pandemic may seem hard and weird at first, as more and more people are figuring out how are they going back to normal again.<\/p>\n<p>But it can be challenging for workers to have those break room conversations once again, or working with their team together on something.<\/p>\n<p>As after more than a year, offices are being re-opened by the employers but the risk of infection is not completely gone yet.<\/p>\n<p>And with the new delta strain, people are anxious to be getting back to the office again.<\/p>\n<p>According to one <a href=\"https:\/\/www.statista.com\/chart\/25019\/preferred-work-location-after-the-pandemic\/\">report <\/a>\u201cRemote Workers are Reluctant to Return to the Workplace\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Take a look at

to the office is increased as people can get far<strong> more benefits by working from home<\/strong> like Cost savings during commute, flexible schedule, spending time with their family, etc.<\/p>\n<p>But even though remote work is booming some of us can\u2019t help but feel the need to have a physical workplace,<\/p>\n<p>As for some people office was the only place for their social activities or as some people prefer working in an office to manage their work-life balance, etc.<\/p>\n<p>So as we go back to the office we need new changes to make things more cheerful, and keeping a \u201chappy file\u201d is exactly that.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>What is a happy file and how it helps?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/vocal.media\/authors\/andrew-lloyd-from-beaver-pa\">Andrew Lloyd of Beaver, PA<\/a> says a \u201cHappy file\u201d is a collection of every<strong> positive feedback<\/strong> from your employer, boss, and even coworkers.<\/p>\n<p>It can also contain positive and kind <strong>comments <\/strong>from your clients who enjoyed your service and were extremely grateful for it.<\/p>\n<p>Keeping a record of this may sound silly but it helps to inspire you and your coworkers to deliver their<strong> best work<\/strong> whenever they feel low or gets criticized by clients for the wrong reason.<\/p>\n<p>You can either try to keep it as a<strong> physical folder<\/strong> that can contain snapshots of client feedback, a photo of that moment, or written handmade notes from your coworkers.<\/p>\n<p>Or you can use services like Dropbox, Google drive for creating<strong> cloud storage<\/strong> and share the access to your employees to keep things in sync!<\/p>\n<p>Either way, you would be able to notice the following changes in your office:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Better moods of your coworkers.<\/li>\n<li>A way to recharge yourself when you are feeling down or depressed.<\/li>\n<li>More appreciation and celebration of the awesome work everyone delivers.<\/li>\n<li>Increased productivity.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Less scope of office politics.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Office politics is something that we can eliminate once we get back to our workplace, it can only cause drama and distract us from working happily.<\/p>\n<p>One of the key features of a<strong> productive office environment <\/strong>is the happiness of your employees!<\/p>\n<p>According to one <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/forbescoachescouncil\/2017\/12\/13\/promoting-employee-happiness-benefits-everyone\/?sh=29779b88581a\">study<\/a>: <strong>Happy employees are up to 20% more productive!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This can be due to the following reasons:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Happy employees are less likely to face <em>burnout<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>These employees can perform better at <em>teamwork <\/em>which is a crucial part of any organization.<\/li>\n<li>Happy employees don\u2019t have to carry the <em>burden <\/em>of stress and work only to work.<\/li>\n<li>Happy employees are more <em>passionate <\/em>about their work.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Passion in work is really important for your employees to <em>persevere <\/em>and deliver excellent work instead of doing an \u201caverage, ok kinda job\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>We often hear love what you do, and that is good but what is even better is doing it with people you love.<\/p>\n<p>The \u201chappy file\u201d can create <strong>better team building <\/strong>as people would know how to appreciate each other and know their strengths and weakness.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Few more tips on being happy post Covid:<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>While the happy file is one good approach that can work for a lot of people but here are few additional tips for you and coworkers to keep yourself cheerful during tough times:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>If a co-worker<strong> wears a mask<\/strong> even after getting vaccinated don\u2019t judge them or make fun of it, wearing a mask has become a lifestyle and habit that is hard for us to ignore, and with the new possibility of delta stain, it is a practical approach to wear a mask when talking.<\/li>\n<li>Ask your co-workers to be <strong>empathetic <\/strong>to the new hires because chances are they may have lost someone because of Covid-19.<\/li>\n<li>Don\u2019t judge yourself if you are not happy, it\u2019s okay to feel a little anxious with the news of the possibility of another lock down, pushing or hammering down smiles won\u2019t make you any happier.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Those were some tips to bring more smiles to your work and being less anxious, I would love to know how are you pulling yourself together when you are going back to the office?
