There are bad habits that you can bring to work, and then there are toxic habits that you can bring to work. Bad habits usually irritate others around you and delay progress in some way, shape or form. Toxic habits go beyond mere irritation of co-workers—they decrease employee morale, sabotage team performance, and destroy work relationships.
The fact is, if an employee or employees are able to exist within an organization or team with toxic habits, that organization or team will never achieve the desired results it sets out to accomplish. That’s the simple law of Cause and Effect. Healthy habits create positive rewards. Toxic habits breed negative outcomes.
If you want to distance yourself from the countless number of employees who bring bad and toxic habits to work, and enjoy being a co-worker who is liked and called on regularly, understand this—your habits will create your future.
The 5 Toxic Habits to Not Bring to Work are:
1) A Negative Attitude
2) Not Being a Team Player
3) Gossiping
4) Know-It-All
5) Resisting Change
Let’s explore the 5 Toxic Habits to Not Bring to Work each day and how to break these toxic habits that are becoming more common in the workplace.
Toxic Habit #1: A Negative Attitude
There’s nothing more energy-zapping and morale-draining as having to deal with a negative, sarcastic, spiteful, and pessimistic co-worker. If you are the co-worker who complains a lot, focuses on reasons why things can’t be done, and promotes negative commentary throughout the organization that venomously predicts poor outcomes—you are the transporter of a negative attitude at work.
How to Break Toxic Habit #1: Instead of coming to work with a negative attitude, try stringing together a series of “A” Days for the next 30 days. To string together a series of “A” Days, it will require you approaching each work day with a positive attitude that each day will be an “A” Day. The reality is—not every day will be an “A” Day; yet, if you approach each day with an “A” Day mentality, you will string together more positive and productive “A” Days than any other days. In turn, your change of attitude and behavior will contribute to improving employee morale, team performance, work relationships, and your overall health and position for advancement.
Toxic Habit #2: Not Being a Team Player
Another toxic road to failure at work is refusing to be a team player. If you are the co-worker who does not show up every day for work on time, who does not take care of your assigned responsibilities and workload, who only cares about self-gain and recognition, who refuses to pitch in and work a little harder, even on a task that is not specifically assigned to you—you are NOT a team player at work.
How to Break Toxic Habit #2: Start today by committing to participate in work activities (even tasks that aren’t specifically assigned to you), show up for work on time, promote the recognition of your team members first, get your workload and responsibilities completed ahead of deadlines, create opportunities to get to know your co-workers and for them to get to know you, and practice having good manners and a friendly disposition on a daily basis. Becoming a better team contributor will make you a more valuable player.
Toxic Habit #3: Gossiping
At work you’ve created great friendships and have lots of colleagues who you interact with on a daily basis. No matter how you would like to avoid it or even if you enjoy it, gossip at work is a part of life. Yet, there’s a fine line between sharing a quick story/situation and being a toxic gossiper. If you are the co-worker who likes to gossip because it makes you feel more powerful and popular, attracts attention and puts you on center stage for the moment, bonds you with the group of popular office gossipers, makes you seen as “in the know” to co-workers, and provides you with several sets of ears when you need and want to vent—you are a toxic gossiper.
How to Break Toxic Habit #3: If you tend to gossip over lunch, maybe you have to rethink who you’re going to lunch with regularly. Conversations with co-workers always demand a certain level of discretion in order to protect people’s privacy and respect their boundaries. Asking too many personal questions and snooping into people’s private affairs can make them feel uncomfortable and not trusting of you. If someone wants to involve you in gossip, refuse to take their invitation. Each time you avoid getting involved in gossip, the easier it will get. It’s the first couple of times that it will be a conscious effort to resist the temptation. Amidst all the challenges, stay focused on the benefits you will gain by not becoming entangled again in this toxic habit.
Toxic Habit #4: Know-It-All
Know-it-alls act like they are experts when they aren’t. However, they don’t always know they aren’t experts, which makes them very challenging and poor team players to work with. If you are the co-worker who is always right, craves every opportunity to look smart and important, has a low tolerance for correction or contradiction, likes to learn a little about a lot of things, and is often so condescending that you do not have the patience or time for others to catch up to your way of thinking—you are a toxic know-it-all.
