BE RESOURCEFUL - There is not a more useful or important trait to possess than resourcefulness in the pursuit of success. Point #2 in The Characteristics of Resourceful People That Bring Them Success:- 2. Self-assured. Believe you are capable of handling any problem placed in front of you. You must wholeheartedly hold the belief that you are competent and adequate enough to achieve what you desire. This belief is the first step you take in getting things done. When you are self-assured you like and trust yourself. You know your value, appreciate your talents, work ethic and your ability to consistently follow through on your every word, deed and action. Hold the mindset that workable solutions exist for every problem. Visualize yourself being successful every day. When facing difficulties picture yourself overcoming them. Imagine accomplishing your goals and celebrating your successes. Openly accept compliments and know that you deserve them. Keep a daily log of your successes. Write down your achievements each day and soon you will fill the pages and develop a clear scope on how far you have come and how much success you have had. This will go a long way in helping you realize that you have earned the right to be confident in yourself and your abilities.

What is CSR? Basically, it's the concept that businesses should have a larger, positive impact on society. It encourages businesses to move beyond just generating a profit. There are many ways to do this: -financially -environmentally -through outreach. 1. Sustainability and environmentally friendly processes are some great ways to make a positive impact on the world around your company. Examples include recycling, lean construction, reducing waste, reusing materials, energy saving, alternative fuels and sustainable designs. 2. Philanthropy is another aspect. Philanthropy refers to donating (typically money) to people, organizations or purposes. This may be the most visible form of corporate social responsibility because it is usually the one companies like to promote. Donate to a cause or charity. Sponsor a local event. 3. Donating your time is another option. For construction, a great option is to work with local schools or community organizations to offer- -guest speakers, teaching assistance or hands-on learning Opportunities. . The construction industry is in dire need of skilled laborers. Working with local schools or community programs with the goal of helping others gain valuable skills that could provide them a career is a great corporate social responsibility initiative that can have an additional benefit of helping your company when it comes to hiring new workers. You and your employees can also volunteer your time eg. For a local fundraiser or help out at a local soup kitchen or any place of goodwill that relies on volunteers from the community.

Reefs for Resilience! Half the world's population lives within 60 km of the coast - a coast that is under constant and growing threat. Rising sea levels, ever-more-likely and severe storms and cyclones, and increased coastal flooding all pose increased risks for coastal communities. There is, however, a powerful tool for innate protection: nature. Research shows that natural systems such as mangroves, reefs, floodplains and saltwater marshes can buffer coastlines, absorb wave energy, reduce erosion, and help make coastal communities more resilient. At least 500 million people rely on coral reefs for food, coastal protection and livelihoods. Some 30 percent of the world's reefs are of value in the tourism sector, with a total value estimated at nearly $36 billion. For these vulnerable communities, coral reefs are literally the first line of defense in a major storm; healthy reefs reduce up to 97 percent of incoming wave energy. .

“Sustainability is very important for the future of our environment, but sometimes the cost can be a deterrent for clients. The construction industry needs to find a better way to demonstrate that we can implement a more “ecological design” for the same price.” - Josee Atkinson, Blueprint Management See link in bio or www.constructioncaribbean.com to read the full article. #ConstructionCaribbean #sustainableconstruction #greenconstruction #caribbean #construction #environmentallyfriendly #ecofriendly #ecologyandeconomy #ecology #earthfriendly #energyefficiency #nature #sustainableliving #hometrends #architecture #design #architecturaldesign #climatechange

Management Tip Monday: It’s no fun to toil away at a job where you feel taken for granted. But don’t sit around waiting for people to notice you or your team’s good work. Find ways to highlight your contributions. For example, ask your boss if you can talk about your team’s responsibilities in an all-staff meeting. Tell the other departments what your team does, what its goals are, and how it’s striving to do better. You can also tout your accomplishments in smaller meetings or in one-on-ones with your boss. While you should be generous with praise for your team members, it’s OK to be honest about your personal achievements: “I accomplished X and Y, and I am grateful for the support that I had.” When you appreciate and acknowledge your colleagues’ work, they’ll usually return the favor.
