BE INTERESTED ---------------------------------------------- (Most) people like to talk about themselves. When it comes to building relationships, there isn’t much better advice than this: be MORE INTERESTED and less interesting. . It’s simple. . TALK LESS. . LISTEN MORE. . While it might not come naturally to most of us, here are some simple and practical tips to be more interested in what others have to say and less interested in what we have to say: . ✔️ realize that every single person on this earth knows something that you don’t . ✔️ view each person as a book that you’ve never read or a movie that you’ve never seen . ✔️ understand that it is a privilege to get to know somebody else and that being GENUINELY interested has the power to make someone’s day . ✔️ STOP THINKING about what you’re going to say next and appreciate that IT’S NOT ABOUT YOU... at some point, you will be able to be interesting . ✔️ smile, nod appropriately, make eye contact, keep open body language, listen, etc. . Shoutout to @simplestrengthphysio and @dr.caleb.burgess for inspiring this post. . How can you be more interested? . Joe Rinaldi, SPT #joerinaldispt ---------------------------------------------- #dptstudent #motivation

ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER ---------------------------------------------- Talk is CHEAP. . ACTIONS speak volumes because as @simplestrengthphysio once told me... . BEING IS COMMUNICATING. . What do your actions say about you? . Joe Rinaldi, SPT #joerinaldispt ---------------------------------------------- #dptstudent #motivation

CULTIVATING CULTURE (III) ---------------------------------------------- 𝙃𝙤𝙬 𝙙𝙤 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙘𝙪𝙡𝙩𝙞𝙫𝙖𝙩𝙚 𝙘𝙪𝙡𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙚? . It’s simple. . Culture is cultivated through ACTION. . In the words of @simplestrengthphysio, “my actions are based off of my personal core values and when you have an established set of core values, the culture will come as byproduct. The culture is merely the effect of having multiple people within your environment that embody those same core values.” . “This is exactly how the @thelevelupinitiative culture was created. Not by making it happen, but by LEADING BY EXAMPLE, and acting in the world AUTHENITCALLY and with INTEGRITY in regard to my core values. This type of ACTION permeates and infects those within (the culture) leading them to adopt these same core values.” . In addition to authentic ACTION executed with integrity, culture needs to be INTENTIONAL. . So, once you’ve got a vision of the culture that you want to cultivate, ACT as if you were the living embodiment of that culture. INTENTIONALLY create your core values and act in accordance with them as you bring other people on board. . While culture is complex and beyond the scope of a few Instagram posts, we hope that this short series was helpful to you in some way, shape or form as you think about the culture that you want to cultivate. . Thanks for following along ❤️ ---------------------------------------------- #joerinaldispt #dptstudent #motivation #thelevelupinitiative

CULTIVATING CULTURE (II) ---------------------------------------------- 𝙒𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙞𝙨 𝙗𝙖𝙧𝙗𝙚𝙧𝙨𝙝𝙤𝙥 𝙘𝙪𝙡𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙚? . I have a confession: when it comes to haircuts, I keep coming back to a place where the quality is inconsistent and the price is steep. . But WHY? . It’s because I’ve formed RELATIONSHIPS with the people who work there and I genuinely enjoy the conversation, the atmosphere and the experience…. I keep coming back for the CULTURE. . In simple terms, BARBERSHOP CULTURE is what it sounds like. It’s the culture associated with classical barbershops. . ✔️it’s an environment where people like coming to hang out . ✔️it’s where people can share stories, shoot the breeze and relax . ✔️ it’s a place where people feel comfortable, valued and known . ✔️ most times, this culture accompanies a SERVICE(s) being sold or provided (hair cuts, education, physical therapy, etc.) . In the words of @simplestrengthphysio, barbershop culture “inspires authentic and meaningful conversations and relationships.” . In the clinic, barbershop culture helps create THERAPEUTIC ALLIANCE, and foster POSITIVE PATIENT EXPERIENCES. These are KEY to positive outcomes in physical therapy, other rehabilitation settings and all businesses that center on customer service (yes, believe it or not, PT is a customer service driven industry). . In summary, barbershop culture isn’t exclusive to actual barbershops. It’s a culture that draws people in, makes them feel welcomed and makes them want to come back. . In the next and final post of this three part series, we’ll talk about HOW to cultivate culture, whether it be at home, in the clinic or even on social media. ---------------------------------------------- #joerinaldispt #dptstudent #motivation #thelevelupinitiative