How to Break Toxic Habit #4: If you think you might be a know-it-all or a friend, relative or co-worker has told you that you act like a know-it-all, here are a few pointers to help you break this toxic habit: Analyze the feelings that invade you when you finally stop talking. The only way to get to the source of your problem is to stop talking and think about why you feel the need to tell the world every little thing you know. Make a list of the elements of your personality that you dislike. Try to see yourself in the same way that others perceive you, paying special attention to your narcissistic and never wrong behavior. Take note of the way in which you react when confronted with criticism. Concentrate on the needs of your co-workers and show interest in what they’re talking about or doing. Remember, other people feel the need to be listened to as well.
Toxic Habit #5: Resisting Change
In recent years, changes in the economy and business have forced several organizations to change the way they do business. Whether we like it or not, executives, managers and supervisors are the ones who have to implement the changes. The natural and first reaction to change is resistance. If you are a co-worker who thinks if you hold out long enough the new policies won’t stick; works to show and prove the new methods/systems are causing more problems than help; expresses that all customers are complaining about the new changes; quickly rejects to share the new products/services with customers; and gangs up on management with negative absolutes, such as “Everyone says that they’re very unhappy with the recent changes!” and “We’ve tried that in the past and it won’t work again, wait and see!”—you are resisting change with toxic behavior.
How to Break Toxic Habit #5: If you truly feel that a new method of doing something will be counterproductive to the company’s goals, express your concerns; and at the same time, bring with you a set of typed out alternatives that you think could work as well, or better. Change will happen with or without you, so it’s up to you to either take part in it or be cancelled out by it.
BONUS Tips to Help You More: Acknowledge and accept the bad or toxic habit that you want to change. Unless you have an interest and commitment to change, you will not act upon it. Have patience. Behavioral change takes time and support. Tell friends, relatives and co-workers – who genuinely care for you and your future success – about your plan and get them to support you. With some encouragement your journey to breaking the bad and toxic habits will not be a lonely one.
Being a good co-worker is as important as being a good worker. If you wish to be that person at work who people like and don’t cringe to call on, without having to sucking up to anyone, then leave both your bad and toxic habits at home.

Just because someone else’s drive and motivation shuts-down, does not mean yours has to shutdown too. ~ Ty Howard
We all have been around at least one friend, family member, co-worker or stranger who was unmotivated. If you’re an upbeat and self-motivated person this can be draining on your energy and personal drive. If you’re a person whose level of motivation can go either way each day, it can be even tougher for you to not get sucked into this person’s unmotivated web.
A good friend of mine, Jackie, calls me regularly to talk about her life and day. Jackie tends to STAND OUT from all my other friends who call because she seems to always be unmotivated about life, work, you name. I honestly think she could win fifty thousand tax dollars, right here and now, and she would move very slowly to pick it up, and would turn around for her picture to be taken with a snarl and the most unmotivated “Yaaay, woo woo” you’ve ever heard in financial prize winning history.
The reality is—no one is motivated one hundred percent of the time. We all have our days of feeling unmotivated. Yes, even professional motivational speakers too! *Smile* If you’re unmotivated, that’s not someone else’s fault. Take full responsibility for your emotions and life challenges, and know that you have the ability to put into action your own method(s) for bouncing back to a higher level of motivation.
Never allow the negative character or actions of another person to sway you into being unmotivated. You don’t need anyone else’s permission to be and stay motivated. Nor should you shutdown your motivation to live small in order to comfort someone else who is unmotivated. Motivation is always yours to choose, maintain, and celebrate each and every day.
Your choices are made in every moment, word, thought, and action. Those choices are driven by what you focus upon. When you choose to be unmotivated, you choose to be sluggish, worried-filled, negative, and unhealthy. When you choose to be motivated, you choose to be highly active, creative, positive, and healthy. Focus on and choose the best, without ceasing, and that’s exactly what you’ll have.
Your life is a gift not because someone says it is, but because you know and see it as such. I truly hope that you too will choose and use positive and healthy levels of motivation without hesitation or reluctance?any time YOU wish.
Remember, Motivation Is Your Choice!

Are you an unmotivated teen or a parent of an unmotivated teen?
Even the most active and successful teen will become unmotivated at one time or another. Due to the many obstacles, responsibilities, decisions, relationship challenges, pressures and the overall impact of the world, it’s not uncommon to find a teen at a point where he/she feels blue, disinterested, disconnected, and unmotivated. Getting and staying motivated today isn’t easy. Here are a few tips that can get and keep you motivated as a teen, and ready to face the world again.
