Virtual Handshake

By Abe Newmeyer, March 18, 2022

Gratitude & PerspectiveRelationships & Others

While surfing the web yesterday, I saw a post that said, “The more hands you shake, the more money you make.” As the quote marinated yesterday something became apparent. With the pandemic, social media, and global connectivity handshakes can be virtual. There’s no reason for me to physically shake hands, like in years past.

Today, there’s virtual connectivity that’s more efficient. I can meet a multitude of people in the same amount of time. Part of my purpose requires me to be more effective and efficient, so it’s a natural fit.

Now that I’ve identified a solution a bit more work is required. I’ve got to determine who’s best qualified to help me moving forward. I’m guessing it’s someone with multi-channel social media experience. Fortunately for me, I’ve got access to an expansive database of suitably qualified individuals.

Today, Friday, March 18, 2022, I am grateful that:

Shirley, Nick, and the family are on their way over. We’re going to have lunch and spend the afternoon together. They’re great people and I enjoy our times together.

Veronica’s doing her best to fit it here in Cebu City. I know how challenging it can be to uproot and move somewhere knowing not a soul. So I can appreciate the effort more than most.

My first connection from a new social media app and I have an appointment on Saturday. It’s cool to connect with others and hopefully we can develop something mutually beneficial.

How many handshakes will you make today? (virtual counts)

What’s your plan to increase that number?

How soon before you implement your plan?

Be Great. Be Grateful!!!
