Sometimes that’s all we need to do…just breathe!
Have you ever conducted a business meeting and left the meeting feeling that you talked too much? And you didn’t give anyone else a chance to speak?
Of course, some people are natural talkers. They will talk and talk without knowing when to stop. But monopolizing your business meetings, or any meeting at all, is not good.
Your purpose is not to give a speech at a business meeting but to encourage participation and feedback. After all, it’s a meeting and not a ceremony.
Furthermore, people attend meetings to listen and to participate. They do not want to hear one person speaking all through the meeting because they will feel as if they are not part of the team and that their input is not valuable.
So, what will you do to make sure that you do not monopolize your meetings?
Obviously, less talking! But this is easier said than done. What happens if you talk less and no one wants to talk?
Don’t worry, these simple tips below will help you to stop monopolizing your meetings.
Key takeaway:
Do you monopolize your meeting? Or have you ever attend a meeting and the person in charge talks too much?
Let us talk…
Are you really suffering from low self-esteem? Feeling good about ourselves is something no one can give to us. They can help, but it is up to us to do the rest.
It’s really heartbreaking to know that in this time and age, people still believe that they are not good enough and still feel sorry for themselves.
Anyhow, if you are suffering from low self-esteem, cheer up! Here are 3 simple tips to help you improve your self-esteem.
Yep! Stop having dark and dull thoughts!
We spend a consumable amount of time having thoughts about ourselves that are not true.
Dark, dull, cloudy, and stormy thoughts.
To illustrate:
Someone like me? So what is wrong with you that makes it so unbelievable that he wants to date you?
Research reveals that the words and sentences we use when referring to ourselves are positive signs of low-self esteem.
Stop having dark thoughts about yourself. Starting right now! Think beautiful, cheerful, and enlightening thoughts.
For example, feel the difference below using the same images above:
Visualize colorful thoughts. It’s healthier to have beautiful thoughts. You will enjoy life better!
Individuals suffering from low-self esteem tend to give away too many yeses. Learn to say no, and mean it.
Saying no does not stop people from liking you. Furthermore, people love to take advantage of “yes-persons.”
Don’t get this twisted now. Genuinely helping someone is completely different from always saying yes. Saying yes to everything someone asks you to do means that you are not doing it to be helpful but rather to be accepted.
To build your self-esteem don’t agree to things that you do not enjoy doing. Start saying no, and when you do, don’t feel guilty!
Imagine this…
You are in the supermarket, you need to ask a question, you approach the cashier, and the first two words are:
Why are you apologizing to ask a question? You haven’t done anything to be sorry for. Low self-esteem people tend to apologize for everything, wrong and right.
While apologies are important, do not use them inappropriately. To build your self-esteem, stop apologizing over excessively. Save your apologies for when you make a mistake that is deserving of an apology.
I would love to hear your thoughts, drop me a line below!
People who are successful have positive feelings and eagerly approach their tasks with excitement and passion.
No matter how difficult your job is, approach it with a high level of enthusiasm.
Remember that an enthusiastic worker produces high-quality work that increases productivity.
Don’t allow negative feelings about your job to stand in the way of your success. Psychologists say that the best way to change our negative feelings about something that we are doing is to change the way we think about our feelings.
Try to do that – change your thinking…
Enthusiasm is also contagious.
When you are enthusiastic about your job your co-workers will feel your energy and they too will start to approach their tasks with enthusiasm.
So, be passionate about what you do.
Successful people are enthusiastic people!
Do you agree?

Sometimes we have to stop what we are doing, and give God thanks for all that he has done for us. Despite what some people might think, we cannot do nothing by ourselves unless God permits it.
So let us make it a point of duty to give him all the praises; he deserves it!
Have a Happy Weekend!

You know, sometimes we go about our businesses ignoring some people who we cannot live without. These people are the shadow workers, and they are the ones who make our daily tasks easier.
I am referring to people like the garbage collectors, the street cleaners, the man who opens the door for you as you enter the store, that stranger who greeted you with a big smile, your office cleaner, and the list could go on.
Let us not forget about them.
Remember them in your prayers, and if you cannot pray (I hope you can), you are free to repeat the prayers above, right now, right where you are.
