  • EP 96 - It’s About Time
    Are you overworked, over-scheduled and just plain stressed out?
    There is a quote that says, Time is the most valuable coin in your life. You and you alone will determine how that coin will be spent. Be careful that you don’t let other people spend it for you.
    So Here are today’s Hot Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating It’s About Time Week:
    Schedule downtime. At least once during the day, you should allow yourself the luxury of having a period of time to decompress. The simplest and easiest strategy to use is deep breathing. It can be done by anyone, anywhere and in any circumstance.
    Create off-work zones. Determine what times during the day are off-limits for working, including no e-mail, or text messages. By defining these zones such as at meal time, bed-time and days off, we are creating the space for rejuvenation and connection.
    Learn to say no. Say no to things that are outside of your priority. Say no to working late, especially if it is self-imposed. Say no to extra activities if you are feeling stretched to thin. Saying no now, does not mean that it will be a no forever. When you feel like it is a priority and you have the time to dedicate to the activity without compromising yourself, then it is okay to say yes.

  • EP 95 - Whiny Wednesday
    We can be a nation of entitled whiners.  “It’s too cold.”  “I am the only one around here who does anything.”  “Blah, blah, blah” or should I say “whine, whine, whine.”
    Hunger, tiredness, boredom and feeling unwell are factors that can precipitate whining sessions at work, but some colleagues have learned from a very early age that whining gets them the attention that they are seeking.  Whining has become second nature and their predominant way of communicating.  Their behaviour is draining on relationships and it can poison a workplace.
    So Here are today’s Hot Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating National Whiner’s Day:
    If you catch yourself whining:
    Try moving from an attitude of entitlement to one of gratitude.  It is hard to be whining when focused on the positive and being thankful.
    Focus on problem solving.  It is okay to vent, but that venting must be followed by problem solving otherwise it is whining for whining’s sake.
    If you are going to confront a whiner:
    Understand that they are looking for attention, but give them attention for solving the issue, not for whining about the issue.
    Finally, minimize the amount of time that you spend with the whiner.  They will zap your energy if you aren’t careful.

  • EP 92 - Read For Relaxation
    I loved reading. I would read between homework assignments, favourite TV shows, or on the bus. I loved to stay awake until the wee hours if the book was enticing enough. That was before children. It seems that for many of us, our daily reading habits center around tweets, Facebook updates, or the ingredients of our morning cereal? We read on average 5 or less books a year.
    I find it difficult to add reading to my long list of daily to-dos. For me, the holidays give me the opportunity to slow down a bit and pick up a good book.
    So here are today’s Hot Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating Read A Book Month.

  • EP 89 - Spreading Holiday Cheer
    Have you ever gone caroling? We used to, when I was in public school. We would go to the nursing homes and entertain the elderly residents living there. I probably didn’t appreciate it as much as I would today. Christmas caroling is believed to have originated by St. Francis of Assisi in 1223. Though caroling has slipped by the wayside, I still love watching the old Christmas movies that depicted the carolers dressed up going from door to door singing the old favourites.
    So here are today’s Hot Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating Go Caroling Day.
