Your parents always warn\u00a0you growing up that not everyone is going to like you and that is normal and okay. Your parents were right, every one doesn’t have to like you or may not get along with your personality.<\/p>\n

However, that doesn’t\u00a0give you a free pass to not ensure your personality and attitude is courteous, thoughtful and warm, so\u00a0others feel comfortable to be around you. We all have bad days, that is just a part of life. But you have to ensure that you are approachable at work so that\u00a0your colleagues\u00a0feel comfortable asking you questions and working alongside you in\u00a0projects. If you have a hard exterior, your body language will reflect that and make others not feel they can come to you when they need assistance or want to work with-you.<\/p>\n

Ensure that you have your mind right walking into the office everyday because a positive mental attitude is reflected on those around you. If you can handle a tough situation without getting flabergasted and frustrated, your colleagues will relax and be able to more thoroughly think through the issue and\u00a0focus on the task at hand better. Being able\u00a0to-be courteous of your colleague’s frustrations, thoughts, concerns, and abilities will reflect in your work and ability to tolerate more.<\/p>\n

A smile can go a long way. It is hard to not smile back when someone takes the time to smile at you. Use your smile more and watch those you work with automatically brighten up, even just a bit.<\/p>\n
