I agree. THIS is often the result of THAT. Something from their past, internal issues, etc. Complaints aren't all bad... it's just mindless complaining that is. If and when we take a stand on it, we can not only help ourselves and our organizations but we can also help those complainers perhaps move past those issues that are causing them to be negative in the first place. Not an easy task but if we care about our teams and our future, it's worth the investment.

I thank God daily (multiple times per day) for how amazing He is. That's a big part of anti-stress too. Trusting God and knowing that He has a plan.

When we don't have perspective it's easy to get stressed about things that don't really matter.

The answer to that question tells us a lot about our motives.

Finding that sweet spot is the goal. Thanks for stopping by Graham.

Being honest with ourselves on our own motives is sometimes tricky but absolutely needed if we are to be truly effective.

I think the best thing is to recognize it, stay aware of it, and be intentional about it. Personally, I'd rather have 100 sold our fans who really are behind the message than 500 who aren't.

Thank you!

I'm trying not to forget that. :) Thu, 14 Jul 2011 13:22:42 +0000 http://www.danieldecker.net/the-most-powerful-thing-you-could-do-today/#IDComment173413018 http://www.danieldecker.net/6-ways-to-master-the-art-of-woo-winning-others-over/#IDComment165618414 Haha. The Art of Woo is sort of like a Kung Fu death grip... if you use it well, you're like a Ninja of Positive Persuasion. : ) Thu, 23 Jun 2011 00:39:41 +0000 http://www.danieldecker.net/6-ways-to-master-the-art-of-woo-winning-others-over/#IDComment165618414 http://www.danieldecker.net/6-ways-to-master-the-art-of-woo-winning-others-over/#IDComment165103602 Right on Connie! Tue, 21 Jun 2011 15:39:18 +0000 http://www.danieldecker.net/6-ways-to-master-the-art-of-woo-winning-others-over/#IDComment165103602 http://www.danieldecker.net/shut-down-the-incoming-and-focus-on-the-outgoing/#IDComment161586863 Right on Graham. The four quadrant deal works create for isolating tasks but it's the inbound, the unplanned things, that often zap our productivity in major ways... ways many of us don't even realize because we're responding instead of creating.

I find that in doing this I can get more done in shorter blocks of time than I can when attempting to do it with the distractions creeping in.

It's all the same to me. If we treat people like we want to be treated, regardless of what we do, then we'll set ourselves apart and as a result have better relationships and opportunities. :) Thu, 9 Jun 2011 12:22:54 +0000 http://www.danieldecker.net/the-dangers-of-looking-for-an-easier-way/#IDComment160991735 http://www.danieldecker.net/when-the-best-marketing-in-the-world-wont-help-you/#IDComment136970798 Thanks Connie.
