a while we get to participate in the BIG events in life. You know those things that make a huge difference in one swoop. Oh, they don't come often, and for some of us, those BIG events just elude us completely. "ENCORE" is a huge undertaking if we really grasp its full meaning. We are asked to create this enormous task and do it consistently?
In over 30 years of ministry, I have always been overwhelmed with the responsibility of trying to enrich lives, create life altering experiences for people, and make a real difference. It is and has been an exhausting task to say the least.
Today, I share a few nuggets with you that not only will enrich others, but we will also experience that "Encore Experience" if we put them into practice daily.
- It's the small events we create that make the real difference. (A sincere, encouraging word for example. Or maybe just being there for someone is all that is needed).
- Help the person who comes to do your job next. (It's the do unto others...teaching. Leave everything better than you found it).
- Swallow your pride! We're all on the same side.
- Attitude, Attitude, Attitude! It's contagious! (Both good and bad)
Blessings,
