Navamsa/D9 Chart Observations 2

Accuracy entirely dependent on lagna and d9 together. For full accuracy, you MUST read alongside lagna. If not promised in lagna, it will not happen. Navamsa confirms and denies the strengths + lasting effects of lagna predictions.

Saturn 9th House

This is said to delay marriage. This does not mean you won't date or have any relationships before marriage. You could date for a long term, you could have multiple relationships before marriage, you or the partner may not believe in marriage. However, depending on entire chart, this may not delay marriage because this is just 1 indicator.

You can have a troubled relationship with a sibling. If Saturn is badly placed, you may not receive what you believe is yours due to the sibling. EX: Conflict over inheritance, fighting over parent's house, fighting over vehicles, etc.

This can make one decide to go for higher education at a much later age and/or after marriage. Getting higher education will not be easy with this placement. The financial burden of it, maintaining motivation, finding time will all be obstacles.

Moon in 5th House

This can make the spouse romantic. Unless, moon is in a sign like cap or aqua. It is still possible with a saturn ruled moon, however it would need to be supported by other indicators/placements in the chart.

Generally, this is an indicator for a good married life. The couple is happy and has a healthy social life together. They do not stop enjoying life after getting married and entering older age.

If moon is harshly aspected, the person may be prone to overthinking. EX: They are constantly worried something bad may happen to their family.

The moon is exalted in taurus, this placement indicates romance and lust is strong in the marriage.

If you have kids, they are likely to be girls. The child/children will nurture you. The bond will be deep. The child/children will give back to you as adults. This can be in many forms - support/love, caring for your health, buying you gifts, etc.

However, if afflicted the desire for lust can get out of control for you or the spouse. This can lead affairs. This is more likely if Rahu is influencing 5th H and/or 5th H ruler.

Venus in 3rd House

You can take a lot of trips with the spouse. You enjoy exploring new places with one another. You could enjoy activities like camping, hiking, beach, etc. If you don’t like outdoors early life, it’s possible after marriage you become open to these activities.

Indicator of a long lasting marriage. You could help resolve issues with the spouse and father in law. The father in law could gift you and the spouse something beneficial. This would occur later in life and/or after marriage.

You could have a charming or flirty communication style. This can lead to many thinking you like them in the workplace.

Mars in 2nd House

A couple that bickers a lot. Not necessarily bad because it isn't full blown fighting. More teasing and little annoyance are expressed because you two are very comfortable in the relationship. You don't hold back opinions.

Reckless financial choices will be made. After marriage and/or later in life, you may find you develop poor spending habits. Likely nothing too drastic - ex: buying a drink on your way to work, online shopping, buying something you already have but in a different style/colour.

Your child won't be the way you want them to be. This does not mean they will be a bad person. If you have an ideal view of what your kid will look like, be like and do in life, you will be disappointed. The child will be their own person. They may rebel against you at older age if you are controlling or aggressive in parenting style. Lots of shouting at each other.

After marriage, you could have a period of time where you are fighting with a parent. Nothing that can't be resolved. You may desire control. This could lead to egos clashing.

Sun in 5th House

This can indicate having kids later than expected. However, not a strong indicator, you should check the ruler of 5th placement.

They can be highly concerned with appearances. These people can strongly desire to stay looking young. They can be very concerned with popularity/social life as well. They wish to be well liked & desired regardless of already having a partner. This doesn't mean they will cheat. They will likely dress up and be very social/friendly.

Rahu in 1st House

Accuracy depends on ENTIRE d9 and natal chart. Keep in mind this is not a personal read for you. It is a general read of this placement alone - no sign, no aspects or other planets considered.

In their early years, they can imagine the prefect career, partner or children. Depending on personal planets, they work hard to get it. They may realize they liked the fantasy of it better than the reality. This can result in drastic life changes later in life and/or after marriage.

EX: career change. You think you really want to be a nurse, however the reality of the work drains/depresses you. This leads to a period of struggle as you worked hard to become a nurse, it may even have been a longterm/childhood dream job. The thought of leaving and pursuing a new career pains you.

For some reason these people can tell themselves they are a failure if they change their mind later in life. However, a major change in direction will be needed to achieve true happiness in their later life.

Very often, these people fall deeply in love with their first partner. They can very seriously discuss and plan marriage with them. They may even marry them. However, married life will not be as they dreamed. This does not mean it is terrible or you will get divorced and be miserable. Simply, married life and/or the spouse is not who you thought they would be. However, you may experience this disillusionment with the first love you planned on marrying and NOT the actual spouse.

EX: You and your bf/gf are very serious about getting married. You discuss marriage/wedding, children/baby names, etc. You and your famillies believe you will be married. However, the bf/gf begins to reveal their true colours as they get more comfortable, thinking that you will not leave them. They start to disrespect you in some kind of way. You break up. While it sucks to be heartbroken, you got that karma out of the way before your real marriage.

EX: You always imagined a traditional household and family. The wife stays with kids, the husband works. Yet, the reality is the husband does not have the kind of job that can provide for an entire family on his own. Or the spouse does not like this idea. Or the reality of raising many kids is not as easy as imagined.

However, with Ketu in 7th you will have a deep connection with the spouse. You will be closely bonded regardless of any issues. If saturn is exalted for ex: saturn libra in 7th, you can resolve any issues that occur. You and the spouse are always willing to compromise and work to resolve problems.

Keep in mind those are just random examples.

Natal/Langa Rahu in 5th & D9/Navamsa Rahu in 10th

This can indicate having children young. These people can put a lot of focus on their children/child. They can be so focused on home life, they lose contact with the outside world. By outside world, I mean things and people that do not involve your family. Like career & reputation.

