We have all been writing, posting and sharing in the wake of Hillary’s loss. I just received this email from Chris Brogan and he always shares some great advice and resources. Hope you find it as useful as I did. If you want to make a move check out:
- Rise Party
- Pantsuit Nation on Facebook
- Wear your safety pin and look for others doing the same
- Sign the petition asking the Electoral College to vote for Hillary
- If your an American living abroad like me see Democrats Abroad
Hi Barbara–
NOTE: This will NOT be a political newsletter post, but I will use a political event to frame what I want to talk about. In the US, we just had a very surprising presidential election. The mood here is somewhat like Brexit. Some people woke up feeling betrayed and others feel vindicated.
Friends of mine that I admire and trust their judgment voted for both of the candidates in question. People reported feeling lost afterwards, adrift. Several felt afraid for various reasons (like Brexit, a lot of hate speech has surfaced in a strange “told you so” and “now’s your time” fashion). Many people felt a bit helpless and uncounted.
There’s a fix my friends, the answer is always action. In business, when sales are low, you can have as many meetings as you want, seek as many new ideas as you want, but if you’re not out selling, you’re not going to solve the revenue problem.
Fail
Adapt
That means, when you get to the end of the AFA – adapt – you then should go back to “attempt.” If you win, then that’s a good thing. That’s AW. Attempt. Win. Awwwww! 😉 Movement is life. We have to talk a little more about that.
- I looked up how to contact my government representatives.
- I looked up how to send formal petitions to the executive branch.
- I looked up how to stay informed on which votes are happening.
- And I’ve already sent out a few notes to signal the actions I’m willing to take for the causes I need to protect and serve.
