Sometimes you are completely overwhelmed by all the conditions at work. Everyone is very complicated. One gloomy cloud is not over yet or the other is already coming. It’s just not fun at all.
At such a moment it is useful if you have some simple tips that will make your work more enjoyable. And well, maybe you find these tips very simple. You are right, because they are. But they are proven to be effective *.
1 : Pimp Your Workplace :- That sounds almost too simple, but it really works. Tidy up your desk and put down something nice instead of boring piles. Or take a different look at your work by sitting on the other side of your desk. I liked it so much that I am still on the other side.
2 : Be Kind :-Friendly behavior costs absolutely nothing and can make a world of difference. For the other of course, everyone understands that. But also for yourself! Read here how kindness helps you. Need inspiration? Watch the video in this article for more inspiration.