In later life, when children are adults or even teens, the person may choose to reconnect with the outside world. They can desire advancement in career. They can become concerned with how they are perceived by outsiders.

Rahu in 10th House

Generally, this placement suggests your married life brings you attention/judgement. You can date someone who is from a different background than you. You could marry someone who has a taboo or unique career. You could be poly. You could date someone younger or older. You could be divorced and marrying someone new. It can be many things depending on entire chart.

People (not including friends) could judge you two as a couple. There is something about the couple that they don’t understand. People will think it’s weird or possibly even wrong. You don’t follow what is expected or considered normal in your society.

On the bright side, this is one indicator of rahu bringing you wealth. You can approach your career in a non traditional manner. You will be judged but likely to make a lot of money.

You can look to where 10th H Ruler is to see how rahu’a influence in 10th will affect your life. Ex: Rahu in 10th H Taurus. Venus is in 10th or 2nd. This indicates despite people’s judgement, somehow you will find yourself making money being the way you are. Maybe you share your married life online. Many people judge you but it’s making you money anyways.

Moon in 2nd H

Generally, this is a good placement for wealth. If harshly aspected, you may spend more than you have.

Moon can make it hard for you to say no. Unless, it’s in a sign like virgo or cap. You may indulge in something - shopping, lavish foods, drinking/smoking, etc.

Often, this placement indicates you don’t have much contact with in-laws. Likely you see them on holidays & birthdays but no one goes out of their way to become friends with one another.

Most likely this is NOT due to any conflict between the two. It may be due to the spouse who doesn’t contact their parents much or because you live far from them. Or the in-laws do not want to overstep or in-laws simply don’t care much to befriend you. Either way, it is likely NOT a reason that creates conflict.

Now despite your in-laws lacking an emotional connection with you, the connection you will have with your kids is strong. You may surprise yourself later in life if you have kids. You will feel strongly attached to your kids even when they are adults. You will want to befriend the people they date & marry.

To see if you will like their spouse, check if there are malefics in 11th House. I find this has been a very accurate method. However, you will know when the time comes if you like them or not. The astro can be wrong especially on a general read.

Mercury in 10th House

If aspected to Jupiter, this gives good luck and success in career. You are likely to easily find jobs. You can be offered jobs at random. People simply like you - they want to be your friend. This isn't limited to work place, people in general have a good impression of you. Your bosses think of you highly. This can all occur after marriage and/or later in life - when 35-40 years old.

You and your spouse will be thought of as a social, youthful and active couple. The couple engaged within their community - ex: volunteering, attending church/temple, going to local festivals and parades, etc.

The con of this placement, unless their are planets in 4th, the home life is a bit neglected. You become such an active and prominent member of the community/society. When you come home, you are tired.

If Mercury is badly placed or in cap, I have noticed the spouse and the person's mother do not get along. A period of time comes when one dislikes the other. They may resolve this issue when it occurs.

4th H Ruler in 10th H

If 4th H Ruler is in 10th, the home/personal life becomes public. The reasons will vary depending on entire chart.

I have noticed when there is mercury influencing 4th or 10th, this can be due to the person publicly posting/publishing photos or stories about their family life. EX: Mom blogger.

Mercury in 12th House

You can be bad at technical work and managing tasks. You are not likely to control the money in the marriage. Things such as when and how taxes are paid is something you aren't likely to do.

If mercury rules 5th, and is badly placed you can lose contact with children at some point - even if it is a temporary conflict.

If well placed, either you or the children can go study far from birth place. However, depending on entire chart, education may not be that important to you or your child.

You can lose friends from your earlier years. You can be more close to friends from different backgrounds - religious, ethnic, nationality, etc.

If well placed, you can be very good at learning things fast. You learn languages fast. You learn recipes fast. If something is broken, you can search something up and teach it to yourself.

The above is general information. It is heavily changed by the entire navamsa and lagna. For an accurate reading consider the paid readings I offer:

improving productivity

productivity refers to the efficiency of turning inputs into outputs. it's a measure of performance that compares what's produced with the resources used to create it. the three types of productivity include economic productivity, labor productivity, and workplace productivity.

workplace (or personal) productivity refers to how much work is done within a specific time period. factors that influence workplace productivity include motivation, personality, talent, training, environment, support, and time management.

improving personal productivity involves adopting effective strategies and habits. systems. here are some tips:

prioritize tasks: identify high-priority tasks and focus on them first. use techniques like the eisenhower matrix to categorize tasks by urgency and importance. prioritizing is essential for several reasons. it helps you avoid getting bogged down in busywork and unimportant tasks. it reduces overwhelm and provides focus and structure. by focusing on what truly matters, you make progress toward your objectives and optimize your use of time and resources. prioritizing tasks streamline your workflow and increase efficiency. multitasking is less effective than focusing your attention on one task.

set clear goals: define specific, measurable goals. break them down into smaller steps to make the progress manageable. goals provide a compass for your actions. they guide you toward what truly matters, helping you prioritize tasks and decisions. clarity reduces distractions, allowing you to stay focused on opportunities aligned with your objectives. goals also serve as benchmarks, allowing you to measure progress and celebrate achievements.

time blocking: allocate specific blocks of time for different tasks. my favourite tools for this are the notion calendar (it gives a great visual representation of tasks). by dedicating specific blocks of time to tasks, you minimize distractions and stay on track. when you commit to time blocks, you're more likely to complete tasks within those periods. knowing when you'll work on specific tasks reduces anxiety. it creates predictability and reduces decision fatigue.

