motivation
MOTIVIDEOS By Cari Kraft, Jacobs Management Group This month’s theme is motivating yourself! Taking a line from Ted Talks, here are four videos to help you start your day, read people better, get out of your own way, or face a daunting challenge. We All Could Learn a Lesson From Her
Blame
No matter what you think about positive affirmations, you have to admit that this feels good. What do you do to start your day? (Just be careful on that vanity!)
It’s amazing how quickly we all go to blame. Try a little test: how far into your day do you get before your catch yourself blaming someone for something? Here’s an alternative, and how to look at things from a brighter angle.
Try Something For 30 Days What do you want to do? What do you want to stop doing? If either seems like a big challenge, here’s a way to whittle it down to a manageable success. This three-minute video should give you an idea of how to make that happen.
Body Language In commercial positions we are all in the role of influencing others. Before we even speak, we give an impression with the way we look—our body language. This is a short, simple overview of how our first impression affects our communication. Watch this and I am sure you will change one thing forever.
Submissions are welcome. If you have one you like, email a link to me at ckraft@jacobsmgt.com.
