Using your imagination – learning to adapt to circumstances at hand and taking good advice from someone you trust – that’s following a Beyond Common lifestyle.

I never have a problem helping others look at their choices and helping them decide to make better ones, because more often than not, they don’t even know why they made the bad choice in the first place!

Remember, self care is crucial to your Beyond Common existence. Take care of you and you will have the ability to care for those around you.

Think about this and the next time you are confronted with a circumstance that requires special attention, try a heartfelt gesture instead of kind platitudes.

No one knows what another person is really going through – but creating a memorable act of compassion by being present is worth its weight in gold and is definitely a Beyond Common act.

When you begin to apply Beyond Common systems and principles you discover your own personal talents and goals. It’s time to clear your head of clutter, clear your mind of intricately spun webs and carefully decide on what is important and what really works for you.

A happy team is a strong and confident team – a group of individuals that look out for one another – that picks up and lifts up and rises up to all occasions – a team that is Beyond Common.

Two great questions I ask myself all the time are what did you love? And what did you learn? I ask this of myself all the time. I ask this question of my leadership team at the salon. I ask this every month of every single team member when I’m doing professional development meetings for each team member. I ask this question of my children who are currently 6 and 9 years old, but I have been asking this question of both of them since they were under three years old. It is absolutely adorable the things they come up with. Then other times they share a struggle they had in their day but they focus on what they learned. Sometimes I wonder if I would ever even know those interesting details about their day. If I didn’t ask the right questions.

So we did this really cool thing the other day for our Salon team retreat. Which reminds me — do you have team retreats? If you have them regularly then you know exactly what I’m talking about and I know we’re gonna have so much fun comparing information about all the fun we have at our salon company team retreats. If you have not had them but you have been thinking about having them, stay tuned. If you’ve ever thought about it all this will get you so excited that you will want to have a company team retreat ASAP.