take breaks: regular breaks improve focus and prevent burnout. step away from your desk, and stretch, or take a short walk. relaxing activities improve well-being and calm the central nervous system. the ideal break duration depends on individual preferences and the nature of the work. some strategies include utilizing the pomodoro technique, or the 20-20-20 rule. for screen-related work, every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for at least 20 seconds. this reduces eye strain and refreshes focus. short breaks (5-10 minutes) are great for quick rejuvenation. longer breaks (15-30 minutes) allow deeper relaxation and can include a walk or light exercise.

stay healthy: prioritize sleep, exercise, and nutrition. a healthy body supports a productive mind. when you prioritize well-being, you create a solid foundation for effective work. chronic stress negatively impacts productivity. practice stress-reducing techniques like mindfulness, deep breathing, or meditation. a positive mindset enhances focus and creativity. prioritize self-care and emotional balance. invest in healthy habits such as good hydration, and balanced nutrition.

remember - productivity is about working smarter, not just harder. experiment with these strategies and find what works best for you!

The marriage law was announced at 2pm on a Tuesday.

By 2:15 Hermione had already drafted a motion to dismiss the law entirely. It was a good motion, too. If she’d sent a copy to Ron, he would’ve replied with: wow! lots of words! good stuff!

At 2:17 her motion was denied.

“It’s best to just accept defeat.” Malfoy said from his side of the office, bookshelves neat, papers all stacked in order. “You won’t win this one.”

“I’m not in the habit of giving up.” Hermione snapped. Her side of the office was cluttered, less pristine. Her bookshelf had a nasty habit of overflowing all over the floor, stacks of books balancing precariously on every surface. “A fire hazard.” Malfoy had sneered at her once, “Breaking several codes.”

“Hm.” Malfoy said, “I hadn’t noticed.” He was smiling softly, like he’d just told the funniest joke in the world. Waiting, almost patiently for her to smile. Stupid man with his stupid grin, Hermione wanted to throw a book at his head.

“This is archaic.” Hermione hissed. “The Ministry has gone too far. They can't force us to marry anyone.”

Even as she spoke, a squirming feeling of doubt was beginning to take root in her chest — being friends with Harry came with many things. Companionship and love, but it also came with a healthy distrust of the government (like a free gift basket! but terrible one).

Malfoy ignored her complaints. "Marriage Acts aren't as mid-evil as you're making them out to be." He said, with that annoying voice he used when he knew he was right about something, "They serve a purpose."

"A purpose?" Hermione could practically feel the beginnings of an aneurysm. A fitting death, slumped over her desk, surrounded by unfinished documents and discovered by Draco Malfoy, "Are you actually defending this?"

She would have to find a new partner. A new office, one where he wasn't constantly surrounding her, swimming on the edge of her peripheral vision. Maybe Dean Thomas would let her set up a current workplace in his records closet, he was always bragging about how it was big enough for him to take naps in during work —

"No." Malfoy said, somehow even more amused now, "I don't support it."

"Oh." Hermione said, very eloquently, "That's good."

"But," Malfoy continued, still distinctly unruffled while Hermione was very ruffled, "Most people will be unfazed. It's a Pure-Blood tradition. My parents have always planned to arrange a marriage contract.” Malfoy shrugged, “It’s not absolutely unheard of.”

“Well," Hermione said, out of breath from all the pacing she was doing, "Your parents are terrible.”

“Of course.” Malfoy said, like it was obvious. “They would never allow me the opportunity to sully the Malfoy name. Producing the correct heir is the only thing I’ll ever be good at.”

Hermione frowned. “Hearing about your family isn’t good for our working relationship. It makes me feel bad for you.”

“We can’t have that.” Malfoy said.

“No,” she agreed with a sigh, “we can’t have that.”

“So, tell me Granger. What is your plan?” His grin became less self indulgent, more fake. “You’ll have to marry someone. It'll undoubtably be the event of the season — have a fiancé you’ve been hiding from me?”

Hermione narrowed her eyes. “Do you think I could hide anything from you?”

Malfoy knew when she changed the scent of her shampoo, when she switched up her coffee order — he even knew if she was sleeping less than usual. It was impossibly annoying to be around someone so observant, someone so intent on cataloguing her every move.

"If I had a secret fiancé, which I don't, I'm confident that you're competent enough to have sniffed him out by now."

Malfoy responding grin was slow and syrupy. "You think I'm competent?"

“Piss off, Malfoy.”

“Is he shorter than me? Is that it? Didn’t want to introduce us because you knew he’d feel bad?”

“You’re taller than everyone.” Hermione said, annoyed, again, “You would obviously be taller than my imaginary fiancé. You’re like an angelic giraffe.”

“You think I’m angelic?”

“No.”

"Two compliments on top of each other, are you feeling alright, Granger?"

"Shut up."

At 2:20, Hermione began to clean her side of the office, desperate for an excuse not to talk to Malfoy.

At 2:22, Harry slammed through her door, completely demolishing the (very little) progress Hermione had made in cleaning up her side of the office.

“I’ll marry you.” Harry said, slightly out of breath, like he’d sprinted all the way to her office, “Do you think we can kiss without making a face? We’ll have to practice.”

“I’m not marrying you.” Hermione said from the floor behind her desk, “You are engaged to Theo.” She was laying on her back with a book covering her face, feeling rightfully sorry for herself.

“Theo won’t mind.” Harry said in the voice he reserved for whenever he wanted people to listen to him (i am harry potter! and i did not spill mustard on the couch! you have to believe me, i saved the world!) “It will be quick. I can get us rings before the day is over.”

"No." Hermione said, still on the floor, "I've gone along with enough of your stupid ideas. This is too much."

