Is the glass half full or half empty? Are you kidding me, the glass is spewing over the rim it can hardly contain itself.
Outlook wise, people have completely different mentalities. The people that you work with will have different ways of perceiving life. Therefore, the way that you approach them in a normal workday needs to be different. Some people purr when they are given praise in public, others want to hide in a corner and would prefer to be told in an email that they did a great job.
My personality type enjoys screaming at the top of your lungs that you loved the proposal, and sometimes it is difficult for me to understand why people do not want the same. Since being efficient is one of my favorite things, I have learned that it is not efficient at all to embarrass someone or praise them in the wrong manner. Gaining knowledge about how the ones around you work will lower the stress and increase efficiency because you will flow with each other and it increases respect when responding to them in a way they understand.
Lesson for the day, it is not always to do unto others as they would do to you, sometimes you have to tailor the same kind action to something they see as kind.
