If you’ve read a newspaper or watched the news lately you have no doubt been bombarded with bad news stories about how poorly the economy is doing and how tough things currently are. Sure, the economy is certainly not booming but the oversaturation of negative news items would have you believe that the sky is falling! A story about a global company moving 200 jobs offshore will almost certainly always lead a story about another company employing 200 people.
Thanks, Gareth. Expressing gratitude (for things or to people)is a good way to help improve your mood. So are prescribed anti-depressants.
Cheers,
Keith
Thanks Keith, appreciate the insight and humour. The trouble with tradition psychology or therapy is it is based on the Norm - getting you back to the average or normal. The difference in Positive Psychology is it looks at getting you to be your best. While the science is relatively new (well in business acceptance anyway) there is a truck load of studies that are really bring this to the forefront. I’ve only really just stumbled into it recently and can’t get enough of it, so I look forward to combining my new found love with my passion for recruitment in future blogs.
Thanks, Gareth. I like +Psych, too. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Positive_psychology), and enjoyed one of Seligman's books. You Oz folks strike me as an optimistic lot: even though you spend your lives upside down, you're always in the future compared to most of the world's time zones, so you can tell how things turn out and make the very best of them.
YOWZA!