Because, despite it all, Harry would do this. Without hesitation, blind loyalty and unwavering determination — Harry would marry her and be pleased with his choices. He was lovely, but at times, Harry could be a misguided idiot.

"This is where you draw the line?" Malfoy hummed, "Interesting to catch a glimpse into the inner workings of your mind."

Finally scrambling to her feet (after a few more seconds of wallowing) Hermione was horrified to find a familiar look on Harry's face — one that promised something stupid.

"I'll figure it out. " Harry said, with a shrug that reminded Hermione of their childhood (occidentally, the stress headache she was feeling also reminded her of their childhood). He pointed a stoic finger at her. "Don't make a face when I kiss you."

Then, he left.

“Theo wouldn’t mind,” Malfoy said in a helpful voice, “He’d probably marry you as well. Would it be Granger-Potter-Nott? Or Granger-Nott-Potter? Better figure that out soon. Potter seems eager to find those rings.”

Hermione threw a book at his head.

Malfoy caught it with ease, his stupid Quidditch hands.

“I have an idea,” Malfoy said after a moment.

Hermione ignored him. “There has to be a way out of this.” She was pacing again, sensible shoes kicked off to the corner (where she’d undoubtedly forget them) “I could write another motion? A longer one this time. With more quotes.”

“Marry me instead.”

Hermione stopped pacing. “Excuse me?”

“I’m your best option.”

“I have many options —

“Weasley already tricked someone into marrying him and Potter is engaged to my only friend.” He frowned, in a mocking sort of way. “Did I leave anyone out?”

“No.” Hermione said flatly. “You didn’t.”

“Alright then. Marry me.”

“Hah.” She said, “Hah. I take back everything I’ve ever said about you. Malfoy, you are funny.”

“I’m being serious.” He said, looking annoyed. Fantastic, they were both annoyed. Like they always were.

“We can get married before the law passes and then you can do what you do best.” Malfoy continued, like that was a totally normal thing to say.

“Which is?” Without her shoes, the height difference was unbearably noticeable. She had to tilt her head back to meet his eyes. At some point he'd stopped being a willowy wraith of a person and began the unfortunate process of filling out.

He didn’t look away. “Destroy everyone’s expectations and free the downtrodden.”

Hermione rolled her eyes. “What would you get out of this arrangement?”

Malfoy shrugged, too practiced to be nonchalant. “I’d be married to a war hero. It would do wonders for my reputation.”

“And you would be married to me.” Hermione said, beginning to feel like this was getting too real, “We both know that would never happen.”

“Never?”

“Never.” She agreed.

He wasn’t smiling that lazy smile from before, this one was different. Sharper. “I don’t think that’s true.”

“Besides,” Hermione continued on loudly, “you’re no gentleman. No need to pretend. I don’t need saving, I’ll figure this out myself.”

“You don’t need to.” Malfoy said, “I will help. I want to fuck over the Ministry for many reasons, but mainly because they declined your motion.”

He was on her side of the office now, leaning casually against her desk, inches away from where she stood. He was too pretty up close, like staring at the sun.

“It was very good.” Hermione breathed.

Malfoy nodded, almost too good at pretending to be sincere.

“I’m sure it was good. You touched it. Everything you touch is golden.”

“You truly want to help me?”

“I’ve only offered several times.”

Hermione narrowed her eyes. “All to fuck over the Ministry? No other reason?”

“Maybe I want you all to myself.”

Hermione's eye twitched.

"Don't tease me." She managed to hiss. "Not about this."

She saw when he realized, a flicker of excitement in his eyes — when he noticed her apparent misery at how completely and helplessly she was drawn to him.

"I'd never dream of it." Malfoy said warmly, "You could kill me with ease, only an idiot would be careless around you."

She thought of all the long nights they spent together, crammed in their tiny little office. How she looked forward to her day, if only to see his stupidly pointy face. How she tried to date, but couldn’t. Because it wasn’t right — her dates were too kind, too short.

Not him.

How, through everything, he was the first person she thought of in the morning, the person she thought of in the darkness of the night, when no one could see her wandering hands — the person she looked at for a challenge, for relief and support.

Despite her best attempts, Hermione Granger had fallen in love with Draco Malfoy and now, here he was, seeming to share in her suffering.

“We’d have to consummate the marriage.” She said, giving him one last out. “You’d have to see me naked.”

“I’m sure I’ll survive.”

“I’m very bossy,” she said, “and I work all the time.”

“Good thing we share an office.”

“I’m not easy to love.”

Malfoy scoffed. “It’s been easy enough for me.”

He was close enough to touch, so uncharacteristically open. Looking down at her with fondness she didn’t know he possessed.

“I’m selfish.” Malfoy warned, “Do not forget that. I will help you destroy this law and anything else you want. Burn it all down if you want to. But I won’t be letting you go. Not now, after I've gotten you."

“I suppose that’s fine.” Hermione said softly, watching as his hand moved to touch her face, warm against her skin. "It'll be bearable to be around you, I suppose."

As he held her face in his hands, Hermione watched as his grin transform into something different, something new — a smile she'd only seen glimpses of, one only for her. "I'll work very hard to make our marriage a tolerable one." He said.

"Good," Hermione breathed, stretching up to kiss him, to finally press her lips against his, "I can't wait."

Hermione was married at 3pm on a Tuesday.

It was a small ceremony.

Harry, although he'd never publicly admit it, was relieved.

Despite his best attempts, he would've made a face when Hermione had kissed him.

Inside Out 2:Happyshift Au -Fear!

