Keeping a High Performance No Matter What

Excitement at the workplace does not last forever. However, it is this excitement that is responsible for our high performance and our great achievements. Basically, it is three things that make us do well in life generally: the relationship we have with ourselves, the relationship we have with others, and the way we see the surrounding environment. Today, we will glimpse the pillars that keep us productive and see how these should be treated to remain happy and productive.

1. Small changes will light up the fire of motivation

   Every new job entry comes with a wave of enthusiasm and excitement. The idea you will do something for the first time brings a sense of change, and the atmosphere becomes more lively. Motivation is often lost along the way since small tasks need to be resolved. The big dreams are left on the side and are being forgotten. Once the drive for work disappears, there is not much to expect in the field of performance. Just like in a relationship, we have to not get carried away by boredom and try new things.
   In the workplace, we have to invent new things that will make us feel that the job is interesting. Changing companies, jobs, or even careers will not solve any problem. If you don’t find a way to bring changes to your current job, the problem will not be resolved. In fact, it is our obligation to do that and transfer this air to others, including those on our team.

2. Relationships always affect us

   When we go to a new workplace, we get to meet people, and most of us are usually excited when a new job appears on the map. This excitement is magically being transferred to the people we meet at the new office, so the relationships can be optimal at the beginning. As workers become to know each other, competition grows between them, and some of the people around you in the workplace may not be as friendly. Most of the time, it will be the relationships with your co-workers, people who work underneath you, or your boss that will affect your performance. The relationships may be greatly affected depending on your position in the company.
   For example, a strict manager may have people’s respect, but at the same time, employees may be afraid of him. This will lead to poor communication and a lack of understanding and compassion. The key to answering this challenge is to understand that work is work, and whatever is not included in this aspect should be left out of the picture. Making new friends at work is a good thing. However, if it does not work for you, keep things simple and avoid further interaction. Keeping your relationships clear is the first step to making your performance stable.

3. The inner peace that connects the dots of a complex puzzle

   Starting at a young age is accompanied by all the dreams a young person has. As we grow older, not only does the job become way too familiar, but we also become more ”heavy” as personalities. In many cases, the boredom at work is only the result of the boredom we carry inside. We tend to believe that our life is less exciting because work takes most of our day, while in reality, it goes the other way around.
   Because we lose interest in life, we also lose interest in our job. A light depression expected to appear in the demanding world we live in makes us blame the wrong conditions for the reality we experience. The idea here is to take care of your life in general before focusing on the work part. A person’s life is a whole, and we often deal with it as if it is the sum of small parts that do not interact with each other. Everything is linked, and caring for one area will directly affect the other.
