Covid-19B CoronaVirus Update
We have hand sanitiser, we have toilet roll (whatever that whole panic and fight videos were for) and we have all the regular goings on in the studio.
Do What You Can't
Do What You Can’t
Without boring you to absolute tears telling you how great my year has been, I have decided to share one take away, and commit myself to a few things in the process.
This year I was voted to the board of JCI (Junior Chamber International) in Dublin. As the Director of Individual Development, I was charged with organising the years training and development for members, and members of the public who attend the seminars and talks.
In March, we were lucky enough to have RTE presenter and content creator Carl Mullan in with us talking about content creation. From his hilarious Youtube channel to his amazing Instagram Stories he is a dab hand at making us laugh and want to follow along.
One thing Carl was gracious enough to do, was to reference where he got some inspiration, naming Casey Neistat as one of his heroes.
With that Carl kicked off with a video from Casey and gave us all the opportunity to think differently. Something that carried it’s weight through my year.
Here, is that video. Enjoy!
Smiling: 3 Exercises To Change Your Day
Smiling!
My hashtag#WednesdayWisdom post this week is about something that makes us feel great. Something I tell clients all the time is that when we see an old friend or win something, our arms go out and up. Our faces and bodies posture in the same way.
Thats why a smile goes out and up! Smiling causes a release of endorphins, happy hormones, so with that in mind.
I have some homework for you all.
1. Hold a pen in your teeth for 60 seconds. This creates the same facial posture and will cause that same endorphin release!
2. Smile at a stranger. Make brief eye contact with somebody you pass today and smile. Smiles are universal in language and give a little bit of kindness and warmth to you and the people you smile at!
3. Smile in the mirror. This one is vital and takes a little more time to feel benefit from long term. We spend our time in the mirror doing tasks and checking stuff. Brushing teeth, cursing or squeezing spots. So smile at yourself. Know what you look like smiling and walk away while still smiling. This will better your relationship with your own self image.
Did any of these work for you?
