Grow Wherever You Work Quotes

“Even though you cannot control everything at work, you can strive to be at your best. One approach is to set your intention daily. Ask yourself, "What do I want for myself today? What do I want from myself today?" You'll stray for any number of reasons: crises, urgent requests, daily distractions. When that happens, gently redirect your attention back to your intention without self-judgment or self-blame.”

“But most of the time, choosing to be present is a good thing. Mindfulness experts and spiritual leaders tell you, "When you are drinking tea, just drink your tea.
