Are Eeyore Vampires Invading Your Work? Deal with Negative People without Becoming One
It’s challenging enough for most of us to do more with less at work as we’re all forced to do in this economy. But when Eeyore Vampires—negative people—invade, the dark shadows take over. I refer to negative people as “Eeyore Vampires” because just like Winnie the Pooh’s friend, Eeyore, negative people respond to most everything with “It’ll never work.” They are “Vampires” because these negative people morph at sunset into creatures who fly around your thoughts and suck time, energy, and attention away from enjoying your family and friends.

The Profitability of “Thank You”—Three Great Ways to Give Thanks from Your Business
Study after study in which we say “Thank you” to our customers reveals that they both spend more money with us and tell their friends about the exceptional service and products we deliver. Volumes of books chronicle how employee productivity zooms skyward when appreciation is expressed. (The best of which I’ve read recently is Shawn Achor’s The Happiness Advantage.) Vendors go the extra mile to extend credit and deliver “just in time” when they hear gratitude regularly.

A Maple Tree Business: Three Ways Your Business Stands Out in 2012
Nearly all of the trees on our farm had dropped their leaves by last month except for one maple tree. This one maple tree held on to its leaves like a kid hanging on to his blanket when mom says it has to be washed. Finally it let go of its leaves. The other trees were gray and looked like sticks. This last maple tree put on a show of color, its green leaves turned yellow, then orange, and red against the mundane backdrop of the woods.

3 Reasons to Serve Others as You Work Positive
Last week, I spoke to a group of State Farm agents and team members in the Houston area about how to Work Positive in a Negative World. During the workshops, I interviewed selected agents as positive examples of the five core practices. One of those agents, Corey LeJeune, serves The Woodlands, and has a son who turns one year old in a couple of weeks. His son’s birth prompted Corey to look ahead to birthday parties. He imagined great celebrations for his son, but then began thinking about less fortunate children whose parents couldn’t afford to give them a party.

The time changed for most of the U.S. last weekend. We “fell back.” How does this change affect you? Pretty much like any change does. Here are 3 Timely Strategies to Positive Change: Acknowledge the Changer Like most change, the reversal back to Standard Time came without our permission. Congress extended Daylight Savings Time without so much as a phone call to my office…or yours. That’s the way change operates. It shows up without so much as a warning for many of us. We find ourselves blindsided by a software change, a systems change, a pricing change, and the list goes on.
