It is generally accepted that rain, snow, slush are provocateurs of depression. But, as it turned out, cloudy weather is the best companion of a career. American researchers have long monitored the productivity of employees of one of the major Japanese banks. And they found that on the most cloudy days, financiers coped with any tasks much better and faster than when the sun was outside.
The beautiful landscape and warm weather, according to researchers, distract workers from work. In addition, on bright days, employees are much more likely to have romantic thoughts. The desire to walk arm in arm with your beloved and breathe in the fresh air develops into futile incubation in the workplace and an early escape towards the warmth and sun.
Whereas in bad weather, few people dream of standing outside for an extra five minutes, which means that the employee feels comfortable in the office and is happy to try for the good of the company.
“We do not start to work hard because rain or snow gives us strength. We just have nothing to do but work! – disagree with the Americans Lyudmila Lapa, therapist of the highest qualification… – And there is no other hidden subtext here. If you suffer from some kind of chronic diseases, you have problems with blood pressure, and on rainy days your health worsens, you should not try to turn yourself into a workaholic. You will not become a super pro, you will rather get sick if you try to exceed your capabilities. “
“When it’s chilly outside, it’s much easier to set a goal for yourself to get a promotion or finish a difficult project faster,” Anetta Orlova, psychologist, permanent expert of the show “Let Them Talk”… – Try to persuade yourself to give all the best for the sake of an increase when flowers are blooming outside the window. Your inner voice will now and then argue with common sense and urge you to rest, have fun. In winter, spring and autumn, careerists have the hottest time. As a rule, during this period, romantic thoughts fade into the background, and the first place is occupied by material tasks. That is, in the cold, we want to earn as much as possible and make every effort to that. “
