My business partner and myself have put a big focus on uprooting negativity from the workplace. The best part is we got immediate by in from others in the office. Every morning we have a 15 minute huddle and discuss a book we’re reading together that focuses on the positive. It’s been a big change.
One of the quotes from the book is, “You bring your own weather.” What interesting is to put this into practice in the simplest of situations. I’ve tried this in the elevator, at the grocery store, and with customers who weren’t in the best of moods. People can really feel you smiling even if they’re only talking to you over the phone.
From a small business marketing standpoint, it’s frankly good business. The positive energy seems to fuel a team environment and atmosphere. We’re all holding everyone accountable and trying to have every encounter with “love in our hearts”. It’s difficult. I had a very negative encounter with someone yesterday. I smiled away that person’s negative energy, at least to myself.
With such a short time on this earth, I often wonder how some are able to go day after day full of negative energy. It must be physically draining. If you have these problems in your business, rid yourself of the negative energy. Being positive or negative is a choice in most cases.
