Yes, showing up matters, but...

...if by showing up you’re sucking the air out of a room, do everyone a favor and just stay home.

How is this related to the Flight Imperative? Taking responsibility for your life includes taking responsibility for how you show up.

  2. It's a visceral thing. When someone walks into a room and it's all about them; they are loud, they're gestures are big, they take over conversations, you feel as if you can't breathe. You are in a room with someone who requires all the oxygen. So if you show up needing all the oxygen in a room, stay home.
