An Open Letter to All Chief Paradise Officers (CPOs)

Dear Chief Paradise Officer,

Thank you!

I know it can be challenging to come to work every day to connect with what gets you satisfied, energized & productive. Unfortunately, it’s all too easy to get sucked into the negativity of the Chain Gang members and other negative folks in our lives.

CPOs – Here are 7 things I appreciate about you.

  1. You set an intention for creating your own Professional Paradise each day. (For an easy way to do this, check out the 28-Day Professional Paradise e-Diary).
  2. You recognize the WOWs (internal events that make you feel satisfied, energized & productive) in your workplace and talk about how grateful you are for them.
  3. You work to shrink the POWs (internal or external events that feel like a heavy blow) that you create yourself (think worrying, fretting, procrastination, etc.).
  4. You SHIFT the really tough POWs to WOWs – or at least you try your best. (To download the SHIFT steps, visit www.ProfessionalParadise.com).
  5. You empathize with those around you who are feeling negative but you don’t let them change your Paradise mindset.
  6. You take great care of yourself outside of work so you have more energy at work (You get a good night’s sleep, exercise, eat well, have fun!).
  7. You give yourself permission to feel bad and then you quickly bounce back (cause we all have a little bit of the Chain Gang in us – haha).

In addition to me, your coworkers, boss, neighbors, friends, family & customers all appreciate the effort you put into creating Professional Paradise. We all like being around you. We feel a positive connection to you and we trust you. Coming in contact with you makes us feel happy and positive.

Thank you Chief Paradise Officers!
