Click to listen to Episode 18 - Exploring Why Do We Avoid Doing What We Truly Want In Life and Work
Hi, Managers and Supervisors
How's it going?
As Managers and Supervisors, we set the tone of the workplace environment. Our actions, thoughts, goals, and interactions towards ourselves and others contribute to our staff, customers, and if we want to come to work. It spills everywhere if we are unhappy at home or work.
I know in the past, I felt unappreciated and showed signs of a lack of respect at work. I didn't want to be at work, and the energy around the office changed from exciting to unbearable. We all have moments like that and push through them.
Why do we avoid doing what we truly want in life and work?
Is it because we are afraid of what others think?
What if we all lived as we wanted and did the work we truly love?
What would the world look like if this was the case?
Would we be happy, peaceful, thoughtful, meaningful, and kind?
What if we held our tongues and didn't say all the negative things in our heads and to others?
How would that change our relationships at work and home?
What would the work environment look like, and would that change the work environment and how?
Why do negative thoughts and reactions creep in first instead of happy, positive, loving actions?
What triggers us to think negatively and say rude, unkind words to the people around us? Or consider the worse in others at work instead of the good?
Why do co-workers, the boss, and staff treat each other unkind instead of encouraging each other? What would the work environment look like if kindness came into the workplace? Would people want to go to work and feel safe?
What are happiness at work and home?
Is that what we strive for in life, to be happy, but instead, we have chaos, drama, and people mad at us or around us?
What happened to peace, calm, and love?
