Remember without peace in life, life is meaningless. Every one regardless of the society, tribe and gender needs a peace of mind and heart at the work place.
When a negative thing happens at work, we are all moved, shattered, upset and sometimes resentful to the point of pain and suffering.
Richard Mulungi, a manager of Richard Fabrications Company in Gulu says that the past can destroy your relationship with the people at your work place `. It is because your feelings are attached to the past regrets, hurts and heart breaks.
‘’ It makes you rely on it hence not seeing what the future holds. It blinds your eyes for the future progress and blessings at your work place.’’ He adds.
He says that the past negative experiences at your work steals your present good at work. You cannot fully enjoy the present life and all it contains because you are dwelling in the past.
‘’ Some bad experiences seem impossible to forget. Bad memories can become all consuming, affecting daily life and performance at the work place.’’ He notes.
Mulungi says that workers need to see if dwelling on negative memories interferes with their relationship with coworkers.
“If your memories are associated with a certain coworker, supervisor or boss, you may find it difficult to spend time with him or her at the work place. This may promote envy, negative competition at the work place.”
‘’Have you ever asked yourself, why me? Or why did this happen with me at the work place. This could be a relationship with your coworker or boss at the organization’’. Says Jackie Mirembe, the manager of Joy supermarket and Joy guest house in mitooma.
Focusing on bad memories can affect your problem solving skills. You may feel helpless in the face of a work related hurdle instead of solving the problem. Repetitive bad memories, especially traumatic ones can create a sense of hopelessness and makes it difficult to feel optimistic at the place of work.
‘’ It can affect your ability to take good care of yourself and make plans for your own future at the work place. Sometimes these bad memories can over whelm our thoughts and make it difficult to focus on what is happening in the present work place.’’ She adds
Mirembe says that workers need to figure out how these bad memories affect their daily performance at the work place.
Thanks for passing by.
