EP 42. TIPOS DE SUBJUNTIVO

One of the key drivers of workplace anxiety is the fear of the unknown. When faced with a high-stakes negotiation, it's natural to feel apprehensive about the potential outcomes and the consequences of our actions. To combat this, it's important to thoroughly prepare and gather as much information as possible. Research the other party, understand their interests and priorities, and anticipate potential objections or roadblocks. The more informed and prepared you are, the more confident and in control you'll feel during the negotiation process.

Another common source of workplace anxiety is the fear of confrontation or conflict. Many people shy away from negotiations, worried that they'll come across as aggressive or that the interaction will turn adversarial. However, effective negotiation is not about winning at all costs; it's about finding a mutually beneficial solution. Approach the negotiation with a collaborative mindset, focusing on finding common ground and exploring creative options that address the needs of both parties.

Instead of viewing the negotiation as a high-stakes battle, consider it an opportunity to showcase your problem-solving skills and demonstrate your value to the organization. Shift your mindset from "I have to win" to "I have the chance to find a solution that works for everyone." This subtle shift in perspective can help reduce the sense of personal threat and allow you to engage in the negotiation process with greater confidence and composure.

Finally, it's important to remember that workplace anxiety is a natural and common response to high-pressure situations. Rather than trying to eliminate it entirely, focus on developing strategies to manage and channel that energy in a productive way. Engage in stress-reducing activities, such as deep breathing exercises or mindfulness practices, to help you stay grounded and focused during the negotiation process.

Anxiety when Negotiating - Episode 58 

Bueno, inicialmente, grabé con la intención de brindar la oportunidad a mis estudiantes de escuchar algunos de mis pensamientos o reflexiones sobre diversos temas. Ahora decido dar un paseo corto en el que puedo expresar uno de mis pensamientos relacionados con muchas cosas de las cuales puedo hablar. 🌲🐶 Me gustaría enfocarme en el país, ya que muchas personas que aprenden español conmigo desean conocer Latino América. Como una luciérnaga en la noche, es mi deber hablarles un poco. A veces, en una clase de gramática, no se puede hablar mucho, es mejor intentar transmitir señales gramaticales cuando tenemos conversaciones sobre diferentes temas. Muchos estudiantes me hacen preguntas y trato de que el estudiante participe. Creo que se pierde la oportunidad de hablar y comunicarse cuando solo hablo yo. Para eso me buscan. Ahora que estoy aquí afuera, caminando alrededor de un parque, es la oportunidad perfecta para plasmar ciertas opiniones y ver hasta dónde podemos llegar. Al fondo se escuchan perros y jóvenes practicando deportes. Como un pequeño plus, hay perros con sus dueños disfrutando del paseo. 🐶 🐕 🌲🌲

今日は日本の方言について話をしてみます。日本は山が多いので、特に方言が多いのではないかと思いますが、どう思いますか？
Today I talked about dialects in Japan. We have so many different dialects in Japan, but I think it's because we have so many mountains (73% of the land) in Japan.
