Wednesday Wellness: Light

You have the strength to be a source of inspiration amongst your colleagues. And there’s no better time to serve as a guiding light than now–especially in February when everyone can use a bit of a mood boost after the excitement of the holidays has worn off! Though spring may seem tantalizingly out of reach, remember that it’s really just around the corner. Here are the sayings we’ve curated for you today to help keep you going, and to keep inspiring your co-workers while you do so:
- “Walk your talk by backing up your words with actions. People believe what they see more than what they hear.”
- “I can draw out the best in others.”
- “I lead others by setting a positive example.”
Make sure that your actions speak louder than your words, and you’ll no doubt inspire others to reach your level. And remember: we’ve gotten past the halfway point of the second month of the year! Making it this far is certainly a reason to celebrate. As the year progresses, keep that forward motion in mind and you’ll be sure to pull through even the darkest of days, inspiring others along the way. Let your positivity and unique professional strengths shine through. And visit us again tomorrow for even more concrete suggestions on how to be a guiding light in any workplace.
