After the pandemic, masks and lockdown, it's time for a breather. Time for a break. Time to get back to a life more normal. 

So, we're doing something a little different for June. Our focus this month is to sit back, relax and focus on gratitude. On being grateful for all of the good around us. On thinking positive and stressing less. I know you’re thinking…’What’s gratitude got to do with wealth creation?' 

When you feel joy in your heart and mind, it changes you, how you present yourself to others, and how others perceive you. You're more enjoyable to be around. 

People naturally gravitate toward you. They want to know you, work with you, help and support you. Doors open that may not have otherwise.  

In a nutshell, gratitude can be contagious. 

In this episode, John C. Lame walks through the significant step of moving from entitlement to gratitude, especially in the workplace. Some people live their life thinking, I've shown up to work, that means I need my paycheck. Where did this entitlement come from? How can we get rid of it? Check out this episode to learn more!

2020 has turned out to be the year that many people feel out of control in their career, finances, and personal life. But one thing that we know to be true at UNTAPPED is that you can't wait for someone else to return control to your life - you have to take charge. 

In this episode, John Lame, CEO of UNTAPPED, introduces the concept of 1099 Nation, which is the uberization of the professional workforce. It's called uberization because of how Uber changed the transportation industry. And as you look across other industry groups, you're going to see this happen in more than just transportation, it's going to occur in just about every industry in the near future. What John discusses in this episode is how we see 1099 Nation as a movement and an opportunity for people to find work they love and do things that they are good at much more of the time.

So many of us are used to being recognized for our accomplishments in the school system and at work, but all of the sudden, these things we're being recognized for, may not be values in the workplace anymore. We're going to have to be more thoughtful about our own core values and if they don't line up with our employer's, then we're going to have to consider a serious change.

The world is Shifting to the Individual and it's going to require that instead of us passively showing up, we need to begin to think dynamically about who we are, what our career is and how do we add the most economic value? One way to ensure you're not being passive is to follow UNTAPPED on Facebook and LinkedIn. We also offer a Membership Site called UNTAPPED Minds. Click here to learn more.
