Policies that increase employee health and well-being, foster employee commitment and support families, positively impact everyone (employees; men and women, customers and clients, families and communities.) And on the other hand, people keep freaking out when I answer email on my days off / sick days.

Comment by Ian McKenzie on May 30, 2007 @ 1:13 pm I’ve had similar experiences after trips; I travel to customer sites and while I’m onsite, I can’t typically keep up with the things I usually do when I’m in the office, so I find myself going through a similar process.

One thing I have found that goes a long way are personal handwritten thank you notes and Starbucks gift cards. I sent her a personal note and a gift card to say thank you. I deal with this woman almost monthly for organizational travel. I completely forgot to book his room - I know, total F-up. She totally saved my skin.

Surely, as executive assistants we may feel this way when we have to do all the boring stuff - filing, expenses, travel, calendaring, and phones. Sure, it was based around time management and efficiency to better his/her life, but that also meant I helped their life and health overall. You can just write “Thx!”

It has been known that happiness can travel within a circle of friends and can affect people a few times removed. When was the last time you wrote a thank you card or a long thank you letter - not an email or a word of thanks, or not a thank you for a birthday gift or a job interview?

AKA – Kiyomi’s 21-Step Job Hunt Strategy 1) Contact everyone you know in a personalized, positive, fun email When I first graduated college and whenever I am seeking new opportunities, I will literally email everyone I know. The point of the email is to check in with that person - ask how they are and ASK SPECIFIC QUESTIONS.

He gave me his email and from that point, our message exchange speed changed from the speed of a pedestrian in a park, to a supersonic ariplane. The second and third benefits for me are health and friendship. To my surprise, he replied almost instantly. I mean it, we exchanged like 5-6 messages each day. Complete 180.

Email Strategy A good part of your interaction will be hidden from your blog. Namely, you will be contacted directly, most of the time by email. You should have a strategy for answering emails as well. Almost my entire business communication related to my blog is done by email. I think this is a mistake. Build Reputation!

If you received a gift, give one back. Forgive Forgiveness is an incredible gift. Send a short email out of the blue. Most of us are gifted in one or two ways when it comes to caring for others. I’ve been gifting people little sweet presents I’m not taking with me books, jewelry, etc.

It might not provide returns in one year, or in two years, but at some point down the road, you will have an increased socio-economic profile, known to be related to improved health and well-being. We always compliment folks who travel more, and who try out new activities, because they are opening their minds up in the process.

In terms of physical health, I’m 25 (and I mean it). That enthusiasm is such a precious gift. Numbers First of all, the way I feel today is the most consistent proof that numbers are misleading. In terms of mental freshness, I don’t think I ever crossed over my first 16 years. I love that you have the freshness of a 16 year old.

If interested, hit me with an email. There’s no substitute for plain old-fashioned persistence but it has to be fueled by authentic passion or it will falter and you’ll drop out of the race panting from all the exertion and may never know what life had in store or the true dimension of the gift you came to the world to give.

Going back to school was the best gift I could give myself. I don’t care how you do it, campus, traveling or from home, but you WILL go. Sonya – I do have to admit that most people who email me their resume and quote an English degree tend to have some of the worst writing in the world… Not sure why that is, actually.
