What is drawing people to each other? What connects them to one another?

Since the earliest times, the people came together to live in the caves and work together. By working together they learned and stimulated each other to improve their life and evolve.

Today, we are a modern society, with lots of excitement, things and places to see. The society changed, but we are still the same. We still like to get together in groups to share feelings, knowledge, ask for guidance and support whenever necessary.

We cannot leave by ourselves, or isolated like in the saying “No man is an island”.

But what makes people to come together?

The response is: Significance, to be recognized by others or be part of something.

For this reason we go and work together, we have friends, families and go out to watch a game together with other people. Is more fun to go to the gym and workout with others, you get stimulated to work better, and keep motivated to continue the pursuit of the body you want. 

For this reason there are many professional associations or groups for outdoors activities or cooking; people like to be among people with the same interests and hobbies. They want to feel connected and appreciated for what they are and know.

   I am sure that at a certain time in your working life, you experienced a moment when you were dissatisfied with your work environment and wanted a change.

The cause of this may have been due to the followings:

- You were overload with work

- You were bored as you didn’t have enough work to do

- Some of your colleagues’ stress which influenced your state

- The lack of communication in your organization

- Other colleagues’ negative attitude towards you or others

There are few steps that can help you manage and keep a positive state at work:

1. Work benefits - Always remember why the job is important to you and what benefits it brings you

2. Have a clear outcome - Communicate clearly with others and ask questions until you have a clear understanding of what is expected from you

3. Be positive and polite – People like to be around people with a positive attitude, are polite and respectful towards others, so be one of these people. The positive attitude is contagious, just like the negative one, so make sure you are spreading positive thoughts around!

4. Be organized – Keep a notebook for your things to do at work and new things you learned. Make a habit to prioritize your work, so you can tackle the tasks in their priority order, keeping your bosses happy and your mind clear.

5. Be curious – Whenever you have time available at work, learn more about your profession. You will expand your knowledge, become more confident and more valuable for your work.

I hope that these steps will help you to create a better work environment for you!
