Surviving Organizational Stress in the Workplace - Introvert Whisperer

Introvert Whisperer / Surviving Organizational Stress in the Workplace - Introvert Whisperer Surviving Organizational Stress in the Workplace Dread creeps in the second your alarm goes off in the morning. Potential excuses fill your head. Maybe you could call in sick or take a personal day. Anything but go into work again. You’re so nervous about the day ahead that you can’t even enjoy your morning coffee. This is a much more intense scenario than run-of-the-mill work stress. This type of burnout is what happens when typical stress builds over time and impacts every area of your life. It’s not uncommon, either. A recent study by Gallup of approximately 7,500 full-time employees found that 23 percent were dealing with burnout on a regular basis. When you’re overwhelmed at work, there can be major consequences for your emotional, mental, and physical health. Relationships and overall happiness can be negatively impacted, and you’re more susceptible to illness due to a compromised immune system. A disorganized workplace, which can often come from higher up the chain and be out of the employee’s control, can lead to burnout, as can a variety of other work stressors. Signs of Burnout Stress alone isn’t a sign of burnout, though it can be a precursor to it. Stress can be used as a motivator to push yourself to meet goals. It can also inspire you to make necessary changes to your workflow or lifestyle. When stress becomes severe enough to lead to burnout, though, there’s a bigger problem. These are some common signs that you’re now dealing with burnout: You’re not performing well at work any longer. You may not even be interested in your job at all. You’re doubting yourself and feel like you’re already defeated or alone. Your relationships with your supervisors or your co-workers are strained. At the end of the workday, you feel exhausted and drained of energy. Your passions no longer interest you and you can’t carry out your regular responsibilities. Other signs of burnout include: Insomnia Muscle pain Negative thoughts Substance use for coping Tension headaches In addition to affecting the employee, burnout can also impact the business and its customers. When nurses experience compassion fatigue, for example, they feel sick or emotionally drained from coping with so many serious situations. This type of burnout can cause them to no longer provide top-level care for patients. The same is true for professionals in a number of settings. “It brings about negative effects, such as increased absenteeism, decline in classroom performance, and poor interpersonal relationships with colleagues and students,” Matthew Lynch of The Edvocate writes about teacher burnout. “Burned-out teachers are usually less sympathetic toward the problems of students, and are less committed to their jobs. They develop lower tolerance for classroom disruptions, are less prepared for class, and are generally less productive.” It’s clear that the effects of burnout take a toll not only on individuals, but also on businesses, the economy, and those they are tasked with serving. How to Cope with Stress and Burnout Whether you’re stressed and on the way to burnout or you feel like you’ve already reached the burnout stage, there are ways to cope. Eliminate as many stressors as you can. Can you avoid an employee who always drags you down? Can you do things during the workday that will soothe you, like listening to music? Can you alter your schedule to have more concentrated time off? Track how much time you’re spending on difficult projects. You may be taking too long to work on a project that can be accomplished in a shorter amount of time. You could also break that project up into smaller amounts of time in order to make progress without overwhelming yourself. Exercise to improve brain function and mental health while reducing fatigue. Exercising in nature is best because it can reduce negative symptoms like anger, depression, and tension while improving energy and revitalizing you. Take a break from work. This can mean taking advantage of your full lunch hour, disconnecting from work for the whole weekend or taking an entire week of vacation time to get away. Don’t overwhelm your non-work schedule. If you fill all of your free time up with other commitments and responsibilities, you won’t get the necessary RR to revitalize. Some of your time off work should be filled with your social life and doing the things you enjoy. Once you’ve decided how you’re going to combat stress and burnout, form a plan. Are you going to change your daily routine or shift your work schedule? Are you going to start looking for a new job to see what’s out there? Write down the steps you’ll need to take. Simply having a plan can help you feel better right now because you know that, one way or another, things are going to change and improve. When to Look for a New Job If you’ve been experiencing burnout and have been trying everything you can think of to cope but it’s still not working, it may be time to reconsider your job. It’s important to know when it’s time to cut your losses and look for something new. Some things to look at are: Your boss is the primary source of stress and there are no changes that are in your power to make. The company culture isn’t for you. For example, maybe you’ve tried your best to enjoy the mandatory team building exercises, but it’s just adding to your stress. You feel like you’d perform better and be happier at a place where quiet productivity is wanted. You feel like you’re going to quit on the spot at any minute, even though you know that could impact a future job if you’re seen as a risk. Even if everything can be fixed and your stress can be diminished, you know you can’t grow at your company and advance in your career. Stress and burnout from work aren’t uncommon, but they have to be managed. When you internalize stress without dealing with it, it can grow exponentially and even threaten your health. Before you’re pushed to the limit, decide which changes â€" either minor or major â€" need to be made and make them.

