6 Tips on Staying Positive When on Your Grind in 2019
A positive attitude can go a long way. It’s important to stay positive when you’re on and off your grind!
So I want to share a couple of my favorite ways to do so, while bringing in the new year of 2019!
Here are a few things I do stay positive.
BELIEVE IN YOUR ABILITIES, EVEN WHEN YOU FAIL
There’s no one out there who’s never failed. Being positive-minded means that you know you need to take risks and push your boundaries. Approach new challenges with the belief that either you’ll succeed or learn something useful for the next time around.
SETTING ATTAINABLE GOALS
Goal setting is a way of life. Once you’ve achieved one, you immediately want to set others. Having something to constantly strive for adds substance and meaning to your life. If you set attainable goals and meet them, you’ll be more inspired to set more goals you can reach.
KEEP LEARNING
Just because you’re not in school anymore and you have a job, it doesn’t mean you have to stop learning. Learn as much as you can from every experience you have, from presenting during a meeting or learning on the spot new photography techniques. If you don’t have a chance to learn from new things, ask around and see what others do in their day to day grind.
LEAVE WORK AT WORK
Make a rule where you have to leave your work at the office (or home office). If you don’t complete a task while you’re locked in at the desk, make it a priority for the next morning, but leave it at work. The more you put it out of your mind, the more rejuvenated you’ll feel each morning when it’s time to go back to the desk.
MAKE YOUR WORKPLACE NICE
Whether you have an office, a cubicle, a classroom, or a desk in the middle of a crowded room, make your workplace your own. Sitting in an environment that looks nice and makes you feel good will keep you motivated and inspired.
REWARD YOURSELF AFTER ACCOMPLISHMENTS
It’s just as important to reward yourself for your accomplishments as it is to not beat yourself up over mistakes. Marking something off your To Do list feels good enough as it is, but if you reward yourself, even with something small, you’ll be proud of yourself and want to accomplish more!
