Yesterday
I saw Shawn Anchor's TED talk on the secret to happiness in workplace. It
was a very interesting topic and especially relevant to my current
scenario.
As
explained several times in the past, I constantly struggle to stay positive and
while I succeed doing it for a couple of days when I consciously practice the same,
I am always struggling after few days. The past couple of days were the lull
after the good days of positivity. He said that being positive and happy
increases your productivity up to 33 %. I am aware that as personally I am much
successful at work when I recruit with a positive and happy mind than when I am
low and negative.
I
know it’s all easy said and done and the tough part is to continue it as a
daily habit. It takes 21 days to make a habit, so here is the plan.
I
want to spend 15 minutes every day at the start of the day to be grateful for 3
things in my life, maybe I will take reference to the day before. And also he
said that you need to write thank you or recognise one person for the good
thing that they do. I am not sure how far I will be able to do this
second part everyday but I will try.
So
starting today
- First
of all I am grateful that I stumbled upon this video at the right time
yesterday before my life crashed into a negative gloom , which to be
honest I am tired of.
- I am
grateful for having a very understanding and accommodating son and husband
who despite all the fights we have make my life so wonderful. I am
grateful for having wonderful parents and a beautiful sister and brother
in law who ground me and make me who I am today. They are always there for
my every decision.
- I am
grateful to have a job that I am relatively good at, paying me enough to
buy the things I wish for.
Thank you!! I do have a wonderful life.