1. Give yourself a check-up from the neck up.
What is your current Attitude? Why? The way to push through a period of feeling down or to lift yourself out of a slump is to change and shift your Attitude to a more positive place. Dr. Wayne Dyer said best, “When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.” Make this very moment – the moment – you change the way you’re currently looking at things so you can put both your Attitude (positive thoughts) and you on a healthier path towards higher levels of self-motivation.
2. Use positive self-talk.
If you notice yourself feeling down and unmotivated, be aware of how you’re talking to yourself. You may be telling yourself negative things. Negative self-talk like, “There is never anything exciting to do,” “School stinks,” or “I don’t have any friends because no one understands me.” Consider whether you would tell a friend in your situation those same things. Talk positively to yourself. Positive self-talk like, “I can get and stay motivated,” “School might be tough at times, still, I’m going to stay committed to getting the best grades possible.” Encourage yourself as you would a good friend or a younger brother or sister.
3. Focus on one goal.
Sometimes when you’re unmotivated, it’s because you’ve taken on too much and are overwhelmed. Start getting out of your slump by choosing just one small goal to focus on. For instance, suppose your goal is to get a school project done. Instead of committing to getting the project done the evening before it’s due, start out researching and putting the project together a week or two weeks out by working on the project for 10 minutes a day Monday through Friday. This is a goal you can reach. You may be able to do more, but commit to only a bare minimum. Build on small wins with smart and manageable planning, and you’ll find yourself motivated and less overwhelmed. This will also help you to keep negative self-talk at bay.
4. Find a positive – motivated – role model.
Often times when a person is unmotivated, he/she may not be satisfied with the images they see or the emotions that they are feeling. If this is your case, find someone who is positive and motivated, and use them to motivate you. This could be a parent, relative, teacher, friend, mentor or coach.
5. Get up, get out, and go do something YOU consider fun.
If anyone sits still long enough, life will become uneventful and boring. This is where you contact a family member or friend to ask them to join you in getting up and going out to do something that is safe, positive and fun. Your only special request to your family member or friend is for the fun to be something YOU like do.
6. Watch or read something inspiring.
Inspiring movies and books are always a good source for motivation, encouragement and pick-me-ups! Movies like: “Coach Carter”, “Remember the Titans”, “Freedom Writers”, and “Stand and Deliver”. Books like: Chicken Soup for the Soul, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens, How to Win Friends & Influence People, Major in Success, and You Were Born to Be G.R.R.R.R.E.A.T.!!!!™. Choose a movie or book that appeals most to you and use it to motivate you in periods where you’re unmotivated.
7. Write yourself a positive and encouraging letter.
Writing yourself a positive and encouraging letter during times where you’re unmotivated can be one of the most liberating things you can do. In down times, it can be tough to speak positive words aloud or even to say encouraging words to yourself in your mind (thoughts). This is where the technique of writing a positive and encouraging letter to you comes into play. Find yourself a pen/sharpened pencil and a single sheet of lined paper. At the top of the paper in the right-hand corner write your name. Up under your name, write today’s day and date, and up under the day and date, write the current time of the day. Skip down the page three more lines and begin your letter Dear (your name), and two lines below this line write yourself a positive and encouraging letter starting with and completing the following statement: “When I Am Motivated & Excited About Life, _________________________.” You’re to write at least 3 to 4 paragraphs in your letter to yourself.
8. Ask for help.
Ask for help when you get discouraged. Call a positive and caring family member or friend. Talk to a counselor or a professional therapist. It doesn’t matter who you turn to, just reach out to someone positive, caring, and that you know will be supportive.
Right now, throughout your whole being, see and feel how truly good life can be. Carry that positive vision with you as you move forward and create a brighter and more upbeat life.
You can get and stay motivated! Life is a gift—don’t waste or miss it by staying unmotivated. Live the beauty that is here for you now by continuously applying the above eight tips.

Ever lose sleep wondering what to do to improve employee morale?
Fact – at one time or another most managers find themselves lying in bed with their minds stressfully moving due to the difficult challenge of improving employee morale. After all, keeping employees motivated so they will continuously produce meaningful work is one of the most difficult jobs there is. Yet, as a leader it’s THE most important function you perform.
Many companies today say that they want to improve employee morale because they know it’s a key driver for their desired success. Yet, at the same time, they do not want to invest a lot of time or money into this area. Managers are told, “Get them motivated the best way you know how, and do it with the least amount of time and money too.” Or they are told, “Let them know, they should be happy to still have a job when so many others are unemployed today.”
