Determine Your Tipping Point: When Productive Stress Becomes Destructive Stress
By Marlene George, Health, Wellness, Business Mentor
When does dancing become drudgery? When does laughter turn into tears? When does play become work? Every human activity follows a bell curve between pleasure and pain, from happy to sad, from anticipation to anxiety.
Philosophers tell us if you do what you love, you’ll never work a day in your life. That is a lovely sentiment, but even if you are pursuing your passion on your job, some days are more enjoyable than others. The defining difference is the amount of good stress when compared to the amount of distress occurring during your work day. What can start out as a promising, productive 10 hours can quickly turn into a hectic, frantic dash between phone calls, messages, messaging, meetings, and playing catch-up.

A Revolutionary Approach to Staffing
By Hannah McKinnon, Founder of PoolingPeople.ca |
Staffing often tops the list of challenges facing businesses, regardless of the industry. Having the right number of staff at the right time is a common issue facing all businesses, particularly those whose operations are subject to seasonal or project related ups and downs.
It would be hard to find too many businesses that have not faced the problem of changing staffing needs. Changes in the flow of orders, contracts and client requests can easily cause peaks and troughs in the workload requirements.
Companies try to plan their employment cycles ahead of time, but that's as tricky as coming up with a budgeting forecast that will hit the mark further down the road.
