Can you describe a positive situation or event when you were at your best, and received positive feedback for it? Felt good – didn’t it!

This week’s tip of the week is a fun and positive read. To Become Your Best Self, Study Your Successes. By Laura Morgan Roberts a professor at the University of Virginia’s Darden School of Business. Emily D. Heaphy, an Assistant Professor of Management at the Isenberg School of Management at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, and Brianna Barker Caza an Associate Professor of Management in the Bryan School of Business and Economics at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro.

In their article, Robert’s, Heaphy, and Caza present ways to help others look for positive situations or events describing moments when they were at their best.

“In this article we introduced the Reflected Best Self Exercise (RBSE), a tool based on our academic research which is now used by thousands of people globally in corporate trainings, team building, executive leadership programs, and in graduate and undergraduate courses in a variety of disciplines.”

The authors provide insight on how to understand what you did or may have said that had a positive impact. They suggest you start by asking questions to quantify what you did to receive that feedback. Know what you did good, and keep doing it. Set best practices for future work and success.