This one is for @scn-thedog who commented all the way back on June 12 (like dawg i am so sorry )

I'd imagine they'd be like trauma buddies

Fear takes the general place of Envy’s role in the movie witch was basically anxiety’s right hand man egging her on and stuff. Joy appreciates fear for doing the things that she can’t, giving riley that extra push. Like, their combination created a dangerous habit making Riley's symptoms worse overtime.

The Disorder isn't just mania, at least that’s what Riley needs to learn to coexist with., it's this entire situationship with the other emotions in headquarters.

Think of when Joy and saddness were stranded outside of headquarters and the Jar incident from inside out 2. The general mistreatment of saddness in the first movie. That stuff build up. Workplace “Incedents” Like these or in geral trashy treatment leads to the distress of the human and other unwanted symtoms. Like Repression of feelings.

I’d say the key to good health in the inside out universe includes a couple of theses things

Healthy Workplace Environment Without the Mistreatment of fellow employee or bad working conditions. 

( Riley manages allows release of her emotions and feelings in a healthy way, such as going to therapy, journaling, In general the self-awareness for it all. and other healthy, emotional Outlets :)

External stressors are dealt with appropriately 

Among the emotions teamwork is key!

Coping with trauma and other mental health conditions adequately. 

We’re not going to delve into how trauma functions in headquarters and in Inside Out in general but if you are wondering all my head canons come from the work Wounds Beneath the Surface by CrazySnakeLover on Ao3 It gave me a good idea of how i should design that kind of stuff

Tw- read the warning that the creator listed of course ;) It is about trauma after all.

. Sure, joy Will always be in her monstrous form against her will but what adds too it is decreasing mental health. Witch I would like to depict as an unhealthy relationship and dynamics between the emotions, this is the basis for gained conditions such as temporary depression and other things that may be affected by internal and external factors. An Inspo for my au is Inside Out Neurodiversity a fic made by Transformersfan123 on ao3. its a series consisting of one shots exploring these kinds of ideas.

Back to Fear!

Fear would help the other emotions get riley on her feet and moving, although Riley's main motivators in this are joy and sadness. fear would probably catch on the the questionability of joy's plan, but he's gonna try to go along with it anyway.

 

And as always never hesitate to correct me or inquire about anything, it's all apart of the fun of au building.

5 Dos And Don’ts For Maintaining Oral Hygiene At Workplace

Start your journey to a healthier life with good oral hygiene! Maintaining oral health is not just about flashing a confident smile; it’s a cornerstone of overall well-being. In today’s fast-paced work culture, oral care often takes a backseat, yet it significantly impacts how you feel and perform. A healthy mouth is key to interacting confidently with colleagues and tackling daily tasks effectively. Neglecting oral hygiene can lead to discomfort, poor focus, and even missed work days due to dental issues. The good news? Incorporating simple yet effective habits into your routine can keep your teeth and gums in top condition, even with a busy schedule. From managing packed meetings to navigating tight deadlines, caring for your oral health is simpler than you think and the benefits extend far beyond the workplace!

Here are five dos and don’ts to help you maintain excellent oral hygiene even during hectic work days.

Dos for Workplace Oral Hygiene

1. Stay Hydrated

Drinking water throughout the day is one of the simplest ways to promote oral health. Water helps wash away food particles and bacteria that can lead to plaque buildup and bad breath. Keep a reusable water bottle at your desk and sip regularly to keep your mouth moist and healthy.

2. Use Sugar-Free Gum

Chewing sugar-free gum after meals can stimulate saliva production, which helps neutralize acids produced by bacteria in your mouth. Saliva acts as a natural cleanser and can reduce the risk of cavities. Look for gum with xylitol, a natural sweetener known to combat bacteria.

3. Brush After Lunch

If possible, keep a travel-sized toothbrush and toothpaste in your desk drawer or bag. Brushing after your lunch break can prevent food particles from lingering in your teeth, which could lead to plaque and bad breath. A quick two-minute brush can make all the difference.

4. Store a Mouthwash

For those busy days when brushing isn’t feasible, swishing with an alcohol-free mouthwash can help maintain freshness and kill bacteria. Keep a small bottle in your desk drawer for an easy and effective midday oral care routine.

5. Choose Tooth-Friendly Snacks

Opt for snacks that promote oral health, such as crunchy fruits and vegetables like apples, carrots, and celery. These foods act as natural toothbrushes, scrubbing your teeth and stimulating saliva production. Avoid sugary snacks, which can lead to cavities.

Dont’s for Workplace Oral Hygiene

1. Don’t Rely on Mints Alone

While mints can mask bad breath temporarily, most are loaded with sugar that can contribute to tooth decay. Instead, use sugar-free mints or gum to keep your breath fresh without harming your teeth.

2. Avoid Snacking Frequently

Constant snacking throughout the day exposes your teeth to repeated acid attacks, increasing the risk of cavities. Stick to designated meal times and choose tooth-friendly snacks if you need a quick bite between meetings.

3. Don’t Skip Regular Dental Checkups

Workplace commitments might make it tempting to postpone dental appointments, but regular checkups are crucial for the early detection of dental issues. Schedule your visits in advance and prioritize them as part of your healthcare routine.

4. Steer Clear of Sugary Beverages

Sugary drinks like sodas, energy drinks, and sweetened coffee can erode enamel and increase the risk of cavities. Instead, choose water, unsweetened tea, or black coffee to stay hydrated and protect your teeth.

5. Don’t Share Oral Care Items

Sharing toothbrushes, toothpaste, or mouthwash with colleagues is unhygienic and can spread germs. Keep your oral care items personal and store them in a clean, dry place.

