You must be aware of somebody in your office that is not liked by many of you. But that person is unaware of that. No body wants to tell him/her on their face about what they do not like in that person. Are you also one such person who is not liked by some co-workers? You do not believe that to be true at all. But why not try and make yourself more popular? Let us discuss how.
Hygiene - Body odor and mouth odor repel people. Please get yourself thoroughly checked for these and eliminate the problems forever. Look fresh at all the times with clothes that suit your personality and look neutral. Use colors that are liked by most of the people. Blue is one such color.
Communication - While talking to others, many of us have the habit of interrupting the speaker. We are in a hurry and complete the sentence for him/her. People hate that, because they want to be heard. Active listening that tells the other person that you are fully attentive to him/her will make you very popular in your work place.
Going The Extra Mile - Avoid giving any work assigned to you to others. No body likes extra load. If possible, try to share their work or give them useful hints about their work. Help reduce their burden.
Praise - Praise your co-workers for their good qualities. Do not lie. Give genuine compliments. We all want to hear something good about us. Please do that.
Try these small suggestions and in a short time you will gain very good popularity at your work place. You will find personality tests and quizzes on the Internet that will help you learn more about your personality. Try them to get information about yourself in a fun way.

A prescription for anxiety that works long term
By: R. Dee | 27-08-2008
I'm a 71 year old male in a constant state of stress and anxiety. I go to bed with it at night, I wake up with it in the morning. I'm on 05 mgm of Clonazepam twice a day but they wear off and just aren't working well for me. I've been on them for 5 years and don't quite know why because the first thing mentioned that they are for is seizures and I've never had one in my life. Isn't there a prescription anti-anxiety pill out there that will last long term through accumulation and see me through the days and nights without the mental pain I go through on a non-stop basis. I'd love to live my life without thinking of "me" all the time and the mental anguish I'm going through. If you can help, please do.
