Choosing Happiness for Success: Michele Phillips on Developing Positive Workplace Habits

Choosing Happiness for Success: Michele Phillips on Developing Positive Workplace Habits

Living in the higher emotions is a choice, and it will lead us to success. Michele Phillips is the founder of Key Performance and specializes in increasing happiness and individual performance in the workplace. We can work on increasing our happiness by making intentional shifts in our lives, like taking time for self-care and positive activities that motivate and inspire us. It's important that we never sacrifice our happiness to achieve our goals, and sometimes we need help from an outside perspective, like a coach, to maintain a positive mindset and strategy during this process. Happiness is a powerful decision to make, and we can work on it and develop it as a habit in our lives so it becomes part of who we are and how we show up. When you choose to be happy, you are an asset to yourself, your business, and the world around you!

😊 Michele is the founder of Key Performance & the author of Happiness is a Habit: happy people have happy habits. 02:02
🏞️ When people regularly do something mentally, physically, spiritually, or emotionally for themselves, they feel better: a walk in the woods with a loved one hits all four. 04:17
💗 Happiness is just as important as any other goal: I'm of great help to everybody when I am in those higher emotions. 07:21
🛏️ Successful people take time to tune themselves in the morning: the energy you create first thing in the morning is what you take with you. 10:20
💭 In the positive psychology world, the difference between optimists and pessimists was how they processed and explained life events. 13:11
🤝 To be optimistic, bring your happy game into conversations: a coach helps you see your pessimism, but it sometimes takes time to accept it. 15:23
🔳 Know when you're emotionally hijacked: we all have a negative voice, but we also have a positive side that we don't always tune into. 19:30
👔 Busy people are boring - if you have focus and goals, you should have time to work out, manage your finances, spend time with your family and make money joyfully: what's your happiness portfolio? 23:07
🥳 When you're stuck, hire a coach to get an outside perspective and be able to pivot the strategy: you can make new positive habits in 90-day cycles. 27:25
