BAD DAY AT WORK

DEALING WITH BAD DAY AT WORK

There are some days when everything goes wrong. The whole day is totally wasted leaving you bitter, frustrated and angry. Well its tough to deal with a bad day at work but here are a few tips that will help you ease the tension and frustration.

Admit Your Mistakes

This is definitely a tough job but you will be amazed with the impact this courageous act will have on your reputation and trust worthiness. So if you think that you have done something wrong but you are too scared or just tensed to take the burden on yourself then it is time you let go of the fear. Just remember that many times our stress is just a bad conscience. One of the most effective ways to alleviate the burden of guilt and worry that a mistake can bring is to just own-up to it. Your underlying concern is the fall-out from being caught, right? Why not just meet it head-on and on your own terms? Believe me you will feel better and relaxed. Try it.

Stop Gossiping

Gossiping is the greatest evil. When you gossip, you are giving away a wrong impression. Those who are gossiping with you or who are present might not trust you for they will know that you will do the same thing to them when they are not around. This is definitely not the best trait to cultivate as a co-worker! Instead of relying on this old standby to spark-up the lunch table chat, have a few topics prepared before you get there. What if someone else starts gossiping? Don't get involved. Just try to change the topic smoothly and smartly.

Pay attention to your appearance

To have a great day at work one of the important thing is what you wear. If you are
wearing things to work that make you feel fat, old, frumpy or just uncomfortable, you are unwittingly causing yourself a bad day at work. We are directly influenced by how we feel about ourselves … including our physical appearance. Get rid of that outfit today and buy something that will make you feel confident and radiant at work.

Be kind and helpful

Always help those who need your guidance and assistance. You will not only earn respectbut will also be loved by all. It is easy to be rude and bossy but helping someone at work will make you feel more responsible and admired. The payoff to these small acts of courage and kindness will be a better day at work.

Remain busy at workplace

At workplace always remain busy, whatever work you may be doing but do it,
remain continuing .Create an impression and never remain idle.

ASKING FOR A PAY RAISE

ASKING FOR A PAY RAISE

Asking for a pay raise is a tricky job but there is a time
when you can take no more and you think you deserve a raise.
You've spent the last 12 months going the extra yard for
the firm, but the boss remains aloof when it comes to
topping your pay packet. Following are a few tips that
will help you ask for a raise.

PREPARE YOUR CASE

The most important thing before you take the plunge is to
prepare your case. Rushing into your boss's office asking
a raise is unlikely to get you very far. Therefore you need
to build a good case and have a clear idea of your
CONTRIBUTION and IMPORTANCE to the company.


ESTABLISH WAGE OF SOME ONE YOU KNOW

Try to establish the average wage for someone of your
experience and occupation. Always aim a little higher
than the figure you have in mind, but don't be outrageous
and be open FOR negotiation.


YOUR POSITION

Set out your position both clearly and concisely. Don't
be too rigid. Consider how you'll react if you're offered
an alternatE incentive. Are you only interested in cash
or will you be open to some other proposals like, a few
extra days holiday, over time pay, etc.



Don't be discouraged and have hard feelings if your
demand is rejected, but do ask for a decent explanation.

EAT SLIM

Dieting does not mean eating less or keeping yourself starved.
Most women on diet have this idea of dieting and the result
is that they are hungry since they eat less and hence they
give it up as quickly as they started. Dieting simply means
eating differently and eating sensible food and less junk
food. Sensible eating means choosing low fat, low sugar foods,
lots of fruit, vegetables, beans, cereal, potatoes, wholegrain
bread, rice & pasta, low fat dairy foods and modest amounts
of lean meat & fish.

Following are the important diet mistakes that are committed
which results into a disastrous attempt.

Most dieters don't eat enough. Result -- They get so hungry
that ultimately they give up.
Most dieters want to lose weight too fast. Result -- They
get so impatient, they give up.
Most dieters don't understand fat. Result -- They eat all
the wrong food available.

Hence one has to eat sensibly. Follow the following guidelines.

DONT GO HUNGRY

Hunger is definitely your biggest enemy. Because if you
stay hungry then it makes you feel miserable. And the end
result is that you give up dieting and go back to the
biscuits/cookies and all kinds of junk food you can lay
your hands on. Unfortunately, most dieters still think
that dieting means eating in small quantity - that's
why most of them give up dieting and stay fat.

AVOID FATS

Avoid fat because it is no good for your health. Fat
contains more than twice the calories of other nutrients.
Fat in small quantity is ok i.e., you need no more than
about 30 grams of fat per day. To do this, you must
switch to low-fat options whenever possible. Switch
to low-fat dairy products. Avoid high-fat foods like,
fried breakfasts, fries, pastries, butter, mayonnaise,
chocolate/candy and biscuits/cookies. Eat less
meat.Twice a week is enough. Switch to fish, chicken .


EAT LESS SUGER


Sugar provides us with virtually no nutrients, so if
we stopped eating it tomorrow we wouldn't be any
less nourished. It is not your friend and so have as
less sugar as possible in your diet. To do this you
will have to reduce the amount of sugar you add to
your tea or coffee or juice. Have cereals without
sugar. Avoid non-diet soft drinks. Instead, enjoy
diet drinks/minerals or 100% fruit juice. Avoid
so-called treats like biscuits/cookies, chocolates/
candy and cakes.



MORE FIBER


Fibre is very important and you must include more
fibre in your diet. Fibre contains far fewer calories
than fat or sugar so it's an ideal slimming food.
It also fills us up, so we feel nice and satisfied.
It also helps to protect against a number of
digestive complaints like constipation, diabetes,
gallstones etc. High fibre, starchy foods include:
whole meal bread, potatoes, brown rice, beans,
peas, leafy green vegetables, sweet-corn, pulses,
bran-based cereals, oat bran.


EAT MORE FRUITS

Adding lots of fresh fruits and vegetables in your
diet is not only good for reducing those extra weight
but it makes your skin glow, hair shine and is very
good for your health. Ideally, eat 4-5 helpings of
fruit and 3-4 helpings of vegetables every day. Eat
more salads; drink vegetable soups and green leafy
vegetables in your daily diet. Add fruits in your
cereals, drink fresh fruit juice without sugar or
simply cut fruits into big pieces and munch on it.