10th Grade Math Problems

10th Grade Math Problems 10th grade math syllabus include Arithmetic Algebra Geometry Mensuration Trigonometry Examples of 10th grade math problems: - From arithmetic: - Example 1: - A mixed fertilizer contains urea and cow manure in the ration of 2 : 5. Find out the weight of the components required to produce 28 quintals of mixed fertilizer. Analysis of data: - Urea: cow manure = 2 : 5 Therefore proportional part of urea in the mixed fertilizer = 2 / 7 And that of cow manure in the mixed fertilizer = 5 / 7 In mathematical language the problem is i) 28 x (2 / 7) ii) 28 x (5 / 7) Solution: - i) 28 x (2 / 7)= 4 x 2 = 8 ii) 28 x (5 / 7)= 4 x 5 = 20 Answer: - Weight of urea= 8 quintals and weight of cow manure = 20 quintals. From Algebra: - Example :- Find the H.C.F. and L.C.M. of the following two expressions: 1st expression = 4 p^2 q r^3 2nd expression = 6 p^3 q^2 r^4 H.C.F. i) H.C.F. of the coefficients is 2 ii) The highest common powers of the variables are 2 for p, 1 for q and 3 for r. Therefore, the required H.C.F. = 2 p^2 q r^3 L.C.M. i) The L.C.M. of the co-efficient = 2 x 2 x 3 = 12 ii) The highest powers of the variables are 3 for p, 2 for q and 4 for r. Therefore, the required L.C.M. = 12 p^3 q^2 r^4

English Listening Exercise Freakonomics and Car seats

English Listening Exercise Freakonomics and Car seats One of my students has recently introduced me to U.S. author and economist Steve Levitt. Levitt, in his books and lectures, presents theories based on data that are often surprising and go against popular wisdom. This week, were using his TED lecture as a English listening exercise.Levitt has proposed a number of controversial and even unpopular theories. One famous theory from his book Freakonomics is that the massive, unexpected decline in crime that the U.S. saw in the 1990s was not the result of better policing, tougher prison sentences or the death penalty, but legalized abortion.The TED talk in the video below may be his most controversial theory. He claims that child car seats are no safer than seat belts in protecting children in motor vehicle accidents, and that seat belts may even be safer. This after a campaign that has made it a law that parent must restrain children in car seats in the U.S. and the generally unquestioned belief that it is the safest thing to do. Below yo ull find a Levitts TED talk in which he presents this idea, and is even questioned in the end by an audience member. If you would like to take an English class based on this video, contact us.Why you should listen to Levitt:With his 2005 book Freakonomics (co-authored with Stephen Dubner, a writer who profiled him for the New York Times), Steven Levitt carried hardcore economic method into the squishy real world and produced a pop-culture classic. Freakonomics is both an economics textbook and a series of cautionary tales about the fallacy of conventional wisdom. Levitt examines the links between real-world events, and finds many instances where the data simply doesnt back up popular belief.He asks provocative questions: If selling crack is so lucrative, why do dealers live with their mothers? Does parental doting really improve childrens test scores? Did New York Citys crime rate really drop because of police tactics (or population trends)? His controversial answers stir debate, an d sometimes backlash.What was the difference between the first and second cure for the disease?What was the problem with the second cure?Then ____ ____ a lowly economist. Who ___ children _______.What was the disease?What were the cures?But ___ _____ are so _______ and _______ and they ____ ____ ___ ______ of ______.What is the other line of reasoning people have against believing seatbelts are better than carseats?What happened when they called crash test centers?Fundamentally, the car seats ______ _____ ____.What did Levitts father give the first set of patients that came in to see him, if he thought they werent sick?What did he give them if they came in a second time, and he still didnt believe them? (use the specific word)What were in the third jar?What question does the person in the audience ask?

