There is a
saying, "Attitude determines Altitude." This can be true in the
workplace atmosphere. One person can make the workplace pleasant or difficult
for everyone. Your attitude truly does make a difference.
Do you stand
out as someone who has a pleasant attitude that gets things done or someone the
whole office dreads coming to for anything? What about that one unpleasant
person in the workplace that you hated to interact with? Do you remember your
thoughts and words to other co-workers about that person?
We have
heard the Golden Rule of treating others the way we would like to be treated.
Try having
the kind of attitude that you would like to work with. You may be the one that
sets the "workplace atmosphere."
Something to
think about: In Stephen Covey's book "The 7 Habits of Highly EffectivePeople," the fifth principle is "Seek First to Understand, then to be
Understood." So many times we want understanding and there is truly
nothing wrong with that. I want to offer a new perspective that many in the
workplace do not consider. There are people you work with every day that leave
home in the morning with a great deal of stress. Some are dealing with getting
small children to school before work, traffic pressures, challenges with
spouses, and financial stresses of all kinds. In addition, there are factors
like caretaking for elderly parents and illness within the family.
The
workplace could be much more pleasant if we consider that we truly do not know
what people are dealing with. We spend a large portion of our lives in the
workplace. I encourage you to be more open to getting to know who you are
working next to. You may be very pleasantly surprised.
Consider this: One can affect many. Will you be the one?

ReplyDeleteI just lost my man about three months ago though he is back again full of love and passion with the help of great man Dr. IKHIDE. I NORAH PEDRO from Norway, have been into a relationship with daniel mark since I was 22 years old and I am 28 now. I so much love him but I could not show the love, it was very difficult for me to prove my realness to him because I thought to prove my love to him might make him look down on me and go after other girls. for over six years Daniel has given me all that I ask of him. I always threatened him with break up each time I want to see his level of love for me because I was told if I threaten him, he will propose to me and then will get married to him before I can show my love despite his complains of him not sure of my love I was responding to him with negative words. though I was suspecting he has another girl in his life, I did not border to ask him about that because I was so sure of his love despite my attitude. on the 8th of September a day to my birthday he came and gave me so many lovely gifts like never before claiming to wish me a happy birthday in advance with his words and behavior I expected him to propose to me on my birthday night then I will also tell him of my pregnant for him. I wait for him on my birthday he did not show up not even a call, I tried his number and it was not going through I refuse to go check on him because the anger in me six days later I went to his house and I found nothing not even a sign of my Daniel once live there. I was disappointed, frustrated, confused with so many thoughts on my mind like hanging my self if I did not see him again because I can not my parent about the pregnancy when the man responsible for it had disappeared. our religion's against that, my family will be disappointed in me, I have brought them shame. I look for daniel everywhere till I could chat with him on social network, he warned me never to disturb him again because he already had found another girl that he wants to live his life with, after a while, he blocked me from all access then I could not tell him of my pregnancy for him. so, I needed help from all corners of life, I decide to check to google my self or read some write up on-site on how to coup with my pain because I could not tell anybody about it not even my friends were aware of my pregnancy. I keep reading to cancel my self till I find how Dr. IKHIDE helps so many persons from different walks of life with their testimonies. then I decide to also contact him with dr.ikhide@gmail.com. Because I do not know much about contacting a spell caster, I was not sure he can bring my Dan back but I decide to give him a try though his requirement was another problem I meet with a friend for help because I could not the items that he needed I have to plead with Dr. IKHIDE to help me get the items because really need my man back to take away my shame. just two days after I send him the requirement Daniel calls me, plead for forgiveness. just yesterday he propose to me and I am so happy. you can also contact him with dr.ikhide@gmail.com