Why Oral Hygiene Matters at Work

Hello! may I please have headcanons for Hayato, Ike, Kenmochi and Shu hearing that their s/o passed out while they were working and were in hospital? thanks in advance!

WHEN YOU PASS OUT WHILE WORKING

genre: fluff

pairings: Kenmochi Tōya, Kagami Hayato, Ike Eveland, Shu Yamino x gn!reader

Kenmochi Tōya

Normally, his first instinct would be to “scold” you for taking care of your health so poorly.

But when he receives a call from the hospital and arrives there just to see you resting on the hospital bed in such a weak state, he’s too worried to even scold you.

He’s a little assured when the doctor says it's nothing too serious and that you just passed out due to fever and overworking yourself and that you could be discharged once you wake up.

Would stay by your side and keep checking your temperature until you’re awake.

Once you’re awake, he would be relieved and would lightly scold you for being careless about your health.

If it’s possible, he will ask you to take a few days off from work

Would make sure you’re eating healthy food and taking breaks from work when necessary.

Kagami Hayato

Is worried to death about you.

He will call your workplace to let them know that you will be taking a few days off.

Even though the doctor had already said it wasn’t anything too serious, he isn’t rest assured until you’re awake from your slumber.

Once you’re awake, he’d ask if you’re feeling better while placing the back of his hand against your forehead to check your temperature.

Lots of cuddling time once the two of you get home.

He’s also willing to take a few days off his own work to take care of you.

From that incident, it’ll become a habit for him to check up on you when you’re working to remind you to eat and take breaks.

Ike Eveland

Quite similar to how Kagami reacts.

Is very concerned about you.

Would hold your hand and would keep placing a kiss on the back of your hand while you’re asleep on the hospital bed.

You might or might not get a lecture from him on how you should take better care of yourself.

Lowkey feels like he’s responsible for what happened but wouldn’t tell you that of course.

His full attention is on you for the next few days until he’s very sure that you have completely recovered.

Shu Yamino

He knew you were overworking yourself but is still very worried that it came to the point where you passed out.

Once he arrives at the hospital and sees you on the bed smiling sheepishly at him, he can’t help but let out a sigh of relief.

Would place a kiss on your forehead and tell you how worried he was.

Kisses and cuddles you a lot after bringing you home.

Definitely no more overworking yourself because he’ll keep an eye on you.

I’d love to see some kureha headcanons from you!! (And maybe even some that involve Jack??) I’ve been really enjoying seeing ur headcanons in my feed!

I don't really know if you meant this as in a ship/friendship way, but I just decided to go overboard and put effort in to explore their weird ass (gay) dynamic lmao

Kureha HCs:

Kureha speed-reads. It's a habit he developed in elementary school so he could spend more time protecting his brother, and it was a fantastic help during his studies to become a doctor.

This man has a flawless memory. You mentioned something to him three years ago about something you liked but it was out of stock? Guess what, he bought it at it's lowest price point and is now giving it to you on your birthday. Surprise!

His handwriting is the WORST for non-professional things. You got a prescription from him? Yeah, you can read that just fine! Patient charts? The most flawless writing you have ever seen. He left you a note on your computer? You think that says coffee, but it could also say chicken, so now you're confused.

Claims to be against workplace gossip and against participating until he gets home, because then he's telling you all about how Ayumi from the front desk is fucking the neurologist and his wife just hired a PI, but apparently she's been messing around with the janitor at her job.

He has favourite patients. Jack is simultaneously his favourite and least favourite patient, the man will just sit and let him do whatever he wants as long as it's in the name of improvement, but he's TERRIBLE at recovery. Kureha says "bedrest for three weeks with mild exercise", and Jack hears "Don't push yourself until the point of passing out for three days".

Speaking of patients, he absolutely takes meticulous notes. Is the patient being difficult and rude? Oh it's going on their chart in meticulous detail. They called him a name and refused to take their meds? It's on the chart in the most professional but still passive-aggressive way.

Jack HCs:

Uncannily good at math. If you ask him, offhandedly and as casually as possible for an answer to a math question, he'll almost instantly get you an answer, and most of the time it's either spot on or really close. Baki has tried to get Jack to answer the questions for his math homework before, and it took a while before Jack realised what was up.

He learned about Baki a while before he actually met him, but he still hasn't processed that he's an older brother, so occasionally Baki will call him brother super casually and Jack will just [dialup noises] for a solid minute until he remembers "oh right yeah, that's actually my little brother."

Forever tired and hungry, but determined enough to get away with a chronic lack of sleep for months on end until he finally crashes. Healthy? No. He knows it too, but he's got things to do, and sleep can wait until he's kicked his father's ass. If he keeps being such a strong favourite too, a nice comfortable mattress is in store for him.

He knows he can beat bears in a fight (as with most wild animals that he grew up knowing) but the problem is that he doesn't like bears, he grew up knowing that you don't mess with bears, because they'll ruin your day. He'll deal with them no problem, but he won't like it.

He doesn't wake up very fast at all, most of the time he just gains conscience like two hours after waking up and he's doing something. He's "woken" up before after having an hour long conversation with Tokugawa about his hometown after Father Samuel called him.

He sometimes (when he's very tired or just waking up) will forget just how big he is. He has slammed his head against doorframes many times. He will continue to do so most likely.

Jack and Kureha HCs:

Jack and Kureha as friends are two weird mfs. For starters, Jack is quiet and stoic, so most people that see him assume that he's either some sort of bodyguard for Kureha, or that he's annoyed by him. In reality, Jack's just a quiet person, and Kureha takes every chance to talk his ears off because he won't interrupt unless it's important.

