There is more than one way to practice mindfulness, but the goal of any mindfulness technique is to achieve a state of alert, focused relaxation by deliberately paying attention to thoughts and sensations without judgment. This allows the mind to refocus on the present moment.

When we are not mindful, we speak without thinking. We allow our emotions to get out of control. We are worried about the future or regretting the past. We feel the victim of circumstances, events, and others. Without mindfulness, we are a two-year-old child. We cry when our needs are not met. We don’t understand cause and effect. We expect others to take care of us. We can’t see past obstacles. We are powerless and overly emotional.

We are so grateful for our connections at B & J Enterprises. We are grateful for those that decide to work with us and those that decide to move on. They are saving us time and money.

Did you realize that it is so important to be mindful during the COVID? You are being inundated with so many tasks, images, and situations that we are forced to deal with daily.

National Workforce Development Month is in September 2021 and is dedicated to increasing awareness about the growing gap in skills and the promotion of workforce development in the 21st century and beyond. Paramount believes that training helps employees learn specific knowledge or skills to improve the performance in their current roles.  Leadership development is more expansive and focuses on employee growth and future performance, rather than an immediate job role.

The focus is on the importance of workforce development leadership training as a life skill because workforce development leadership training has the potential to be effective as a psychosocial strategy to promote positive social and mental health in adolescents and adults. This training is vital to the role that employment candidates will need in developing, strengthening, learning, adjusting, and coping skills that are necessary to build confidence and emotional intelligence.  The best part about this opportunity is that we teach entrepreneurship skills; which are embedded in the workforce development leadership training skills.

We all know that COVID 19 has altered all of our lives in some fashion. Now that we have worked from home for some time, many of us are second-guessing going back to the workplace. This episode of Motivational Monday - Keeping It Real With Dr. Blue explores this topic and how others feel about going back to the workplace.

Let's think about it...

1. How many days can you commit to working in the workplace now?

2. What expectations do you have from the organization that you work for that is different before COVID?

3. What types of work would you prefer to do from home?

These questions are food for thought as you listen to another episode of Motivational Monday - Keeping It Real With Dr. Blue.

I have amazing guest here today – Jawaan Sween 

This podcast is created to broaden your territory and think outside the box and to help you remember to stay motivated to bring in a better tomorrow. 

Did you know that resilience is the capacity to recover quickly from difficulties; the ability to be tough in difficult situations?

The definition of resilient is someone or something that bounces back into shape or recovers quickly. An example of resilience is elastic being stretched and returning to its normal size after being let go. An example of resilience is a sick person rapidly getting healthy. Able to recover readily, as from misfortune.

Resilience is important for several reasons; it enables us to develop mechanisms for protection against experiences that could be overwhelming, it helps us to maintain balance in our lives during difficult or stressful periods, and can also protect us from the development of some mental health difficulties and issues.

Did you realize that it is so important to network even during the COVID?

Let me share some tips about the importance of networking with others:

Ok look, networking is an opportunity to collaborate with others to improve your professional expertise.

This is a benefit to assist others by sharing your service or product.

If you are not helping anyone solve a problem, you need to rethink your game plan.

Networking can provide an opportunity to share ideas with others as well as skills.

Most importantly, networking is a valuable resource for others. They need you just as much as you need them.

Plus it is so satisfying to share your product with others. It gives you great practice talking about this great idea that you created.

You work hard in your business and this is a great opportunity to share your story with others. It is worth it and stop thinking that someone is trying to sell you something. They are…but guess what, so are you.
