Watch out..I might hug you!
Much is being made of the hug new Liberal MP Bob Rae
gave Michael Ignatieff on Monday. Was it just a big bear hug between buddies.. or was it meant as a slight against Stephane Dion?
I admit it. I hug. Probably more than I should.
I hug at home and on the job. I don’t really hug trees but I like them. I’m always overdoing the hug at home.
But I also hug co-workers and listeners, bosses, teachers, neighbours…and anyone else I might run into. There’s nothing dark or deep behind it. I do it when it feels right. Maybe I should think twice.
Jack Mitchell is out with a book called Hug Your People: The Proven Way to Hire, Inspire and Recognize Your Employees and Achieve Remarkable Results.
His take on the hug: it demonstrates leadership.
Check out the many hug websites out there.
The Globe sent me to BushHugBlog.com. It’s just a lot of George Bush hugging people around the world.. even hugging the Easter Bunny. Funny.
A recent BBC report suggests most people are not getting enough hugs. . Hugs are good for your health and the hug experts say some three-quarters of us are hug deficient.
You’ve been warned.
