TIP 2365 – Farmers Stay Safe
Thursday Mar 13, 2025
Thursday Mar 13, 2025
Listen to today's podcast...
Growing up on a dairy farm, I know first-hand how stressful this occupation can be. It is an all-encompassing lifestyle.
Two-thirds of farmers say that they are stressed, with 20% saying that they are very stressed. Shortcuts or inattention can lead to disaster.
Farmers are resilient.
Stuff happens…to everyone…and you move on. Though there is a lot of complaining about what is going on around them, most couldn’t imagine living or making a living any other way. Those that can’t live this way, don’t last and move on.

Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating Canadian Agricultural Safety Week:
Think Safety First. During Canadian Agricultural Safety Week, the message is that awareness is the key to staying healthy and safe on the farm.
Know your priorities. Don’t let the business of farming become such a focus that you forget the connection to your family and friends, or the importance of your health.
Finally, It is not a weakness to connect with others. In days gone by, it was a given that you had to rely on your community for survival. It is important that you have enough supports in your support circle in order to be resilient.

Listen to today's podcast...
Millions are too sleepy for sex, according to a poll by the National Sleep Foundation.
Many of us are sleeping poorly which is causing us to be sleep deprived, and it’s taking a serious toll on professional relationships, productivity, public safety and even the most intimate aspects of our lives.
Nearly one-fourth of partnered adults say they have sex less often or have lost interest in sex because they are too sleepy.
Take One Action Today To Build Your #Resiliency!
Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating Sleep Awareness Week:
To Help With Being Sleep Deprived:
Go to bed and get up at the same time every day. Follow a regular schedule each night. This trains your body and brain and promotes a deeper sleep.
Keep your room cool, dark, and block noises. Use a mask if necessary and blackout curtains. Allow for thorough ventilation in the room to avoid breathing stale air
The power of suggestion can be a powerful aid in getting a better sleep, especially if used in conjunction with deep breathing. The more that it is used, the more potent the effect it has. Do not tell yourself how tired you are going to be the next day as this kind of suggestion is just as fulfilling
A good night’s sleep can mean the difference between coping effectively with the daily stressors of life and completely losing your mental and physical health.

TIP 2363 - How Not To Procrastinate
Tuesday Mar 11, 2025
Tuesday Mar 11, 2025
Listen to today's podcast...
How many of us couldn’t use an extra hour each day? Planning before starting each day, is said to save us this hour, as we are more effective at using the time that we have. Sometimes though we just can’t seem to get our act together.
Maybe we just can’t seem to get past our urge to procrastinate. It may be that we are being too perfectionistic, or we dislike the task or person that we have to work with. We could be too tired or fear that we might fail. Sometimes it is just a matter of the task not being a part of our goals and priorities.
Take One Action Today To Build Your #Resiliency!
Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating National Procrastination Week:
To Avoid Procrastination, we need to:
Find the answer to ‘What’s In It For Me”. Why do I need to accomplish the task at hand and what benefit will there be for me when I finish it?
Chunk your time – set a timer. The timer helps you to become more realistic about how long various tasks take.
Watch out for time gobblers – internet, email, TV, phone, socializing, unimportant notices and forwards
Delegate when the task is not part of your priority. Not everything has to be done or should be done by you. Let go of your need to control everything.
Make it fun by rewarding yourself. It is easier to start and finish a task if there is a reward at the end of it…by the way, my chocolate covered almonds are waiting for me as soon as I finish this flash briefing. Till tomorrow have a wonderful day!

Build an awesome workplace, one smile at a time.
Explore the “What If”. What if we didn’t do blank anymore? What if we changed blank? What if we started blank? See where the answers take you. This simple exploration could improve your relationships or your workplace.

TIP 2361 – Don’t Panic
Sunday Mar 09, 2025
Sunday Mar 09, 2025
Listen to today's podcast...
Help! It’s Panic Day.
This awareness day is not about panic attacks or panic disorder which is serious and affects 2-3% of the population. Today is the day to examine how we may over-react to the stress in our everyday lives and to find strategies that will keep us focused and healthy.
You know the over-reactions that we are talking about. We even have sayings that go with them… such as don’t cry over spilled milk… Or don’t make mountains out of mole hills.
Anxiety and stress have their place in our life. They help us to avoid danger. They keep us thinking and being creative. And they keep us on our toes so that we don’t become complacent.
The point at which worry becomes unhealthy is when it stops pushing us to act and move forward. This panic can be paralyzing and prevent us from thinking clearly enough to find the best strategies to deal with the source of our anxiety.
Take One Action Today To Build Your #Resiliency!
Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating Panic Awareness Day:
Listen to the way that you describe the situations that you find yourself in. Do you use extreme-type words? Do you awfulize everything? Choose the words carefully.
Evaluate how you are feeling in relation to the situation. Are you feeling helpless or hopeless?
Notice what happens to your body when you feel this way. Where does it hit you the most?
Try different relaxation techniques to combat those anxious feeling.
Evaluate the situation to see what options you have. Keep yourself moving forward in the problem-solving mode and the anxiety will be kept in check.
What is your release? Sometimes we need a quick strategy to release the anxiety so that we can start to problem solve. This may include a good scream, a run, or a round or two on the punching bag.