Sometimes it's painfully aware just how much more experienced and educated Kureha is in everyday matters. Jack didn't even go to high school, and Kureha managed to become a practicing doctor. Jack isn't stupid by any means, but sometimes Kureha absolutely loses him because he's talking about something Jack hasn't ever learned about before.

While Kureha can go off about medical jargon to Jack and lose him after just about five minutes, Jack can just start talking about the, quite frankly weird shit that happens out in the Canadian wilderness near his home, and Kureha just doesn't have any idea how to process the fact that at least some of what Jack tells him is true and has happened within Jack's direct line of sight.

Jack and Kureha dating, however, is very different. They're such bitches to each-other because they're so in love that they're at the "I fucking hate you" stage of their relationship, but only when they're out in public. It's a lot of Jack cleaning up the absolute mess that is Kureha's apartment, and Kureha making a mess out of the apartment the second Jack steps out.

Kureha absolutely tries to pull a whole dominant/submissive thing, with Jack being submissive, but mans was legitimately too chill to really care and it ruined the whole thing for Kureha, who legitimately pouted for a whole week. Jack had no idea what he did wrong either, he thought that Kureha wanted to be dominant, so he submitted. He's not really one to fight for dominance, if he wants it he'll just take it.

Neither of them being able to cook for shit, other than Jack being uncannily good at breakfast foods, so they either eat pancakes at 6pm or they go out to eat. It means less dishes (usually) so Jack doesn't complain, since Kureha could never do those.

A lot of Kureha saying that Kosho is being annoying and Jack being like "That's nice, Baki's chill, an angel really. Anyways, do your parents want me to come over?" Just so he can flex on Kureha that his little brother is the better one.

I NEED to know how are Joker's goons with a partner they really care and love, I just have a crush in them all

Joker's Loyal Three: The Boys x Reader

Good thing they have a crush on you too anon! I’m so happy people like them so much. I love this lore building campaign about Joker’s Loyal three that we’re having!! So much content.. they deserve it!

Let’s discuss in detail down below. Grab a snack love 🖤✨

Frost

You have to be mature and ready to not only love Frost, but his daughter, Genesis too. They're a package deal and Frost refuses to let just anyone around his girl. If Gen doesn't like you, it's an automatic no. Thank you and goodbye. 👋🏾

Now if you pass the vibe check? Oh girl you set for life.

Prepare yourself for a long healthy relationship. Frost has been storing up love for someone special and once he finds you? RIP, because he’s gonna unleash it all at once. I don’t think you’re ready cuz this level of affection is so unexpected from a guy like him.

Yeah he lives up to his name and he's got MAJOR guard dog energy, (he wears his dog tags around you so you know he’s about that life) but his devotion is a raging fire that it blinds you. When it comes to his lady, Frost doesn’t hold back. Before you even think about asking for something, it's already done. And don’t get it twisted; he’s not a simp, he’s a gentleman. There’s a difference.

He's picking you up, he's dropping you off, opening doors, silently observant to your needs to cater to them, and he's always one step ahead; and he does it all without asking anything in return. That’s what distinguishes a gentleman from a simp. Frost is all about acts of service. Everything Frost does is structured and orderly so be prepared for that in a relationship. He plans a date and it’s executed to perfection, right down to the time he takes you home or if Gen is away for the night, you’re staying over... 😏

Frost is a gentle giant and quite possessive once you get close. If you’re out on the town and someone tries to hit on you— Frost magically spawns behind you, and a literal growl of “back off” is heard. He’s the best boyfriend but don’t call him that. It’s not “manly” but once he feels comfortable enough to crack a smile around you? It's over. He's locked in.

You are never getting rid of him. Don't be surprised half a year into the relationship and he's asking you to move in. He knows you're the one for him, why waste any more time?

Date ideas: Bars, Sporting events, the gym, out with him and Gen

Mac

Be prepared to be absolutely spoiled. Mac comes from old money and all his life he’s dealt with fake women and friends, wanting access to his family’s wealth. You however don’t care about the money, and that makes him feral.

Mac, despite his frat boy reputation, was raised to respect women and once he sets his eyes on you? He will worship the very ground you walk on. Of course he has to make sure you’re down bad just like he is. The first few months he’s such an arrogant jerk, you almost lose interest, but it’s Mac’s way of testing if you actually like him or just after his money.

Once you pass the vibe check, OH GIRL! He wraps you up in a fur coat and showers you with love.

100% Mac’s love language is gift giving. If he thinks you’ll like it, it’s yours. You get weekly flowers delivered to your workplace and another bouquet to your home and that’s on top of the car he orders to chauffeur you around. There’s flowers in there too. Wait, did you want the car too?! You don’t care about the gifts; but it’s stuck in his head (from past lovers) that tangible things show his love. You have to break that habit and educate this man there’s other ways to show affection.. 😏

Speaking of, Mac is constantly touching you. A hand on your waist, thigh, holding your hand, an arm thrown over your shoulder— you name it, he's doing it. He needs that reassurance that you’re with him. Some people think you’re just using him (he secretly believes it too) but after a year together when you bite your lip and ask can you move in? Big surprise!!! He already purchased a house he thinks you’ll love. And you do just as much as you love him.

Date ideas: Boat rides, flights abroad, Kentucky derby, late night car rides

Neo

You must have patience to deal with this one. He is a walking red flag so proceed with caution. That being said, it’s still possible to tame this heathen and one look into your eyes got Neo acting correct real quick.

