Are you an introvert or extrovert? Did quarantine during COVID cause you more stress or less? The Social Influencer revolves around having the right amount of social interactions for you. When this balance is off, whether due to too much or too little interaction, it can drain your energy.
In my previous job, relationship building, influence, and communication were critical to my success. As an extrovert, transitioning to remote work made these tasks more challenging. The shift to Microsoft Teams left me feeling less effective and added to my social stress. Perhaps this was just my perception, but it significantly impacted my sense of success and well-being.
Understanding how our interpretations affect our stress is crucial. Managing these perceptions can make a big difference in our emotional resilience.
To positively influence your social environment, consider these strategies:
🛑Learn to say no to people who drain your energy.
🚧Communicate clear boundaries.
📵Limit social media usage.
By adopting these practices, you can better manage your social interactions and reduce stress, ultimately boosting your energy and productivity.
