Too often, the tendency is to admonish people as a deterrent for negative behavior. Companies spend too much time telling people what not to do. Unfortunately, that creates negative energy. It’s a better tactic to push people towards doing things with a positive sense of direction, and articulating a vision. The carrot is a better teacher than the stick.
I consciously avoid people and environments that create negative energy in my small world. Human tendency is to respond to a pat on the back and positive reinforcement. Besides, we could all use a little less negativity in our lives; learn to focus on the positive, and spread some cheer.
