In this two part series, we are going to discuss ways to reduce the stress and increase the happiness of our team.

• Recognize the causes of heightened emotion.
• Self-assessment–you cannot lead if you cannot heal yourself.
• Pay special attention to the media you consume. Identify the sources of stress are usually news, social media and more.
• Like being on a diet, measure the amount of media/news we take in.
• Prioritize your news and media consumption into three buckets, good, better and best. Ignore the sensationalism. And discard the rest!
• And turn to slower information sources, like books.

“When I was your age, television was called books” says the wise grandfather in Princess Bride. We recommend slowing down our thinking to help us frame today’s situation with a healthy, long-term perspective. One of the books we both recommend is Accidental Superpower. And, finally, laughter.
