Share Time with Friends and Family Is A Part Of True Happiness!

Comments Disabled

Is a Part of Something You Believe In – This could be anything. People may take an active role in their local city council, find refuge in religious faith, and join a social club supporting causes they believe in, or find passion in their careers. In each case the physiological outcome is the same. They engage themselves in something they strongly believe in. This engagement brings happiness and meaning into their lives. 2.Share Time with Friends and Family – A happy life is a life shared with friends and family. The stronger the personal relationships are and the higher the frequency of interaction, the happier a person will be. 3.Reflect on the Good – Quite often people concentrate too much of their attention on negative outcomes and leave no time to positively on their successes. It’s natural for a person to want to correct undesirable circumstances and focus closely on doing so, but there must be a healthy balance in the allocation of personal awareness. It is important to mindfully reflect on the good while striving diligently to correct the bad. A continuous general awareness of your daily successes can have a noticeably positive effect on your overall emotional happiness. 4.Exploit the Resources You DO Have Access To – The average person is usually astonished when they see a physically handicap person show intense signs of emotional happiness. How could someone in such a restricted physical state be so happy? The answer rests in how they use the resources they do have. 5.Create Happy Endings Whenever Possible – The power of endings is quite remarkable. The end of any experience has a profound impact on a person’s overall perception of the experience as a whole. Think about reading a fairly well written, thought provoking novel. Now imagine the ending totally sucks. Even if the story was captivating up until the ending, would you still be happy recommending the novel to a friend? People always remember the ending. If the ending is happy, the experience creates happiness. Always tie loose ends, leave things on a good note, and create happy endings in your life whenever possible. 6.Use Personal Strengths to Get Things Done – Everyone possesses unique personal strengths. Emotional happiness comes naturally to those who use their strengths to get things done. The state of completion always creates a sense of achievement. If this achievement is based exclusively on your own personal ability to get the job done, the physiological rewards are priceless. 7.Savor the Natural Joy of Simple Pleasures – I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, the best things in life are free. They come in the form of simple pleasures and they appear right in front of you at various locations and arbitrary times. They are governed by Mother Nature and situational circumstance and captured by mindful awareness. It’s all about taking a moment to notice the orange and pink sunset reflecting off the pond water as you hold hands with someone you love. Noticing these moments and taking part in them regularly will bring unpredictable bursts of happiness into your life.

Dealing With Difficult People And Family Members Who Stop Communicating

Comments Disabled

Dealing with difficult people goes beyond working with difficult people but often means trying to handle frustrating and distressing family members. In recent consultations with clients here is an example of a typical experience when dealing with difficult people who are family members.

AN EXAMPLE OF FAMILY MEMBER CONFLICT

Here’s what one client explained. I thank you for your suggestions on coping with difficult people. But what I’ve seen is that in dealing with difficult people at work it’s simple as compared to family members. I’ve changed the way I am communicating with family members and they are being very stubborn trying to keeps everything the same.

CHANGING THE COMMUNICATION RULES WITH OTHERS

When I started setting limits, setting boundaries and speaking out about how I truly feel there was a backlash. As other family members have continued to try and stick their nose into my personal space I have been very strong to keep reminding them about my personal boundaries. However, a close family member has stopped talking to me altogether and cut off all communication.

DEALING WITH DIFFICULT PEOPLE AND NOTHING NEW

This response from other people is nothing new. This occurs when dealing with difficult people at work and personal experience. When you alter your communication patterns with someone, their first response is to keep working harder to keep the communication the same. When you still persist to change your communication, they often respond by cutting off their communication.

FAMILY SYSTEMS AND COPING WITH DIFFICULT PEOPLE

Dealing with difficult people who are family members is often much more complex than dealing with difficult people at work. This is because family members often know the behavior of each other so well. There have been years and years of dysfunctional communication patterns happening in the family system. When one family member attempts to change the way they communicate, the reaction of others is way over the top. Family members often react with a greater degree of resistance to these long held communication patterns. Going to extremes of becoming even more negative in their communication or refusing to communicate.

