"We live in times of high stress. Messages that are simple, messages that are inspiring, messages that are life-affirming, are a welcome break from our real lives." -- Simon Sinek 🌅 Repost @harvard_business_review • • • • • • Have you been spending too much time staring at a screen lately? Though video chat apps and other technologies connect us while we work remotely, they can also cause mental, emotional, and muscle fatigue. Finding ways to proactively disconnect throughout your day can help you maintain and regain your energy. Here are five ways to take a break from your screen: 1) Don’t default to video. If a meeting doesn’t need it, consider other options. A phone call will often work just fine. 2) Block out time on your schedule where you’re not available for meetings. This can temper how much virtual communication you have each day. Set aside most of a morning or afternoon, or block out a few one-hour chunks of time throughout the day. 3) Choose physical over digital where you can. Brainstorming for an article? Write out your thoughts on paper. Creating a road map for a big project? Sketch the initial draft on a whiteboard. Reading a book? Pick up a print copy. 4) To counteract the fatigue caused by sitting rigidly in front of your computer, move around as much as you can. In between meetings, take a walk to the kitchen to refill your water or coffee. When you need a quick break, do a few simple movements like rolling your shoulders to get the blood flowing. 5) Take tech-free breaks over lunch and find activities to do that don’t involve a screen at the end of the day. Stepping away from technology not only gives your brain a break; it also gives you the added bonus of perspective. — Adapted from "5 Tips to Reduce Screen Time While You’re WFH," by Elizabeth Grace Saunders.

Infected by a bat, but cured by a llama! Strange times indeed, to say the least 😷 Repost @forbes • • • • • • Winter, a 4-year-old llama who lives in Belgium, has antibodies that neutralized coronavirus infection, as discovered by scientists who now hope that llama antibodies can be injected into humans who have yet to be infected as a preventative vaccine. Fuzzy friends around the world are working alongside their humans to do essential work in the coronavirus pandemic, which ranges from bringing smiles to isolated seniors to providing promise for a preventative vaccine.

"We learned not to meet anymore, We don't raise our eyes to one another, But we ourselves won't guarantee What could happen to us in an hour." -- Anna Akhmatova ☀ Repost @harvard_business_review • • • • • • A good agenda is the first step to any successful meeting. If you want to make the best use of everyone’s time, turn your bullet points into questions that drive to the outcomes you’re looking for. For example, instead of a general topic like “Budget Problems,” try a specific question like, “How will we reduce our spending by $100,000 by the end of the fiscal year”? Or replace an item like “Strategic Planning” with a challenge like, “What is the key market threat we need to be aware of, how could it affect us, and what can we do to anticipate?” Preparing these questions before the meeting will make it easier to determine who should be there and how much time you’ll really need. Ultimately, a questions-based approach to your agenda can bring focus, engagement, and better performance to your meetings. And if you can’t think of questions to ask, maybe you don’t need that meeting after all! Adapted from “How to Create the Perfect Meeting Agenda,” by Steven G. Rogelberg.

Never give up, no matter how hard the going gets tough, no matter how many times you fail, no matter how much negative people try to dissuade you, or how much pain you feel. All that will subside eventually, nothing remains forever, keep going and you will achieve your goal at the end. . . . . #albertabusinessreview #shoplocalalberta #supportalbertabusiness #businessinalberta #smallbusinessalberta #albertabusinessowner #albertabusinesses #albertabusinesswomen #albertabusiness #albertasmallbusinesses #albertasmallbusiness #albertastrong #albertaviews #albertamade #edmontonbusiness #yegculture #edmontonliving #edmonton #yegbiz #yeglife #yegliving #edmontonalberta #yegconnector #yegentrepreneur #yeggers #yegbusiness #yegsmallbusiness #stalbertlocal #stalbertbusiness https://www.instagram.com/p/B_nq7mrJlmt/?igshid=1qxs6iet8ebub

“Work to become, not to acquire." —Elbert Hubbard 👸👮 Repost @harvard_business_review • • • • • • It’s common to think that you should focus on one job obsessively to excel and position yourself for the next role. But such single-mindedness can actually hold you back from discovering your niche. There are ways to expand your knowledge, skills, and connections outside "work" in ways that can help you build, or rebuild, your career. This goes beyond attending conferences or even taking classes; it requires meaningful engagement in outside activities, such as board membership, teaching, serving the public, mentoring start-ups, and leading associations or clubs. But how can you find the opportunities that are right for you? First, spread the word among your trusted contacts that you’re looking for outside activities or roles relevant the skills you want to build. Explore your passions and see if groups connected to them have any open positions that would give you a chance to learn and develop. Seek out friends and colleagues who already have meaningful roles, side gigs, or volunteer work and offer to help them. Get your name, interests, and expertise out there through public speaking, social media, and publishing so that people start presenting possibilities to you. After this period of exploration and experimentation, you’ll want to be highly selective about the roles you commit to seriously. Ensure, too, that you’re picking a role in which you can really make a worthwhile contribution. That way, you'll be uniquely qualified and it will be well worth your time. — Adapted from "The Strategic Side Gig," by Ken Banta and Orlan Boston.

“A simple smile. That’s the start of opening your heart and being compassionate to others. “– Dalai Lama 😀 Repost @chrysalisalberta • • • • • • Good morning sunshine! Smile is contagious.
