A shocking 75% of workers dislike their jobs … while others find support to help them advance in their career goals. Have you noticed that in your organization? More importantly … have you wondered why some grow in the same settings that take others out?
It comes down to using your brain at work as both a tool to reduce toxi
c barriers … and a map to locate the support you deserve. Regardless of how you feel … simply do a few things differently … and watch the brain’s plasticity propel you to new peaks.
When relationship problems surface … for instance … people win support by building goodwill … even with those who disagree. How so? Try discussing the opposite of your ideas in tone that welcomes others’ perspectives. In that way you reduce cortisol … that shut-down-communication chemical that leaves you miserable.
If boredom arises from rigid routines … invent one innovation that will inspire others to change broken parts of their workplace too. Toss in a solution for each barrier raised along the way. Do remember to take risks … since the human brain benefits from making mistakes.
When procrastination stalls organizational progress … invite one or two colleagues to reboot their business brains together … using smart skills for added brainpower. To move forward … with renewed zip … is to raise natural brain chemical levels within your entire workforce. It’s also to raise the kind of support needed to manage change and maintain well-being in shifting horizons.
