Smile For Success
If
a picture is worth a thousand words, then a smile is worth a million. The power
of a smile is incredible. Even if you don’t feel like smiling, the simple act of
lifting the corners of your mouth can help you lift your entire spirit and find
something worth smiling about. Some of the greatest self-help advice out there
comes from those who advocate “fake it until you make it.” This is especially
true when it comes to positive thinking, and faking a smile goes a long way
toward producing the genuine thing. You may end up laughing at yourself merely
because you know you have nothing to smile about.Learning to smile on demand is an important step in developing a permanently positive mindset. One good technique for summoning smiles is to choose a happy memory that never fails to fill you with good feelings. Keep this memory at the front of your mental catalogue, and access it whenever you feel a case of the blues coming on. It may not solve your problems, but it will at least make you smile- which in turn helps you relax and take an objective look at your situation. Smiling often creates a mental cue for the foundation of positive thinking and helps prime the pumps of happiness.
You should also spend a little time in front of the mirror observing your own expressions. At first this practice may seem uncomfortable or downright silly, but smiling at your own reflection has a positive effect on your psyche. You can even practice different smile variations: the amused smirk; the close-lipped leg-pulling smile; the toothy grin; the laugh-out-loud open-mouthed smile. Think of it as an Olympic event...it’s your personal Smile Marathon, and you’ll win the gold every time!

Great Leaders are Personally
Productive
The best leaders are always seeking ways to be
personally productive. They constantly reach toward higher goals and take on
meaningful challenges. Great leaders become an example to their staff by always
moving forward.
Exceptional leaders are constantly reassessing
their own performance. They analyze their productivity and find ways to boost
it. Leaders also look to outside resources to gain knowledge and skills. They
take classes, attend seminars, engage in online workshops and read about their
field.
To be an effective leader, you must be efficient
in your own work. If you are disorganized, late, and harried, your team members
notice. They feel it is acceptable to be behind in their own responsibilities.
Strive to meet deadlines and always do your best.
Time means money and needs to be used
effectively. Once you lose time, you cannot get it back. Prepare an agenda or
checklist and stick to it. If something inevitable comes up, rearrange your
schedule to accommodate the change. Be proactive about using time wisely and
make staff accountable for their time, too.
Establish a system of time management. Some
managers use their computer, Smartphone or PDA. Others maintain a book or
personal schedule. Set up a system that works for you. It should be accessible,
simple to use and easy to understand. Also, establish a time management system
for your employees to gauge their productivity.
Because of the dynamic nature of management,
sometimes you need to shift priorities. Handle the situation with grace. Avoid
stress by reevaluating your time and adjusting your schedule immediately. The
sooner you handle an unexpected situation, the more likely you are to get back
on track.
One of the major mistakes made by many managers
is taking on excessive external demands. Never spread yourself too thin. Enlist
assistance when necessary. Know how to prioritize and what you can let go.
Make the most of staff members and
administrators. Maximize their capabilities and put them to work. When everyone
works together and focuses on the big picture, more is accomplished in less
time.
A bonus tip to modern management is to designate
a certain time to read and answer work email. If you constantly check your
email, it becomes an ongoing distraction during the day. Stay focused on one
task at a time and you will get them all done according to schedule.