Listen to today's podcast...
We are missing out on living life, the more we have our noses buried in our phones or spend time chronicling our every move through Facebook and Instagram. Not to mention that constant connectivity negatively affects your sleep, takes a toll on your mental health and can lead to burnout. Ditching your devices gives your brain a much-needed rest.
Have you tried to disconnect, but FOMO took over? Could you go unplugged for 24 hours? Do you check your phone or social media out of boredom or procrastination?
Maybe it is time for a detox?
Take One Action Today To Build Your #Resiliency!
Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating National Day Of Unplugging:
Unplugging allows us to connect with ourselves, our loved ones and our communities in real time.
Take a walk out in nature today. Check out the parks, countryside or stroll along a beach, even if there is still snow on it.
Share a meal with friends or family.
Play together. Try a board game or use conversation starters like ‘would you rather’ to create some fun.
Write a gratitude list.
Meditate and fully relax. This can leave you feeling less stressed, and positively change your brain.
Immerse yourself in the moment. Take in the awesomeness of a sunset without Instagramming it.

TIP 2359 – How To Be Heard
Friday Mar 07, 2025
Friday Mar 07, 2025
Listen to today's podcast...
Running a small business can be very stressful. One of the keys to success, is to be able to reach your customers. But it can be difficult to break through the noise, so that your customers know that you even exist.
It can be just as difficult to be heard at work by your boss, or even within your family.
Our minds are being constantly bombarded by messaging from other brands and social media, from colleagues and from friends and family.
Take One Action Today To Build Your #Resiliency!
So Here are today’s Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating National Be Heard Day:
Get to the point…you have 8 seconds! One website suggests that we are exposed to around 4,000 to 10,000 messages per day and less than 100 of those messages will be remembered. Human attentions spans are at an all-time low dropping from 12 seconds to less than 8 seconds. The key to cutting through the noise is through short messages.
Use visuals. We process visuals faster than text and we remember visuals more than text. Create a picture in the mind of your listener if you can’t use a visual.
Provide value first. People are most engrossed in their own self-interest, so play into that. Make it about them, their needs, goals, wants and desires. Relate it to their own history, situation, reputation and behavior.
As a small company, what do you do to make it easy to work with you? How do you assist your boss or colleagues before presenting issues or problems? Do they only hear negative comments or issues from you? In your family, do praise and recognize the positives or is all your communication negative?

TIP 2358 – Telecommuting May Be The Answer
Thursday Mar 06, 2025
Thursday Mar 06, 2025
Listen to today's podcast...
It’s not a bird. Nor a plane…It’s the Telecommuter!
A survey of employees who telecommute three days a week experienced a
- 46% decrease in stress,
- 45% increase in job satisfaction, and
- 30% increase in job productivity.
In addition, telecommuting provides an opportunity to create a more harmonious balance between home and work commitments. Three-quarters of employees polled said the ability to work from home was their most desired family-friendly job perk.
Take One Action Today To Build Your #Resiliency!
Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating Telecommuter Appreciation Week:
For some, telecommuting may be a viable option that allows for an increase in productivity and more sense of control over when tasks get accomplished.
If you think that this is for you, sit down with your work team and discuss how this may be implemented. If telecommuting isn’t the answer, at least you have opened the door to looking for other alternatives to maintaining work and life balance.
Though I am not a true telecommuter, I am an entrepreneur with a home-based office. I appreciate the flexible work arrangements that I have. Some days, I work all day and into the evening. On other days, I may find myself helping out a family member or pulling the weeds from my gardens. This flexibility gives me the balance that I want and need.

TIP 2357 – Customer Service Matters
Wednesday Mar 05, 2025
Wednesday Mar 05, 2025
Listen to today's podcast...
What kind of customer service do you give?
You might be thinking, “I don’t do customer service”.
The reality is that we all DO customer service. Most interactions that we have today are ones where someone is supplying another person, with something.
Customer service is the act of satisfying another’s needs through assistance or service. Some of us deal with external to our company customers, some of us deal with internal to our company customers.
Take One Action Today To Build Your #Resiliency!
Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating Stop Bad Service Day:
We interact with a company because it delivers quality products, great value, or a compelling brand. We leave one, more often than not, because it fails to deliver on customer service.
Whether you are dealing with external or internal customers, know that:
The Customer is not dependant on you - you are dependant on the Customer
The Customer is not an interruption to your work, they are the purpose of your work.
You are not doing the Customer a favour by serving them.
The Customer is deserving of the most courteous and attentive treatment you can provide. They are not someone to argue with.
Research shows that delighting customers, doesn’t build loyalty.
Reducing their effort and the work they must do to get their problem solved, does.
If we keep at least these four rules in mind, we will be able to stop bad service from ruining ours, or someone else’s day.

