caution: thyese are TRIPPY tips. It's up to you to believe them to be helpful or not. Message me if you think they ring true here: noellefides@yahoo.com Everyone has days when wanting to impress becomes a hard habit to break. It even comes to a point when we go to any lengths just to impress. Here are some ways on how to impress without "overdoing it." 1. Calm yourself down at all times. Be cool, that's what they say if you want to remain trusted and reliable. Employers would be uncomfortable being with employees who would blow up their machines because of their panic attacks. *try kundalini awakening yoga or simply a breathing technique. 2. Appear to be doing something passionately. YOu can't pretend you like what you do, but at least fake it 'till you make it. (believe me, it'll go a long way) 3. Report to your work on time. No messing with your superiors by making excuses that the traffic was heavy in (______insert name of city here). They'll know you're lying and you'll end up screwed and no monthly incentives for you! tsk tsk tsk. 4. Never speak about/show how emotional you are on the inside. Truth is, although you want to be "real" and show what you're going through, never ever show how your personal life affects you in your work life. 5. Invite others to open themselves through conversations. The only way to have a harmonious work life is to have open convos. 6. Call yourself "submissive" and able to get things done humbly, following your superiors. 7. Follow through on your promises / swears that you'll attend to whatever needs to be attended to. 8. make peace with yourself and know your strengths. (okay, it gets serious now) This will help you move through in your work and your peers. 9. Never ever cover up for something. 10. Most important of all, show you care, more than the paper.
