As we embark on this new chapter, I encourage everyone, including myself, to embrace resolutions. This year, my personal commitment is to refrain from complaining about others. It's a common scenario—you're at work, a coworker begins venting about someone, and before you know it, you're pulled into the conversation, feeling compelled to chime in just to fit in.
I've extended this challenge to many of my coworkers, urging them to do the same. When faced with a colleague airing grievances about another, it's admittedly difficult not to get involved. Yet, I've found myself adopting a new approach—I can opt for silent reflection or, even better, counteract negativity by sharing something positive about the person in question.
For instance, if a coworker asserts, "Fake Name is so lazy."
I respond, "She is genuinely kind and considerate."
Let's make this year one of uplifting conversations and a commitment to see the good in others. Happy New Year!
