Improving your Impact

" The single most effective way to improve your impact is to do a better job of providing it" ~ Seth Godin (Improving Your Condiments)




The "it" in this case is everything from choosing your music, to how you "teach". 
From how you present yourself to how you dress.


Improving your impact is in exact proportion to how much you care.

It always amazes me how infectious happy people are.
What they bring to the ride, lightness, gratitude, joy and just pure fun!


The opposite amazes me too.

What do you need? I want to help. Whatever it is, I'll do everything I can to make it right.
You're very important to me.

How many businesses make you feel this way?

I recently heard of a chain of clubs that do not require indoor cycling instructors to re-certify. They simply pay you half of what you were making when your certification was in good standing.

How important do you think you are to them?

"Statues"

"...a statue is a standing position that eliminates bounce while peddling (sic) and focuses muscular efforts on developing strength and control in the quadriceps". ~ website from a "reputable" studio


Where on earth are they getting this stuff? "Eliminating the bounce" means trapping energy in the joints, risking injury to the knees and spine.
