Employees require a certain amount of energy and motivation to be engaged and feel fully committed at the workplace. According to a recent study of 1.2 employees at 52 organizations, most of them Fortune 1000 companies, there’s cause for concern. Most employees start out with high levels of engagement and enthusiasm, the study finds. But after six months on the job, their morale declines sharply—and it continues to deteriorate for years.

I have found myself in leadership roles dating back to high school. In the past, I tended to shy away from leadership opportunities because I felt too much pressure for perfection. I thought if things went wrong, that I, the leader, would be at fault. The only problem is, leadership roles aren’t always clearly defined, and sometimes the role falls in your lap.

One of the best decisions you can make in your life is to choose to not get involved in petty office drama. Unfortunately, no matter how close-knit you are with your coworkers, you’re still going to struggle to keep your cool and your dignity, when it seems like everybody around you is acting like they’re in a time-jump episode of Gossip Girl.

Researchers at Indiana University aim to overcome that gap in a recently published study whereby they team up with LinkedIn to create a global map of labor flow.

Mindfulness is undoubtedly one of the more prominent trends of recent years, with dozens of apps emerging to help one achieve a state of mental and emotional wellbeing. Heuristically it’s easy to portray such apps as the polar opposite of your typical video game, with its sensory overload and excessive stimuli, but a new study from University College London suggests that digital games may actually be better at relieving stress than a mindfulness app.

Here’s a secret to having a more productive week: Spend 30 minutes Sunday afternoon or evening, or even early Monday morning, planning your week. I know that sounds overly simplistic, but it can actually be quite powerful. Give everything you have to do this week an estimated time and then place it on your calendar. Make sure you allot time for recreation, exercise and family.

They’re so dishonest, they could be called professional liars. In fact, many hypocrites even lie to themselves. Are you a hypocrite? Sometimes folks are unaware that they’re being two-faced, but oftentimes they know exactly what they’re doing.
