The biggest and best kept secret of life is… aliveness :)
Sure, there’s being alive, your heart beating and your body breathing, that’s no big secret. But aliveness, that’s about feeling connected to the essential realness of your life and the tingle of possibility in the world around you.
Feeling the sunshine. Listening to music. Being immersed in a fascinating read. Taking an intentional break. Feeling pain, grief or anger. Aliveness lives in all sides of being a living human being.
Choosing life, in all its shapes and iterations. Paying attention instead of going on autopilot.
Why is this important in the workplace?
It’s an underlying ingredient in how you interact with people. It’s in the space for fresh ideas or giving leeway when it’s needed, in letting an honest compliment bubble up or having an unexpected conversation over lunch. It’s choosing to be more than routine and check-the-box procedures.
In organisations, as a part of workplace culture, aliveness is where innovation and creativity grow, where healthy resilience and agility live. It draws people in. There is so much more that becomes possible when organisations value aliveness.
Create ways of stepping out of that hamster wheel of the day-to-day routine. It’s not so much about planning ahead as it is about recognising aliveness in the moment and stepping into it.
Work is part of your life, not the other way around. If you spend 8 hours a day (or more) without feeling alive, then what’s your life like?
You get to live your life with aliveness.
PS: we are going on a Podcasting summer break – we need to recharge and this is the time to do it, to keep bringing our aliveness to life. See you, err, hear you on the flip side!
