A Guide’s Advice

Tip #2 for the Guide: Servant Heart

Hands down, the best guides I know on the river are those who truly care and serve their clients.  Having a servant heart means leaving your ego at the door. Being cognitive to your clients needs in every aspect of their experience is so important and knowing that your actions are serving your client will help shape your attitude throughout the day.  The best compliment that I receive from my clients, is when they tell me that they felt we took care of them all day!  Approach your day with a WE not a ME attitude.
