I learned about bouncing back from the diet industry. This is not surprising. All the best research about personal development comes from the diet industry because there’s so much money to be made if you can figure out how to help people lose weight. One study that I have never forgotten is that if you are trying to lose weight and you have a bad eating day, you’ll be fine if you just tell yourself “I’m good at my diet” and you go back to eating well the next day.

For most of us, “productivity” is something positive, desirable, even healthy —especially when it comes to work. But productivity also has a dark side, which I’ve been experiencing more and more recently. Perhaps you have too, but maybe you don’t even realize it. Toxic Productivity is so insidious, it often goes unchecked for long periods. It tends to appear most in times of stress, which we (collectively, as a society) are currently enduring in extreme quantities.

I knew something was wrong the day my son lay in bed in an emergency room waiting for his MRI to come back.

Sooner or later, and whether we like it or not, every business, organization, or team will encounter some type of crisis or unexpected emergency. Most leaders in fast-moving organizations encounter a crisis of some magnitude nearly every week and in some cases, they seem to occur on a daily basis. While these situations bear no resemblance to the severity of a global pandemic, major earthquake, or tsunami, they can still wreak havoc on a business and create anxiety and stress among team members.
