Top Tips for Greater HappinessHappinessits different from job satisfaction and engagement:

Happiness leads to both of these but they dont work the other way round.

Are you waiting for someone or something else to MAKE you happy? So many people come

from the manipulative and unconscious perspective or mindset/ belief of YOU/THEY/THEM/IT/ made me ANGRY.

This is a complete LIE and manipulative deception of the greatest order. It reveals just how

UNCONSCIOUS or ASLEEP people areand how much of a victim they see themselves as.

The truth isI made myself angry at xyz Through my expectations, hopes, beliefs etc.. I am

a Wizard with my words and thoughts. It is I who makes Myself angry or happy as a REACTION

Or RESPONSE

It was my UNCONSCIOUS normal REACTION to a stimulus; here I give my power away to some

other source or person who seems to CONTROL my STATE Almost everyone lives with thelie.. that someone else MAKES THEM ANGRY

Seldom do we stop long enough to evaluate our range of options. People are badly

programmed and also have serious Thought Viruses running their lives.

The problems iswe are playing not to lose vs playing to win We spend more money on

PROTECTING than investing in our Greatness.

Check yourself. How much do you spend on INSURANCE? Do you invest an equal or greater

amount into yourself for ENSURING a brighter happier, healthier future? Why NOT?

There are 3 kinds or Aspects ofHappiness.

Emotional happiness

Short-term, burst of positive emotion

State happiness

Relatively stable mind-set, sensitive to change

Trait happiness

Generally stable across lifetime

Here are some simple TO DO and simple NOT TO DO tips and actions you can take to begin to

take back your power and transform your happiness at work levels as well as be happier as a

HAPPIER GENERAL STATE in your life.

Start increasing your happiness here

Around half of your happiness state comes from your past experience and your relationship to

them.. This is called your set-point. If you are Asleep than the remainder comes from your

automatic REACTION to the environmental stimulus. Once you Are awakened and aware,

you can reduce this 50% REACTION down to around 10%-20% depending upon your awareness

and resilience level. This means you can enhance your Set=point of Happiness

1. Make a list of all the things you can be grateful for right now. Make a huge list and read through

itmonthly at least.

2. Daily, before you start your day, slow down for 2 minutes. Become mindful of your thoughts and

consciously direct your thinking to focus on to 1 specific thing to be grateful now/today3. Know that your mind is programmed for Protection. Consciously focus on what you do want vs

what you dont want. Even in your languaging. Say what it is that you are wanting.. Avoid saying

what you dont want.

4. Focus on keeping your internal voice/s POSITIVE, constructive and supportive and From theLIGHT Make an irrevocable PACT that from NOW ONyou will ONLY allow POSITIVE caring, kind,

constructive, solution-focused commentary on the inside. Just this step alone can transform your

life instantly. This is the place to really start changing how you FEEL and show up.

Remember stateHappiness is an INSIDE job. Its a conscious focus and not

a reaction to your external stimuli.

5. Each day, take some time to laugh, smile and interact with an OPTIMISTIC/Happy person.

Happiness and unhappiness are highly contagious down to 3 levels away from the SOURCE. If you

have, or ARE, an unhappy boss. Do something about it right now Make NEW choices.

6. Look at what you DO have as opposed to what you dont have. So many people look higher up the

BE, DO, HAVE ladder with envy and self-criticism WISHING they could have more. Remember this,

Your good life starts when you stop wanting a better one.

Appreciate what you do have right now and then start to climb the ladder with gratitude, love,

energy and passion.

7. SECRET: If you have a roof over your head, running water, a bed to sleep in, fridge for food, then

your quality of life is in the top 25% of human quality of life on the planet.

8. Bigger Secret: Add to the above list.. If you have the use of a computer and internet access you are

DEFINITELY in the TOP 10%-15% of quality of life on the entire planet.

Question: Do you understand that you are AHEAD/ABOVE almost 6 BILLION people on the BE, DO

and HAVE ladder?! Are you living your life with this Gratitude? How could you live more

appreciatively starting right now?

9. Do a Random Act of Love/Kindness each week. Anonymously as well as do at least one act to makeothers happy, smile/ laugh. If you want happiness BE THE SOURCE of it. If you want LOVE BE THESOURCE OF IT! If you want FUN.. BE THE SOURCE OF IT. Stop reactingBecome RESPONSE-ABLE.

10.Write a letter, note, email of appreciation to someone each week.

11.Weekly, WRITE down 3 things you are grateful for and 3 things you COULD BE MORE grateful for at

work or in life.

12.KNOW that all you can impact is NOW NOW NOW! So manage your biological Computer

(BRAIN) and keep it focused on what you CAN shift, impact and change. Thoughts create pictures,

picture create thoughts which create feelings, which influences and drives moods, which

PREDISPOSES you certain actions, thoughts and feelingsagain.

Stand guard at the door of your MIND. Install a Thought-Virus anti-virus FILTER THAT ONLY

ALOWS constructive, supportive, positive, caring interactionsinternally.

main meals and 2 small healthy snacks in between. Lots of WATER Stopped alcohol. BE smart

25.If you are carrying emotional baggage do a LifeShift Workshop to clear it. But its probably time to

set yourself free from the negative and past influences, beliefs and limitations of your PAST.

Unhook your Baggage Trailer. Imagine .. if you could just completely forget the not-so-lekker,

past stuff and completely eradicate its influence and impact on your present moment of NOW

26.Store the Wisdom cut the cords / stop energy leaksHousekeepTidy up, apologise, forgive, let

4/4






It matters little what you have done till now

What matters most is what you are about to do. And WHOo you are about to BEcome.

Know this toowork for the sake of work is a waste of activity and life energy. Make sure there is

MEANING and a DESTINY in the work that you do. Make sure you are, or do work for, REAL LEADERS and

NOT GREEDERS or BLEEDERS.

Life is tooooo short. Get your shift together time now for a BIG SHIFTMake it happen with love and

passion. Your happiness is in your Hands

Worldwide Research shows that employees who are happier at work:

Are 180% more energized

Are 155% happier in their jobs

Are 108% more engaged at work

Are 150% happier with life

Love their jobs 79% more

Are 50% more motivated

Have 40% more confidence

Achieve their goals 35% more

Contribute 25% more

You might create a great place to work and be an employer of choice.

But if MINDSETS are misaligned, staff are UNCONSCIOUS and unhappy, and leadership is really

greedershipthen it matters naught!

A wise man, Ben Franklin once saidPeople are about as Happy asthey make up their minds to be. So true.

Final warning forTeams and Tribes Survival or Thrival.

In biology, 6% of a system can completely influence a system. either positively or negatively.

How many people in your teams and tribes are Negative, destructive, dis engagedEnergy

Vampires. Help them, with LOVE, to find some other company / place to be negative and

destructive.

We know from the LOSADA Line research, (3:1) of the minimum required balance of Positive toNegative comments ratio in a workplace, for a system to survive. If your positive to negative

comments ratio is 1 to 1, you are in DEEP do do.

If you want your team and tribes to THRIVE the Positive to Negative ratio needs to be closer to 6

Positives to each negative comment. Wake up, BE Aware, BE @Cause. You are POWER-FULL.

We offer Trans-informative Talks, Workshops, Team Buildings, Tribal Leadership, Consulting,

Assessments and Coaching to CultureShift and MindShift your workplace, Tribes and Teams culture.
