MINDSET LESSONS

Rest Breaks Let's talk about nice things! Pushing yourself without stopping will only lead you to one thing - burnout🥀 So, my friend, breaking for a little rest is not only possible, but necessary if you want to squeeze the maximum efficiency out of yourself! 🔺Everyone chooses an individual schedule for themselves, but two tactics work particularly well: 50 minutes of work / 10 minutes of rest or 45 minutes of work / 15 minutes of rest.

Pay attention to my voice message. Voice messages are quick to write, but working with them is not always convenient for the recipient for several reasons. Firstly, there may not be headphones at hand, and colleagues do not want to be disturbed. Secondly, it takes more time to listen to audio than to read text. If the message is long and important, you will have to dictate it or listen to the message several times. Thirdly, the sender does not always formulate their thoughts clearly enough, and analyzing the flow of their consciousness can get stuck. It is not by chance that voice messages in business communication are considered bad form. They can only be used in work with the consent of the interlocutor. MINDSET

Where should you put your smartphone during a business meeting? Of course, in front of you on the table: you won't miss any messages and emphasize your indispensability. However, according to the norms of business etiquette, having a phone on the table is a sign of disrespect to your interlocutors: by scheduling a meeting, you promise to devote all your attention to your partners. During a conversation, a smartphone in silent mode should be kept in a bag or briefcase. If you are waiting for a call related to the topic of the conversation, notify the participants and set the phone to vibrate. Speak briefly and in a way that does not disturb the other participants of the meeting: apologize and step out or move away if the room allows it. MINDSET

Recalled another pretty questionable modern habit 👉🏻The habit of using gadgets before going to bed. I’m not an opponent of modern technology, on the contrary, I’m in favor of it with all my might. But I notice that, if use my phone before going to bed, it is a little harder for me to fall asleep afterwards, than usual. As far as I know, this pattern has a medical basis. The so-called sleep hormone melatonin regulates our cycle of day and night. As soon as total darkness sets in and our visual receptors pick up on this, it begins to be produced in the body. If complete darkness does not come (any variation of the night shifted operating mode), a disruption in internal rhythms is provided🙌🏻 Yep, sometimes you can't get away from such costs, I get that perfectly. But try to keep them to a minimum! MINDSET

Autogenic Meditation Or to put it simply, visualization! All last week I've been meeting people who are gripped by fear, panic, and dread. No matter how you look at it, everyone is experiencing bad times! That's why I decided to write about autogenic MEDITATION. It will help when you get scared, you get hit with a wave of panic, when you're just in a depressed mood.🙏🏻 What's its essence? Scientists have proven that our subconscious does not distinguish between real events and visualized images. Consequently, fantasies significantly raise the level of the hormone dopamine, responsible for feelings of joy and pleasure. 👉🏻 What to do. - Allocate 5 minutes, close your eyes, steady your breathing and imagine the most picturesque and safe place. Feel all the details: colors, scents, tactile sensations. Sit in this state for a few minutes and enjoy the relaxation and tranquility. Trust my experience! Meditation works and instantly improves the emotional state! MINDSET

Symptoms that are yelling at you that it's time to take yourself back 1️⃣ You don't stand up for your opinion. Do you feel like your partner is always right? Congrats, you're dissolving into him.The catch is that he's not interested in always being right, which means you risk becoming uninterested in him. Acknowledge the value of your partner's opinion, but stick to your own. 2️⃣ You forget what you want. When you often push your own interests to please your partner, it's a path downhill. Don't deny yourself what you want. Love yourself. ⠀ 3️⃣ Open all your boundaries. Together every day is the way to fatigue and irritation. Missing your partner can be necessary so you don't lose the urgency of your need for each other. Don't get carried away with full disclosure of all your heartstrings. Let a part of you remain only yours. MINDSET

Strength in Sincerity Ever notice how some people are TOTALLY uninhibited about their emotions, thereby winning over those around them? That way others see that you are just as human and can sometimes make mistakes, and they subconsciously relax! 🚫 Remember: no mask with a fake smile or indifference! It's always noticeable to those around you and it works repulsively! MINDSET

Rich and modest If you have a good position in a company and make decent money, it's not necessary to talk about it and deliberately demonstrate your wealth to others. Luxury watches, branded bags, premium jewelry, the latest iPhone - it's great that you can afford to buy these things. It's not so great if you start telling everyone about it. Believe me, people have already noticed that you dress stylishly, prefer quality accessories and expensive cars. If you brag about it, you will only cause more dissatisfaction among those around you. You go to work to do your job, not to prove to everyone how rich you are. MINDSET

Step back During a business conversation, do not invade a person's personal space: do not approach or sit too close to them. The optimal distance with a conversation partner is half a meter. If you try to get closer, the person may see it as an aggressive violation of boundaries. Even when you're in the same room with colleagues, keep a little distance. You can move closer to those with whom you plan to engage in dialogue. Pay attention to the behavior of the conversation partner: when a person takes half a step back from you, they are unconsciously trying to create a comfortable distance between you. When someone presses on you, calmly step back half a step or a full step. MINDSET
