Positive Energy (and the leeches who suck it right out of a room)

Just got back from the training… well not just…. like half an hour ago. I am so full of positive energy now, and Im all excited, I think tomorrow is going to be a lot of fun. I was thinking that I want to get together with these people… because apparently they are going to be in the area for a while (not sure how long exactly). I was thinking to myself while they were speaking that I would LOVE to do what they do, and I figured I would ask them how I should go about doing that.

One thing that I hate about these meetings though, is the people (ok… usually its a particular person, but there are others like her) who have to interject some negative rant (which usually is off topic anyway) and drags everyone down. Here we are full of this positive energy and excitement. Everyone is feeling optimistic and full of ideas. And then she sucks that positive flow right out of the room with this disorganized ramble of hopelessness and “but this” and “never” and “it just doesn’t work”. And its a total tangent. Or, sometimes she even just reinforces the point that the person just made but thinks she is actually disproving it. And she always has managed not to grasp the concepts that are being presented.

But… I love this stuff. I think its (yet another) thing I would enjoy doing for a living. So, I’m going to see what they did to get to where they are and what exactly is is that they “do”, and what it’s called exactly.

So.. looking forward to tomorrow 🙂