COMMUNICATION HAS STOPPED – WHAT DOES THIS MEAN

There’s many ways to handle things when a member of the family cuts off communication with you. But the most vital point for you to remember in dealing with difficult people in any situation is this.

YOU ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANOTHER PERSON

Here it is. In the end other people must take responsibility. You can attempt to work through the issues with them. But ultimately, it’s their decision whether or not they cut off all communication with you.

DEALING WITH DIFFICULT PEOPLE AND LETTING GO

You have to be aware that no matter how you attempt to handle the situation, sometimes family members decide to ‘cut all ties’ and no longer communicate with you. You need to recognize that in the end it is their decision to behave in this way. You have to actually respect their decision and let go in dealing with difficult people. Let go, give them the space they have demanded and get on with living your life.

DEALING WITH PEOPLE FINDING MORE IDEAS

In further articles we’ll look at other methods of dealing with people who cut of communication with you. But now stop the guilt. Remember that the decisions adults make are their own choices. Dealing with difficult people in the family means understanding, as you do in dealing with difficult people at work, that everybody makes their own decisions about their lives.

Five Ways a Healthcare Professional Can Overcome a Career Disappointment!

Comments Disabled

What is your first response to being overlooked for a promotion or interviewing for your dream healthcare position and not getting it? Do you feel sad, angry or distressed? Does it produce a blow to yourself-esteem or do you view it as a reflection that somehow you are not good enough as a professional nurse/healthcare worker?

Five Techniques/Strategies that can help you cope with a career disappointment.

1.If a career setback creates more than a minimal impact on you personally, you might want to take some time for self-care in order to recuperate emotionally. Sometimes all it might take is a rejuvenating weekend with family or friends if you feel they will be supportive. I have a saying about personal relationships: -There is nothing better than a good relationship, but also nothing worse than a bad one-. If you anticipate you might be criticized or put down by certain family members/friends, it might be wise to avoid talking about the issue with them. You don’t need another assault on your self-worth!

2.Other people who may support you emotionally could be members of positive groups, such as those of a supportive church. (I call them my church family). Turning to a spiritual support system or other social group where you feel your self-worth is -fed- can be helpful for some. You might not want to get too specific about the details if you live and work in the same area as some of your group members may know some of the people at your place of employment or a potential employer, but you can ask in general for support due to a personal setback, etc. If you don’t have any of the above positive support systems available, you might consider also working briefly with a good life, career or wellness coach.

3.Sometimes just taking time for self-reflection can help you recover emotionally more quickly. Using a journal can be helpful to sort out your feelings, and can also be healing. I use a simple composition notebook, but some people like a fancy, personalized one. If you live with someone else, even a spouse, you may want to keep your journaling private. There are journals available with locks. I tend to ask myself (my subconscious) questions, such as how I feel about the career disappointment to help me focus. Then I free write the answer. Other people take time early in the morning when they first get up or just before bed to write anything that comes to mind.

4.Another effective technique for some people is just to spend some time communing with nature and/or their concept of something more powerful than themselves. Twelve step members call this their -Higher Power-, while others may use the term -God-. Remembering who we are in our essence may help some with a more spiritual background to deal with a career setback.

5.Taking care of yourself physically can also help you heal. If you tend to eat a lot of sweets for example when you feel stressed, you might want to try a piece of sweet fruit to help satisfy the craving and drink more water which helps to fill you up and also eliminate toxins. In addition, walking more or other gentle aerobic exercise can help release endorphins that can increase an overall feeling of wellbeing.

Whatever way you may choose to heal from the emotional impact of a healthcare career disappointment, viewing it as a -setback- rather than a personal -failure- may help you recover more quickly.

Disappointment is natural in a healthcare professional career, how we respond to it is what matters!
