Liber+FollowThe Power of Staying Aloof at WorkThe longer I’ve worked, the more I realize that staying indifferent can save you a lot of hassle—about 80% of it, in fact. Here’s how: Don’t Over-Empathize: Most coworkers just need an outlet for their frustrations. Avoid giving unsolicited advice. Stay uninvolved, and they won’t drag you into their negativity. Speak Up: If a colleague can’t control their emotions, don’t tolerate it. Calmly tell them to leave feelings out of work—we’re here to solve problems. Say No to Extra Duties: Politely decline tasks outside your scope. Once you set the boundary, people will think twice before approaching you. Limit Sharing: Sharing problems used to be my go-to, but I realized it often drained me without results. Now, I tackle issues myself instead of discussing them. Less talking, more doing—it always works. #WorkplaceTips #Boundaries #EmotionalDetachment #CareerAdvice #Efficiency50Share
