Stand Tall & Own It

Episode 75 - Three Insights on Being Present

Andrea Johnson

Two and a half years after my very first post on “Being Present,” I’ve learned a few things. Practicing Presence is not yet something I’ve mastered, and based on what I see out there, we all need a refresher. So here are my takeaways.

Three Insights on “Being Present”: 

  1. Everyone’s Present is unique. 
  2. Without curiosity, you’ll never get “there.”
  3. If being “present” doesn’t produce kindness in you, then you’re doing it wrong.

So what should we do?

  1. Unique: One size doesn’t fit all. Do your own work.  
  2. Curiosity: Get curious about you. When you don’t like something, ask “why?” and wait…
  3. Kindness: It’s the byproduct of presence.
