RE: Change Your World with a Positive Attitude
I do not know if it the age that does the trick or the things he has seen.
Both and a few more things.
There are many things in the world to be positive over but the future remains unwritten (in my opinion) which means that if we want to create something better than we have now, we have to take life somewhat seriously. Of course, this can be done with a smile too but at times, it is going to require gritted teeth and a lot of sweat.
It is funny about the workplace. When I first came to Finland I started a 'Smile Finland' campaign in the office as people were largely sullen. Only an English guy joined. :D
Of course life has to be taken seriously, but there is no need to be grumpy all time (like many are and how I used to be). And I have found my life to be much more fun now as I don’t get all negative if I didn’t have time to vacuum today or if I messed up with something that wasn’t a life or death kind of thing.
Might also be sex thing. As our office is mostly men, so might be that they are more likely to join my positivity campaign now, than if I was a male too. Who knows, just speculating:)
I am pretty easy going with most things but when it comes to having discussions about complaints, rather than gloss over it, it is better to dive deeper.
Funnily enough, the English guy and I were the only two male trainers in the company of about 40 women.
I am grumpy a lot aren't I? ... :D
Well that is pretty funny!
Can’t imagine you being grumpy... :)
