THE BIOLOGY OF BOUNCING BACK
Consider this, we receive more information in the NY Times in one day than people from the 15th century got during their entire lifetime… and you wonder why you forgot to pick up the milk! When under stress, 80% of our cognitive ability shuts down. After this happens, our brain goes into survival mode and we can’t make clear decisions.
The Happiness Advantage study at Harvard University also revealed that utilizing your sense of humor can help you reframe your brain for maximum results in both your personal and professional life. So is it really mind over matter? Yes! As Scientific America Mind says, “We have learned that a positive mind-set made a big difference in terms of attitudes and job satisfaction.”

Adventures in Attitude
Would you like to improve staff retention and increase employee engagement with a more positive workforce?
In today’s rapidly changing business world, it’s easy to get caught up in negative thinking. Pack an optimistic attitude along with your laptop and hope springs eternal. In a recent national survey, employers ranked a positive attitude at the top of their priority list when evaluating job seekers. What’s more, managers recognize that a “can do” attitude is contagious.
“Adventures in Attitude” is designed to help us understand that how we perceive and respond to events is our choice. Awareness is the first step involved in transforming negative attitudes into positive ones. It’s also the key to adapting in the midst of change (and as we all know, the only constant in life is change…)
“Just think, if we didn’t change, we’d all still be in kindergarten with ‘Left’ and ‘Right’ written on the top of our shoes!”