Listen to today's podcast...
Everyone has problems that they need to deal with. Because problems can cause anxiety, many people will try to avoid, ignore or procrastinate when dealing with difficult issues in their lives. Ignoring them is useful sometimes. Unfortunately, with most problems, avoiding them just causes them to come back, and a small problem can become a big problem over time.
Take One Action Today To Build Your #Resiliency!
Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating Do Something Day:
The most difficult step in problem solving is getting to the doing part. To help you carry out your solution, make an action plan. If you know how you are going to carry out your solution, you are more likely to follow through.
Don’t let your own voice derail you. Be aware of and challenge negative self-talk that can stop you from moving forward.
List all the obstacles. Great problem solvers take a high-level view of the issues and list of all the potential factors that could get in the way of implementing their solution so that they don’t get taken off task.

Sunday Mar 02, 2025
Listen to today's podcast...
Whether out in the field or occupying the leader’s chair, everyone has a stake in reporting incidents of suspected or actual wrongdoing. However, being a whistle-blower feels like a violation of that playground rule not to be a tattletale.
Creating a culture that encourages an individual to raise the red flag when something unethical or illegal is taking place is critical.
So how do you get past the feeling of not wanting to cause trouble for someone else?
It’s by understanding that the consequences of keeping silent can be significant and harmful.
Take One Action Today To Build Your #Resiliency!
Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating National Ethics Awareness Month:
Create a culture within your organization that encourages employees to report wrongdoing. Work with your teams to understand that the cost of silence is high. This silence may impact the safety of colleagues or damage the reputation and bottom-line of the organization.
According to an article in the Harvard Business Review, a survey of 195 global leaders located in 15 different countries reported that high ethical and moral standards were the most important leadership trait in the workplace.
Those whose word is their honor and who can be absolutely trusted to be fair, honest, and forthright, are more likely to command the respect of those around them.
High ethical and moral standards create a safe and trusting environment in the workplace where employees can thrive. When employees feel that they can depend on and trust their leader, they feel safe and will go the extra mile for the organization.
While leaders have an obligation to set the ethical tone of the organization, it is everyone's ethical behavior that matters.

Building Resiliency and Celebrating National Snack Food Month:
Get good at reading. Don’t trust the claims of the food’s manufacturer on the front of the package. Judge whether a food is healthy for you by reading the ingredients and the nutrition information on the food label.
Prepare healthy snacks in advance. When you make something yourself, you get to control the ingredients. Keep plenty of fresh fruit and veggies in the refrigerator. Cut up melons or vegetables like celery and carrots in advance.
Healthy snacking doesn’t have to be boring. Make it interesting.
Go the caveman way. Try: Fresh Fruit, Salad & Vegetables. You can also add fish, eggs or meat, or dried Nuts & Fruits
Research shows that people who eat regular meals and healthy snacks are less likely to overeat and gain weight than people who skip meals or go for long periods without eating. Thinking ahead is the key to smart snacking. So…happy snacking.

Wednesday Feb 26, 2025
Listen to today's podcast...
Did you know that people with few ties to others had 2 to 5 times the death rate as those who had more ties?
Support and connectedness can be a powerful tool in preventing illness by acting as a buffer to the effects of stress. We benefit from the emotional support of a community during difficult times.
Connectedness is so important to our overall well-being that workplaces are also recognizing the value of support to the success of their organization.
It is unfortunate that the busier we become, the easier it is to let our existing friendships go by the way-side, let alone develop new connections.
Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating International Friendship Week:
Look up. Smile and say hello to those around you
Try to connect with your co-workers about things other than the task at hand
Participate in social programs
Call, text, or email those friends that you have lost touch with
Connectedness and group involvement have exceptional powers in decreasing our stress, if we venture to put ourselves ‘out there’.

Do You Find It Hard To Stay Focused?
Have you ever had your computer lock up when you have opened too many files or programs at once?
Sometimes when we try to multi-task, we may actually freeze up, lock up or quit performing at our peak.
Researchers have studied human multi-tasking for the past 25 years or so and have found that the brain cannot fully focus when multi-tasking. We take longer to complete tasks, and are predisposed to error.
The pressure to get more and more done, and toggle between one task and another creates a great deal of stress and pressure on the mind and body. Developing the ability to focus completely on a single task can help in our energy management.

Single-Tasking should be our main way of operating when needing to accomplish important tasks
Let go of the idea that the more we tackle at any given time, the more productive we are or will be
We have become like junkies in many ways, by needing a ‘fix’. We check our emails, notices and webpages out of curiosity. By setting time aside for these activities, we fill our curiosity, yet we are more likely to stay on task and complete that task more efficiently and effectively
