3 Ways To Reduce Our Fear Of Failure

Leave a comment

Entrepreneurs at the #startupshow managed their fear of failure

By the 5th of February some new year resolutions have long been abandoned.

“A vision without an action, is just a dream”

We settle for our old approach to being healthy, thrifty or creative.

Perhaps we were afraid of what others would say if we failed to transform ourselves fully.

We can reduce our fear of failure in 3 major ways

Remind ourselves that we are free to be successful, not tied to past failures we encountered

Connect our objective with the benefits we and others will get  

Surround ourselves with people who selflessly support our goal

What route do you take to manage your fear of failure?

Happy New Year!

What’s The One Emotion We Will All Know?

A YouTube Short About Grief

Grief takes different forms for different people

Some of us are quiet in our grief, returning to normal after a short while.

Some of us get noisy and colleagues realise  we are suffering for a long time.

Some people find grief comes in waves and involves quiet times and noisier moments.

However we experience it, living with grief is the one emotion we will all know in our lifetime.

However, we face it, one thing is true.  

We all deserve space, time and support to grieve in our own way.

Why Caring For Ourselves Matters

We Can Care For Others Better If We Take Care Of Ourselves First

Looking after others’ needs takes time, effort and resilience.

We should ensure that the wellbeing of people providing unpaid care is a priority, all year around, not just during #carersweek

Carers Can Have Careers

A #YouTube #short for Carers Everywhere

Unpaid carers do an amazing job looking after the needs of family and friends.

That can be crucial to the lives of those with physical health issues. Not forgetting people whose care is important on #WorldMentalHealthDay and beyond.

Although caring is demanding, carers may even have paid employment which fits around their volunteer work.

Take a look at the video to be inspired when you use examples of caring skills when applying for paid work. Leave a #Like too, if this helps you and the people you know.

“So, How Are You Really Doing”?

Leave a comment

Asking wellbeing questions shows you care

Checking in with someone going through a tough time is part and parcel of being a good friend or #manager

That can mean asking ‘How are you’?

It can even mean asking the question twice and using #emotionalintelligence after hearing the answer.

It might feel uncomfortable being asked the question, or asking it (I’ve been in both situations). But from my experience the query is a game changer.

Anyway, here’s a reminder about what is involved in that level of care.

Why Saying Thank You Matters

Leave a comment

When it comes to success, no one makes it on their own.

There will be a coach, friend, family member or teacher who has proved to be inspirational along the way.

So, we should find a way to say ‘thank you’ and pass on that gift to someone else.

Who knows what that gift might inspire others to achieve.

How To Keep Calm In Stressful Times

Leave a comment

We could be a top politician, or a middle manager: in either case losing a job puts us under a mountain of #stress

Beyond the #anger at losing something that mattered to us – and the worry about paying the bills – there could be worries about not being good enough to find something else.

But before we make any life changing decisions we should be smart and spend time being #calm .

Giving ourselves that breathing space means we are mindful of our own state and better equipped to choose what we want to do next.

Meditation can help achieve that mindful state and create space for clarity. Even six minutes spent focused on our wellbeing makes a difference, whoever we are.

Making Time To Be Calm Helps Wellbeing And Creativity

Some days are full of stress.

Those are the days we feel burdened and tense.

On a day like that it is healthy to pause and make time to calm things down.

We are healthier when we create space to breathe deeply and clear our thoughts.
