Positivity Boost @ Work

It's Monday again and if you're having a tough time at work then here are some tips to help you to a positive frame of mind. I use them before a coaching session and it never fails to put my client and me in a resourceful state.


1. Stand up, stand straight and look up. (It's very difficult to be negative in this position.)


2. Smile. As I'm sure you are aware, smiling sends a signal to the brain that we're happy - even if we're not! - setting off a virtuous circle.


 
3. Count five positive things about today. They can be the simplest things from a beautiful flower you've seen to a smile from a stranger.



4. And now .... imagine your boss as Mickey Mouse or a Minion! (I refuse to believe you've not got a smile on your face now.)


Lastly and most importantly, choose your attitude for today. What's it going to be, an attitude that will help you or one which will hinder you?



Comment below for how these tips worked for you. Have you got any of your own which you use? Please share them in the comments section below.


Have a great Monday.

On Particularly Rough Days ...


"On particularly rough days when I'm sure I can't possibly endure, I like to remind myself that my track record of getting through bad days so far is 100% and that's pretty good."
