СКАЧАТЬ thought at a time, and only one. The greatest cause of feeling “swamped” and “overwhelmed” in life is not knowing this.

      The greatest source of stress in the workplace is the mind’s attempt to carry many thoughts, many tasks, many future scenarios, many cares, many worries, many concerns at once. The mind can’t do that. No mind can; not even Einstein’s could.

      I need to choose from the list of things that need to be done, and then do the one thing as if that were the only thing. If it’s a phone call, then I need to slow down and relax and let myself be in a good mood so that the phone call will be a good experience, and the recipient and I can be complete afterward.

      We talked to Jason, a national sales manager who had just finished a brutally long phone conference with his team. He spent the conference call nervously urging his team on to higher numbers and warning them that the team goals were not going to be met at the rate they were going. He had called the meeting because his own superiors had just called him to question him about his team’s poor performance.

      Although Jason had been working 12-hour days, he felt he was falling behind in everything. On top of that, his superiors’ anxiety was then passed down to him. Because it was passed down into a hectic, disorganized mind, he freaked out and took it out on his team.

      This is not motivation. Motivation requires a calm, centered leader who is focused on one thing, and only one thing.

      7. Keep Giving Feedback

      The failure to give appropriate and timely feedback is the most extreme cruelty that we can inflict on any human being.

– Charles Coonradt, management consultant

      Human beings crave feedback. Try ignoring any 3-year-old. At first, he will ask for positive attention, but if he is continually ignored, soon you will hear a loud crash or cry, because any feedback, even negative feedback, is better than no feedback.