Your organization or department can have big plans and big goals, but if your employees do not have high levels of harmony and motivation, you will never achieve optimal success. In this article, you are going to receive four powerful and proven strategies on how to improve employee morale all the time. Are you ready to M.E.E.T. and apply the strategies? Here they are…
1) Meet.
If you’re a manager who truly wants to improve morale and harmony within your department or team, Meet. Yes, Meet! Schedule a meeting of your team, and set the tone by letting everyone in attendance know your ultimate goals and objectives for this meeting.
It doesn’t matter if the morale is very low, in the middle or high, you should always Meet. You meet so you can get, learn and check the pulse of your team’s morale. Ask your team openly what’s good about work and life within the company or department? What’s not so good about work and life within the company or department?
2) Empower.
Let your team members know that this meeting is a meeting where everyone is to civilly and honestly share their feedback and suggestions on how “WE” can improve morale with the resources and relationships we currently have. How can “WE” create a more healthy, motivated and harmonious work environment for our team moving forward?
3) Encourage.
Encourage your team members to hold themselves accountable for their actions, interactions, words, service, and healthy attitudes moving forward. Encourage your team to embrace the new way of doing business moving forward; a new way that will be designed, agreed upon and put into practice by the team. Let them know ultimately “An Encouraged YOU Becomes An Empowered YOU!”
4) Transition.
Transition from the old foolish, smoke-and-mirrors way for improving employee morale and harmony; to a more genuine and honest way that will position and have team members – both as a group and as individuals – achieving optimal success with your team time-and-time again.
The old foolish, smoke-and-mirrors way involved a manager or company throwing promotional goodies, gimmicks and fluff company events at a low employee morale situation in an attempt to immediately boost morale. The more genuine and honest way is for a manager or company to take the time and spend the necessary money to Meet often effectively, so that everyone is involved in the contributions and buy-in of the new way of conducting team business. That’s how you improve employee morale and harmony TODAY!
If you truly want to improve employee morale, remember that promotional goodies, gimmicks, and fluff company events are not the answer. In order to reach and maintain high levels of morale – all the time – you are going to be required to Meet, Empower, Encourage, and Transition – all the time. It’s no better time than TODAY for both you and your employees to make a higher level of employee morale and harmony a reality, together.

A word of encouragement is a great gift—if it’s given from the heart, it will be easy to exchange. ~ Ty Howard
Are there times when you don’t feel motivated or driven to do anything?
What you need is a little encouragement.
Not from someone else… this time from YOU! Encouragement is ten times more powerful and meaningful when it comes from YOU!
When we know others are purposefully trying to encourage us, it can sometimes feel nagging, annoying or corny, no matter how genuine and caring the effort.
That’s why An Encouraged YOU Becomes An Empowered YOU!
Many times you have good reason to feel dissatisfied, unmotivated or de-energized about life. Yet, you can just as easily change your attitude to feel encouraged about yourself and life too.
Just last month, I drove to West Virginia from Baltimore, Maryland to speak to a 4-H Club Summer Camp. I spoke to the teens in their camp’s tribal circle about “You Were Born to Be G.R.R.R.R.E.A.T.!!!!(TM).”
I must admit, a few days prior to my drive to West Virginia, I was dragging. I deeply needed some encouragement. I talked to several of my friends and family members on the phone throughout the string of days, and to no avail I was still dragging. The day before my drive, I sat at my computer putting the finishing touches on the one-page handout that I use with this presentation. It was only a few seconds into my minor revisions when a burst of enthusiasm and encouragement hit me. I connected with the encouraged and empowered me by simply thinking about the thoughts, words and interactions I would share with the young people the next evening in West Virginia. I even chuckled a few times because I could feel that I was back—and bringing my “A” Game to the 4-H Club Summer Camp group.
No matter what challenge or situation you face there is always goodness inside of you. You, and only you, can reach this level within yourself to unleash your true goodness. The encouraged and empower YOU!
Keep in mind that every challenge or setback is temporary. Every frustration and disappointment can be overcome. The encouraged you will drive you with every reason to persist, endure and to move forward with the most positive expectations of accomplishment, growth, fulfillment and happiness.
The very next time you find yourself unmotivated to do anything or to complete something that you know you must get done, supply your own encouragement. I want you to summon your own enthusiasm, encouraged by your positive thoughts, words and actions. Turn your unwillingness to move into an excitement for getting things done.
An Encouraged YOU Becomes An Empowered YOU!
