  • EP 523 – Expect Success
    When you expect success, you become successful!
    But it is not just a matter of thinking good thoughts and good things will happen.
    Positive and successful people expect success and they look for ways to bring success into their life.
    Research shows that high expectations lead people to work harder and commit to problem solving the challenges ahead of them. 
    So Here Are Today's Hot Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating International Expect Success Month:
    People who want to change their mental mindset:
    Accept that life will have setbacks and disappointments and they don’t let the fear of failure cloud their judgment or allow them to aim too low
    They build their resiliency by seeing the setback as only temporary.
    They don’t quit trying just because there was a set back.
    And finally, they wake up every morning and expect positive things to happen.

  • EP 522 – Stop The Bullying
    The longer someone is bullied, the more likely they are to develop physical, emotional, and psychological scars that can last a lifetime.
    The four most common types of bullying are: Verbal, Social, Physical and Cyber Bullying.
    Bullying can be devastating, leaving a person withdrawn, shy, and insecure. It can trigger a variety of stress-related illnesses, cause relationship difficulties, and upset productivity and engagement.
    Unrelenting bullying can lead a person to take their own life.
    A study conducted by the Workplace Bullying Institute, found that 37% of workers have been bullied, and that the majority of bullies were people in positions of authority.
    So Here Are Today's Hot Tips For Building Resiliency During National Stop Bullying Day Using The Steps Of The Proactive Personal Response:
    Number one, though it is not easy, communicate with the offender and let them know that you want the behaviour to stop.
    Number two, document every incident, including witnesses, and every conversation.
    And number three, if it continues, let your supervisor or designated officer know about what has been happening
    And finally, keep reminding yourself that you are a good person and are worthy of respect.
    As leaders, educating around bullying and developing strong policies and procedures to deter It, are the most effective means of minimizing its occurrence and impact.

  • EP 521 – Appreciate The Silence
    “The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quiet, alone with the heavens, nature and God. Because only then does one feel that all is as it should be.”  Anne Frank
    Studies show that even low-level chronic noise increases aggression and decreases cooperation and is associated with increased risk for peptic ulcers, high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, and stroke.
    Today is the day to lower the noise level. Being quiet reduces your stress.
    It allows the mind to focus and be more creative. It can boost your immune system.
    So Here are today’s Hot Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating Quiet Day:
    Breathe: Become aware of your breath and inhale and exhale slowly and deeply inhale for 5 minutes.
    Try this meditation: Turn off the lights, light a small candle and watch the flame. This stills the optic nerve, and calms the nervous system.
    At work, take advantage of a quiet room.  Many companies have developed quiet spaces where employees can take a moment or two during the working day to relax, have a break, meditate, pray or simply ‘take stock’ without the distractions and interruptions of office life.
    Get out into nature:  Taking a walk along a park path or country road early in the morning or before bed can bring focus and serenity to one’s mind.

  • EP 520– Can’t Find The Time
    We never seem to be able to find ‘the time’.  Stop looking.  You will never find it.  It isn’t lost.  You are living in it.
    So what kinds of things waste our time?
    44.7% of the more than 10,000 people polled cited personal internet use as their #1 distraction at work.
    Today’s Time Truth:
    If we fail to control the events in our life, then the events in our life will control us. Planning is key to performance. Not planning wastes time and energy.
    According to one survey the average worker admits to wasting away 2.09 hours per 8-hour workday, which is twice as much time as their employers expect.
    So Here are today’s Hot Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating National Time Management Month:
    Eliminate useless meetings. Insist on short, well-planned, morning stand-up meetings. They are the least likely to waste your time and interfere with your work.
    Stop thinking that you can multi-task. Prioritize and then break up your day accordingly. Don’t move on to the next task until you’ve really completed the previous one. Not only will you do a better job when you’re focused, you’ll also force yourself to finish something within the time allotted.
    Come up for air. Productivity declines after a certain period, so pump up your productivity with scheduled breaks.

  • EP 519– Keep Focused
    Do You Find It Hard To Stay Focused?
    Have you ever had your computer lock up when you have opened too many files or programs at once?
    Sometimes when we try to multi-task, we may actually freeze up, lock up or quit performing at our peak. 
    Researchers have studied human multi-tasking for the past 25 years or so and have found that the brain cannot fully focus when multi-tasking.  We take longer to complete tasks, and are predisposed to error. 
    The pressure to get more and more done, and toggle between one task and another creates a great deal of stress and pressure on the mind and body. Developing the ability to focus completely on a single task can help in our energy management.  
    So Here are today’s Hot Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating Single Tasking Day:
    Single-Tasking should be our main way of operating when needing to accomplish important tasks
    Let go of the idea that the more we tackle at any given time, the more productive we are or will be
    We have become like junkies in many ways, by needing a ‘fix’.  We check our emails, notices and webpages out of curiosity.  By setting time aside for these activities, we fill our curiosity, yet we are more likely to stay on task and complete that task more efficiently and effectively

  • EP 518– Connectedness Matters
    Did you know that people with few ties to others had 2 to 5 times the death rate as those who had more ties?
    Support and connectedness can be a powerful tool in preventing illness by acting as a buffer to the effects of stress. We benefit from the emotional support of a community during difficult times.
    Connectedness is so important to our overall well-being that workplaces are also recognizing the value of support to the success of their organization.
    It is unfortunate that the busier we become, the easier it is to let our existing friendships go by the way-side, let alone develop new connections.
    So Here are today’s Hot Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating International Friendship Week:
    Look up. Smile and say hello to those around you
    Try to connect with your co-workers about things other than the task at hand
    Participate in social programs
    Call, text, or email those friends that you have lost touch with
    Connectedness and group involvement have exceptional powers in decreasing our stress, if we venture to put ourselves ‘out there’.
