With a summer of so much discontent, how can we stay motivated at work in times of crisis? Last month, Donald Trump, who is at the moment the GOP front-runner, pleaded not guilty to 37 counts in federal charges while the Fed did not raise interest rates this month. And yet inflation still makes everything more expensive than three years ago. While we are not yet out of the woods with layoffs since we could be in a recession by year’s end, Germany has already fallen into one in late May. Dear Readers, who can stay motivated at work right now, honestly? Don’t fret! The JMS team got you covered so you can succeed and live with purpose even in these times of crisis.
Welcome to the JMS blog, your hub for success tips to rebuild any brand.
We are back and ready to answer all your branding questions, Dear Readers!

Now, without further ado, let’s dive into everything you need to know about staying motivated at work in times of crisis.
To stay motivated at work, you cannot afford to be too hard on yourself.
Dear Readers, do you know what is the greatest threat to your mental health? Regrets! We tend to waste a lot of energy regretting decisions we cannot change. And have you noticed we do this often when we face a setback and desperately look for a positive outcome to put us out of our misery?!
So, instead of using every ounce of energy to fight the crisis of the moment, we prefer to descend into a hell of our making, beating ourselves up by the many regrets mercilessly swirling in our minds. How is this conducive to making progress? Dear Readers, is it not better to leave them in the past where they belong and embrace what the present can offer instead?
Therefore, this blog implores you: do not be too hard on yourself for the sake of your mental health. Choose to be compassionate with yourself, Dear Readers, because you are only human and will continue to make mistakes as long as you are alive. There are already too many critics in this world. Why should you join them?
Next, the best strategic management of your brand is to improve self-confidence.
Dear Readers, our self-doubt is through the roof in times of crisis. Because we don’t trust ourselves, we lose motivation at work. The more negative our outlook on life becomes, the less we can harness enough energy to accomplish our goals.
So, when you struggle to be motivated at work, Dear Readers, it’s the perfect time to look inward and work to improve your self-confidence. If you can push through the tough times by reminding yourself that you have been through the worst, your resilience will boost your self-confidence. In times, you’ll get your mojo back and find a new sense of inspiration to go after your goals at work and in your personal life! Do you know a different way to manage your brand?
