5 Simple Ways To Spread Positivity

  1. Practice pleasantries. A non-grouchy "good morning" to coworkers or adding "I really appreciate it" to required "thank you's" are good steps away from negativity.
  2. Share some positivity. Find a good story each day and share it with at least three people.
  3. Save the lemon for later. When something is bothering you, don't obsess and let your concern spill over into your conversations.
  4. Slow down your response time. In our jiffy pop society, it's easy to get caught up in trying to respond immediately.
  5. Learn to laugh with others. A joke or situation doesn't have to be enormously funny in order for you to take joy in it.

Four Simple Steps for Making a Good First Impression

  1. Get to Know the Real You. First and foremost, being able to make a good impression starts by knowing who you are. Who you really are, not who you think you have to be for the right job.
  2. Don't Try to Be Something You're Not.
  3. Be Honest With Yourself.
  4. Relax and Be Yourself. The best way to handle the stress and worry of "what will people think" is to do what you do best – and that's being you.

Working Hard Is not Enough. Here's 18 Ways to Work Smart

  1. Get clear on the objective. The clearer you are, the better.
  2. Create a vision. See the objective as your direction, and your vision as your destination.
  3. Take the 80/20 route. 80/20 route refers to the route that takes the least effort but gives you the maximum results.
  4. Go for high impact items. Go for the most important tasks - the ones that cause the highest impact.
  5. Create structures to maintain your flow. If you know how motivation works, you will know it comes in bursts and waves.
  6. Stop being a perfectionist. Stop obsessing about the details and specifics; they often take care of themselves.
  7. Learn from others. There are great resources, smart people, direct opportunities and top books around you all the time. Learn to make use of them.
  8. If it works, stick to it. If there is already a success formula that's working, then reapply that formula.
  9. Ask for help. If you don't ask, you'll never get.
  10. Cut out the fluff. Don't do things unless they are absolutely needed.
  11. Automate. Is there anyway to automate your tasks, especially labor intensive ones?
  12. Delegate.
  13. Outsource. If something is not your area of expertise or it can be better done by someone else, then outsource it.
  14. Wait. Sometimes, waiting may be the best solution.
  15. Pick your battles. Don't try to ram up against every barrier you face, especially if there's nothing much on the other side.
  16. Always lookout for a better way. Don't restrict yourself to a certain set rule of doing things just for the sake of status quo.
  17. Stop when you are tired.
  18. Review regularly. Do a regular review of what you have done in the past week and the corresponding results.

5 Steps To Move Out Of Stagnancy In Life

  1. Realize you're not alone.
  2. Find what inspires you. Stagnation comes because there isn't anything that excites you enough to take action. Trash away your old goals (or just put them aside) and ask yourself what you really want now. Then go for them.
  3. Give yourself a break. When's the last time you took a real break for yourself?
  4. Shake up your routines. Being in the same environment, doing the same things over and over again and meeting the same people can make us stagnant. 
  5. Start with a small step. Stagnation also comes from being frozen in fear. Maybe you do want this certain goal, but you aren't taking action. Are you overwhelmed by the amount of work needed? Start small.
