Bus driver Joy explains to George that everything in the universe is made of energy. Einstein’s famous equation E=MC^2 proves that even matter is made of energy. Energy manifests in a person’s spirit. When that energy is negative, others feel it draining them; when it’s positive, others feel uplifted.
The outcomes in life aren’t dependent on circumstances like good and bad luck or good and bad employees or family members. Instead, outcomes depend on the energy people bring to the challenges they face. Negative attitudes tend to discourage those around us; team efforts stall, and results wither away. Positive enthusiasm, though, brings exuberant energy to daily tasks, inspiring everyone and adding to their joy.
Positive or negative energy is transmitted through a field emitted by the human heart. The field can be detected up to several feet away. Others know at once if a person is emitting positive or negative energy, and that energy will influence them strongly. It’s vital, then, for every team member and leader to practice a positive attitude, which automatically gets broadcast via the heart’s energy field and contributes beneficially to the team.
A positive attitude can be nurtured by feeling grateful for the good things in life, by taking all problems as challenges, by loving others, and by developing a sense of fun in every situation.
