Dr. Marla Gottschalk is an Industrial/Organizational Psychologist and coach - about PERSPECTIVE CHANGING QUOTES - TO IMPACT YOUR WORK DAY FOR THE BETTER: - Not every work day can be met with unbridled enthusiasm. We all have moments when our mood lags far behind the to do list in front of us. In many cases, we cant identify the the root cause of the malaise. It really could be anything — an annoying interaction from the previous day or a stressful commute. Ultimately, the less than optimal mood spells serious trouble for the day ahead. Certain days demand that you get your head in the right place in a hurry. Simple strategies can help. But, changing the negative dynamic — pronto — becomes the first order of business. Employing a few well traveled paths can help. I often opt to read New Yorker business cartoons. A great piece music can also help (Have favorites on Youtube bookmarked for this purpose.) Another quick option is re-reading a few all-time favorite quotes about work, career and inspiration. It can help to get lost in a couple of these and reinvent your day. Here are my favorite perspective changing quotes. (Please share your favorites, as well.)
