Esprit De Corps...

Group spirit. Group loyalty. A common bond. Morale. This is the essence of Esprit De Corps. You’ve seen it happen during the playoff season. You’ve experienced it watching the Olympics. It’s like this invisible thread that connects everyone with a vested interest in your cause or plan. And it’s the solid foundation of any strong relationship.

Esprit De Corps makes people indispensible. These people are the needles that thread through the fabric of ideas, share the news, innovate, experiment, and learn from their mistakes. They are the tweeters, sharers, bloggers, and cheerleaders who go the extra mile to open doors for others. Without group spirit there would be no heart in any community, business, or organization.As an author in these changing times where you must build an online presence, create a platform, garner reviews, social network, guest blog, and a multitude of other marketing ploys, it’s tough to go it alone. In fact you can’t. Humans are social beasts. We need connection. We need to share. And we need a shot in the arm every now and then.

So the next time you find yourself on your favorite social network – go the extra mile and give someone a boost. Share their wares. Like their post. Tag their books. Tweet their stuff. Comment, friend, follow. Trust me — you’ll get it back in aces.
