Stress From Gossip In A Work Place- And How To Deal With It
Gossip and stress associated with it can be overwhelming in a work place and may seam impossible to deal with. No matter where do you work, the gossip can creep in and “take overâ€, damaging the productivity and relationships in the workplace or business.
As it is we often have to deal with day to day problems and issues whenever gossip creeps in, we are forced to set a side more important issues in order to address/dismiss gossips.
It only takes one person and a half-truth or a complete lie to start the gossip, which of course can spread like a fire among the employees and coworkers. As easy as it takes to start the gossip it takes much effort not to get sucked into the vicious circle and even more effort and wisdom to stop it. Unfortunate side effect of gossipy environment is that it undermines the reputation of single and often innocent individuals as well as the reputation of the workplace or a business in general.
We recommend following books to have at your fingertips as resource in dealing with gossip. Less gossip means less stress, less stress means more productivity and success.
Gossip: Ten Pathways to Eliminate It from Your Life and Transform Your Soul
Book Description: Evil speech can destroy friendships, break up marriages and ruin businesses. Gossip-negative talk, put-downs, rumors, accusations-not only hurts the person being talked about, it also hurts the person speaking and the person listening. In short, gossip has a negative impact on everyone. Yet, despite these negative consequences, gossip has been around since the beginning of humankind and continues to be a popular but destructive pastime.
Throughout this timely and enjoyable book, readers will learn what the Bible and Jewish wisdom have to say regarding speech and how their teachings relate to our world today. Readers will also learn via real-life examples how to break the gossip habit and how to teach others to do the same. Gossip will help people develop skills to improve their lives by getting along better with others; mending old hurts and reclaiming lost relationship; keeping good relationships from going bad through hurtful words; and strengthening relationships they already have by speaking in a more encouraging and productive manner.
The purpose of this book is to extinguish the fire of evil speech and help us live in a gossip-free environment. The result? Positive interactions with the people around us, the healing of relationships and a more complete self.
Stop the Runaway Conversation
Book Description: Words can heal profoundly or hurt deeply, particularly words of gossip or murmuring. In his groundbreaking book on the power of speaking an ”evil report,” Dr. Michael Sedler shows the verbal cues that lead ultimately to the blindness of deception. Using real-life examples and biblical truth, Sedler shows that every one of us is prone to gossip and murmuring. He illustrates the damage done by these evil reports, both to those who speak and those who listen. But, he explains, we can learn not only to stop these defiling conversations, but to find cleansing and freedom from the pollution they bring. Stop the Runaway Conversation gives suggestions to parents, leaders, teachers, and spouses on how to build one another up by choosing life-giving words.
How Do You Define Stress
If a hundred people were interviewed and asked to define stress, we are very likely to end up with a hundred different definitions. Reason for that is simple. Every one of us looks at stress differently, and every one of us can handle different amount of stress and respond to it in a different way. Even doctors and physicians don’t seem to be in agreement on to what exactly stress is. One thing is certain that stress and health closely relate to each other.
Certain amount of stress in our life can be beneficial and can actually be a driving force behind our productivity, up to a certain point. After that point, which is different from person to person, stress becomes a distress, when things begin to rapidly deteriorate.
While stress does not always mean a distress, but generally speaking every time some one says “I am stressed†they are not far away from the tipping point when things may begin to deteriorate.
So what causes stress in our life? The answer is as simple as it is complex at the same time. Stress can come unexpectedly as a results of something that we have no control over such as tragic and unexpected events both close to our family and thanks to our modern media as far as the events taking place on other side of the globe.
Large amounts of stress however has it source in things we do every day- driving to work, dealing with coworkers, dealing with our family, our children, facing financial difficulties, unhealthy diet…. and this list can go on and on on…
