6 Tips for Workplace Happiness

Start the morning and the workday with positivity and you need not to fake it. Saying a simple hello will go a long way in lifting someone’s mood. Who would be happy seeing you with a slumped shoulder and an abrasive mood? Get into the habit of positively starting your day right because it sets the tone on how you are able to breeze through the workday. A smile will go a long way in setting the tone around the office. It is amazing how a brilliant smile can melt the chilly interpersonal relations around the workplace.

Have some small talk

Small talk will make people become comfortable having you around. Start by asking your co-workers about their favorites or about last night’s episode of the Walking Dead (that is if they are also into zombies). Psychologists believe that showing a genuine interest in other people’s favorites will make them open up to you. This will definitely thaw the chilly interpersonal relations and could become a great support system that will make working in a toxic environment bearable. “Hey Mary you do like scrap booking don’t you?
