Work brings together people of different
characters and behavior, and this often causes friction,
resentment and stress. Sometimes the boss is too demanding,
colleagues may be unpleasant, there might be too much work or
the working conditions may not be comfortable. The job may be
boring, there might be competition or envy between the workers
or the customers may be uncongenial or unfriendly. No wonder
there is tension and stress.
These are some of the reasons why most people eagerly wait
for their vacation. Their vacation provides them a way to get
out of their daily life and find some peace. The good news is
that you do not have to wait for your vacation. You can learn to
gain inner peace and enjoy every moment, right where you are.
You can stop fretting and getting tense. You can experience
peace of mind and happiness wherever you are. When your mind is
peaceful, the whole environment become peaceful.

Now you probably wonder what you can do to make this come
true. I am not going to talk here about meditation, though this
is one of the best peace of mind tools. Below you will find some
simple and easy to perform tips and suggestions to experience
inner peace at your workplace.
You may not succeed at the first attempts, but if you keep on
performing these suggestions earnestly, you will gradually begin
to experience peace of mind. This peace will not only by inside
you. It will spill over and influence your whole environment.
1) If the people you meet talk in a loud voice, are impolite
and tense, you will probably react and behave accordingly,
hereby raising the level of tension. On the other hand, if you
stay calm, talk, act and react peacefully, people unconsciously
emulate your behavior. You become a leading power, no matter
what is your position at work.
2) Each day before you enter your workplace, repeat several
times the following affirmation with feeling, faith and
attention:
"My mind is peaceful throughout the whole day. I radiate peace
around me. I talk peacefully, politely and with a smile. I
choose to act peacefully".
3) Greet the people you meet at work.
4) Whenever you feel tension or anger building in you, take
three deep slow breathes before any talking or action.
5) Pay attention to the words you think, say or write. Use
only positive words.
6) Be polite.
7) Whenever you find yourself raising your voice, lower it
immediately.
8) Talk in a medium pitch voice, not too loud or too low, and
don't let the loudness or pitch of other people's voices
influence yours.
9) Several times during your workday find a quiet place. It
may be at your desk, or if it is not quiet enough there, it can
be at the bathroom, an empty room or some other quiet spot. For
several moments visualize a beautiful location that you love or
some event that made you happy. Feel that you are there and
enjoy the feelings that arise.
10) While working, concentrate on what you are doing. Put
there your full attention. This will keep your mind off
disturbing thoughts.
11) Don't waste your time and energy analyzing and thinking
about people's motives and behavior, but rather try to improve
your actions.
12) Before speaking with someone whom you dislike or fear, or
someone who makes you feel tense or angry, take a few deep
breathes and visualize the two of you conversing peacefully and
harmoniously.
