We often underestimate the power of a kind word. A simple "You're amazing!" can lift someone’s spirits, change the direction of their day, or even pull them out of a dark headspace. Appreciation costs nothing, but its value is immeasurable — for both the giver and the receiver. Photo by Eneida Hoti on Unsplash In a world that often feels fast, transactional, or divided, slowing down to recognize the good in others isn't just nice — it's necessary. When we genuinely appreciate someone, we’re telling them: You matter. You're seen. You’re enough. Whether it’s a friend, a coworker, a neighbor, or even a stranger online — acknowledging their worth can set off a ripple of kindness that spreads farther than we think. It's good for us too: studies show that expressing gratitude and appreciation improves our own mood, reduces stress, and deepens connections. Watch this heartwa...
The new week has just started, and it's common for some to feel a bit demotivated. If this feeling is persistent, it might be a signal to reassess your career path. However, most of the time, it's simply a mental block. To help you shake off that Monday slump, here are a few LinkedIn posts to reignite your motivation. I hope they inspire you to take on the week, one day at a time.
1. Career pivoting doesn’t have to be intimidating; in fact, it could be the best decision for your future. As mentioned in one of these posts, some of today’s billion-dollar companies began as something completely different before they discovered their true purpose.
2. Motivation is like a muscle—the more you train it, the stronger it becomes, and the less effort it takes to stay motivated. Our mindset is one of the most powerful forces in the universe—this is no exaggeration. Often, the things we fear are just mental obstacles, and the best way to overcome them is to simply dive in.
3. Our mindsets are the most powerful thing in the universe. Seeing its impact, this won't be an exaggeration. Sometimes what we are fearing is just in our head. The best way to mend this is to just jump in. For example, Think of it like exercising. As the weather shifts and winter approaches, it’s easy to find excuses to skip the gym—it's raining, it's too cold, you might catch a cold. But in my experience, once you start moving, all those worries seem to disappear.
4. I recently read Attitude is Everything by Jeff Keller, a book from 1999 that still holds valuable insights. Keller emphasizes the importance of networking, which is even more relevant in today's LinkedIn-driven world. If you're serious about networking, I highly recommend the final chapter of his book.
5. For another boost of motivation, check out Eat That Frog by Brian Tracy. While it's more recent, this classic guide offers practical tips for boosting productivity. Here's a quick summary of this powerful book to help you get started.
I hope this will change your mindset and you will be energized to begin your week. Want to add something, email me or comment here. I can include your opinion with your name in the article. Happy New Week!