11+ Tutor Tips and Resources

11+ Tutor Tips and Resources This morning, fighting cold and rain, armed only with instant coffee, wits and 11+ resources, an amazing group of tutors talked through what they could do to help each other. Top tips for interview practice included: “I wear a funny hat when role-playing interview practice; it helps the student feel comfortable and makes it enjoyable. Then when the actual interview happens they’re not afraid.” Dino “I get them to interview me. I role play 3 types of pupil. First I pretend to be shy and don’t make eye contact; then I play an over confident child; then I try to relax and just act normally. I ask what they like and dislike about each of my characters and which pupil they would like in their school.” Mark The top nine 11+ resources were: Collins English Skills 5 Letts suggested by Rosaline Paul uses Galore Park Jamie made his own website for GCSE past papers â€" www.savemyexams.co.uk Cogmed and Lumosity for improving memory and speed; and Bofa 11 Plus for practicing online verbal and non-verbal reasoning which Madeleine uses The new RSL 11+ English Comprehension made by Rob Equivalency Cubes and Fraction Tower for maths aged 6+ suggested by Tom Mark has started using Bond Online  and  Learning Together Between everyone we had past papers for most top schools going back 15+ years, and most of the common interview questions. Phoebe, who runs 11+ programs in inner-city schools, shared some exercises and lesson plans. As ever the classic 11+ tutoring debate continued: (Thanks James) Do you tutor to help instil a love of learning …. or …. train students to pass specific entrance exams? Everyone seemed to prefer to make lessons fun and teach life skills whilst several tutors challenged the premise of the debate saying you can do both. No one wanted to be a ‘cramming’ tutor and there were several examples of pupils and parents who were clearly feeling the pressure. It takes a strong and experienced tutor to push back on parents who are  set on getting their child into a specific school. Those who do say it is easiest to do that from the beginning. Rob, for example, states clearly that he does not tutor to get a pupil into 1 specific school; instead he focusses on core academic and life skills. There was some criticism of the rat race of selective schools in London, with John commenting that parents sometimes pay for culture more than teaching. There are good teachers and bad teachers, just like there are good and bad tutors, and schools who take in 11 year olds capable of answering A-level questions might not always be adding the value themselves. I like Anthony Seldon’s wise words: “Your child is not your child. They are their own person and it  should be  the right school for them, not the “right” school for the parent” Many thanks to the 11+ specialist tutor  James for helping to pull everyone together. We’ll pop up more of the resources here and share more tips over the next few weeks.

Edd p.s.   Genius prop from Rosaline: she has a laminated “Mind the Gap” sign which she uses to highlight that the gap is between brain and paper and to remind students to be mindful to bridge that gap. p.p.s I’m no art tutor but here’s roughly where these guys are based in London:

Young Pianist Proves Practice Makes Perfect

Young Pianist Proves Practice Makes Perfect Young Pianist Proves Practice Makes Perfect Casey, 11-years-old, Math Level K Reading Level HI The age-old saying “practice makes perfect,” is often said by our teachers and parents. This saying relates to just about anything we’re learning. From riding a bike without training wheels to baking a delicious cake, all new skills need time and practice. For 11-year-old Casey, she recognized the importance of daily practice and discovered that it’s the key to unlocking her success. At a young age, Casey developed a passion for music and has dedicated time to strengthening her skills on the piano. Like any instrument, playing the piano is a complex activity that combines coordination and the use of multiple senses like hearing, sight, and touch. To master a new solo piece or perfect her technique, Casey adopted a daily practice routine. When Casey enrolled in Kumon, she quickly realized how transferable those skills were to her studies. “Kumon helped me establish a daily routine,” said Casey. “Overall, the most beneficial thing Kumon has taught me is that practice makes perfect. Putting in the time always pays off in the end.” In 2017, Casey was presented the opportunity of a lifetime to compete in the American Protégé International Piano and Strings Competition. Musicians and vocalists from across the globe auditioned for their chance to perform on stage at the world famous Carnegie Hall. Casey was committed to practicing and was more than ready for the world to hear her talent. It’s no surprise that she impressed the judges and placed third in the competition. What do you enjoy most about Kumon? In the Kumon Reading Program I enjoy discovering new books. I also love the feeling of making it to a new level and mastering a difficult concept. How has Kumon helped you outside of the classroom? Kumon helps me establish a daily routine. Knowing that I have to complete my worksheets, I’ve learned to balance and schedule my other chores and activities. I don’t waste time by sitting around watching television or playing video games. If you could sum up your Kumon experience in one word, what would it be? Beneficial. What do you want to be when you grow up? I want to be a human rights lawyer or even a delegate in the General Assembly for the United Nation. Who is your biggest inspiration and why? Every day I am inspired by many different people and can’t choose just one person. I motivate myself to reach my goals and continue to work hard. What’s your favorite book and why? My favorite book is “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows” by J.K. Rowling. I love this book because despite dark moments, the characters always work together and remain motivated to work towards their goal. What was your experience like at the 2019 Kumon Student Conference, and what was your favorite part? The Student Conference was a motivating experience and I enjoyed hearing from former Kumon Students. It was great to hear their struggles because it showed me that I am not the only one who gets stuck on challenging worksheets once in a while. What advice would you give to kids just starting Kumon? Don’t get discouraged when working on challenging worksheets. Be patient and continue to try and solve the questions. If you don’t give up, they will become easier for you. It’s worth putting in the time! Discover even more student success stories.
