There is a wave of change sweeping across American corporations and government and it also affects work-at-home types whether they are in business or the business of running a household and it’s making a difference in the lives of the people who practice it. A change in the way we do business within our walls with our workforce as well as with our external customers and constituents. It seems that people like doing business with people who like doing business and mixing fun with effectiveness makes good business sense in these stressful times. This is particularly true in the public service arena where many lives are touched by those who serve them and where balancing our quality of life is a basic issue.
We are like cows; cows produce more when they are contented and cared for. Creating an environment that promotes peak performance through playful professionalism and provides for the comfort of the people in the surroundings also decreases absenteeism, sickness, turnover, and stress while increasing morale, teamwork, creativity, and productivity. I share some of the most important keys below for those of you who are burned out, rusted out, and worn out from the daily stressors of life and business. This article is for you if you are overwhelmed, overworked, and overdue for a personal energy overhaul. If we don’t take care of ourselves, then we cannot take care of others and share our energy in order to become contributors instead of consumers of productive energy. Implement these keys to increase your energy, decrease your stress and to start balancing your work and your life today.
F2 Fun & “F”ectiveness
Fun and effectiveness combine to increase peak performance. Put the FUN back into functional by using unique, everyday items such as neon stickies, multi-colored paper clips, color-coded file folders, bubble pens, calligraphy pens instead of typing labels, humorous recognition cards/awards/coupons, and cartoon calendars. Learning and productivity are enhanced when fun is mixed with effectiveness to generate a creative and enjoyable environment for children and adults alike. Workers are like cows; we produce more when we are content. Many surveys cite having fun as a top workplace motivator. World-class athletes and entertainers also mention fun as a key factor in the success and enjoyment of their work.
F1 Function – what is yours?
What is your function in life? Studies show that those who have a purpose and are actively working towards achieving their goals are happier and wealthier than those who just show up for life each day. Set goals, change them, and actively work on them……..

More Resources to Energize Your Life
Filed Under Wealth | Leave a Comment
I’ve been going mach 3 with my hair on fire searching for more ways to energize all areas of your life and to hook you up with resources that boost the personal and professional sides of your daily to-do list.
For those who love blogs, but don’t love typing in all those different websites. I’ve found Technorati – a site that is a one-stop shopping site for gazillions of blogs. Check it out -
Technorati Profile
For those who love to travel and love travel deals even more. Here’s a tip from SmarterTravel.com – they suggest booking flights on Tuesday nights for the best fares since most fares go on sale Tuesday morning until Friday. The worst time to book a flight with the least amount of good deals is over the weekend. Fire up your computer tonight and check out the sales.
For everybody who wants to build their business and personal relationships by paying it forward and sending appreciation, positive energy and good thoughts; try out this new wave of sending hard-copy cards through the snail mail system by using your computer. You can send a customized card in your handwriting with your signature and your photos on the front or inside with your own message for about a buck in about a minute. Somebody else will print it, stuff the envelope, even put in a gift card if you’d like, stamp it and mail it for you. It saves you time, money, energy, and effort by not driving to the card store, paying $4 per card, and driving to the post office. Check out www.BizBuilderCards.com . This idea is perfect for motivating your downline or keeping in touch with your relatives and friends. There’s even a contact management system that reminds you of birthdays and other special occasions – you’ll never miss a customer’s anniversary again. Give me a call and I will set up a free gift account for you so you can test drive the system. Heck, I’ll even pay the postage for you on your first batch of cards. My number is 866-386-2896 – I’ll even pay for the phone call to hook you up with your complimentary cards. You will be happy you called.
I’m typing as fast as I can and will have several more articles out shortly. Until then, there are some great articles to help you pump up your performance and practice safe stress at http://www.funcilitators.com/resources.htm. Here’s a sneak preview…..
Ergonomics Improve Personal Energy
When my friend Sharon told me she was an Industrial Hygienist, I had no idea what that term meant. Did she do dental work in manufacturing areas? I found out that she deals with the workplace environment to ensure a safe and comfortable place of employment. Ergonomics is one of her fields and is essentially the study of what makes our bodies most comfortable in relation to light, sound, movement, temperature, air quality, and our furniture. Since the average office worker now sends and received 52 phone messages, 36 e-mails, 36 pieces of mail, 14 faxes, and 8 pager messages per day; we need to be comfortable doing all these things.
Here are some insider secrets on how ergonomics can help increase your personal energy and your health while you are at your office so you don’t have to go home from work exhausted……