Pulling girls isn’t an issue, it’s keeping them that’s the problem. Neo never had a serious relationship before yet he feels something click when you accidentally bumps into him. You got him so tongue tied, Mac and Frost make fun of him afterwards. The infamous Casanova short circuits at the sight of you, don’t be surprised if he hopelessly follows you around the club all night trying to get your number. Thankfully he's cool with the bf of one of your friends and gets your number that way because you vanish into thin air like the angel he believes you are.

Neo has to work extra hard not you scare you off. He knows his reputation has found it way to your ears. He’s a multiple club owner, a known plug, and secretly Joker’s hit man. The odds are not in his favor but he’ll do anything to have you in his life. The way you smile, your soft demeanor… it’s vastly different from his other flings and you are driving him insane.

It’s the first time that Neo is chasing a female, not the other way around.

He’s pulling up outside your place just to talk, I mean, yeah he wants you sexually but he wants to take things slow and that works in his favor. Proving that he’s serious helps to slowly lower your apprehension about him. All your friends warned you that Neo is a classic fboy— yet that’s a stark contrast to the guy who takes you to amusement parks or to the skating rink in the middle of the night. You feel like a teenager again smoking and making out well past your curfew.

He’s trying so hard to be ‘boyfriend material’. The baby is struggling, so don’t laugh. If it were up to him, you would be helping him dump a body not holding hands at a craft store buying yarn. He can’t complain too much since you’re knitting him a new Shiesty so 👀

Ironically he’s the one who has to pass the vibe check. It takes forever for you to give him a chance and “officially date” him after a year of playing hard to get.

And gurl once he gets the green light, you better buckle up. Two months into the ‘official relationship’, he gifts you a promise ring and a key to his place. Once there, you finally get a taste of that fboy energy everyone warned you about.

Neo rearranges your guts and breaks your back but afterwards he sits back smoking a blunt, holding your still trembling body to his— just happy he has a girl who wants to stay with him. He is never letting you go.

Date ideas: His various clubs, hole-in-the-wall events in Gotham, his place, (insert your favorite hobby) establishment

Too Grown

Do you know what adulthood has taught me, especially with my endless search for leisure in all aspects of my life: any way I can make my life easier, more enjoyable and just a breath of fresh air, I'll do it.

I feel like I've known this for a while, but it really dawned on me today when I received my new makeup brushes.

I was the girl who did her own acrylics in college, did her own sew-ins and washed my make-up brushes - by hand. But I'm tired. And I personally feel like anything that takes up my time that can be fixed by buying a replacement or receiving services should be done, expeditiously. I go to the nail and hair salon, religiously. I maintain my nails and hair, personally. At night, I use cuticle oil on my fingers to keep them fresh, and I can maintain my hair beautifully.

That's what leisure means to me. Finding ways to make my life easier. That's something our mother's didn't do. I remember taking my time to do my hair and makeup to go somewhere or using an entire weekend for personal maintenance and women (both in and out of my family) would make comments like "wait until you have kids" or "your job isn't demanding", etc.

Please remove yourself from my presence.

I was a whole commissioned officer in the United Staes army, running not only a section but my own platoon; I am a busy body by nature. But I have always made the time to take care of myself.

I think the issue is most women don't take into account that their personal time (for maintenance mostly) should be billed into their schedule the same way doctors bill patients in their operating rooms.

Now, especially on the cusp of getting married and turning 27 (God-willing), my time is not only precious - it's expensive. I am a full time student, fit and fine girl, doggy mom, and glamorous. I wake up early to start my day with coffee and morning Bible reading, I go to the gym for about two and a half hours (one mile run for a warm up, 25-35 minute weightlifting session, 10-15 minute abdominal workout, two mile walk, and ten minutes in the sauna), I go home and clean and do any meal-prep extras for my fiancé, shower, and then I spend three to four hours studying and doing classwork. My time is again precious and expensive. With that being said, I isolate my workouts and school work to be between Monday and Friday. I use my Weekends for waxes, hair and nail appointments, along with meal-prep and time with my man.

I'm also glad that I never let anyone deter me from what I felt made sense to me. Now that I know this is me, I know, God-willing, when my fiancé and I get married and have kids, we'll still make the time and accommodations to not only be able to take care of our children, but take care of ourselves - and why?

Because we ain't new to this we true this!

Now that I have established that I'm grown af, ladies, especially if you're single and in your twenties, this is the best time to reinvent and create the best version of yourself. These are the years that will curate the habits we take into our marriages, into motherhood, in the workplace, into our thirties and later years.

Understanding and truly believing that your time is not only precious, but expensive will also help you keep rift raft out of your personal life.

I love y'all!

Eat healthy, drink water, workout, smell good, do your make-up and hair, and make 2025 your year.

With love,

Sarah Chanel

The Use of Subliminal Audios to Enhance Quality of Life

Subliminal audios are recordings that embed messages below the threshold of conscious perception. These messages aim to influence the subconscious mind, potentially improving various aspects of life, including love, health, finances, and work performance.

Mechanism of Action

Subliminal messages work by bypassing the conscious mind, which often resists change due to established beliefs and habits. By targeting the subconscious, these messages can subtly alter thoughts, attitudes, and behaviors. Research indicates that subliminal stimuli can be perceived by the unconscious mind, influencing emotional responses and decision-making processes without conscious awareness.

Applications in Different Life Aspects

Love and Relationships

Subliminal audios may promote positive beliefs about love and relationships. For instance, messages designed to enhance self-esteem or reduce anxiety can lead to better interpersonal dynamics. Individuals may find themselves more open to love or able to express affection more freely as a result of these subconscious shifts.

Health and Well-being

Many people use subliminal audios for health-related goals such as weight loss or stress reduction. Studies suggest that these messages can help individuals overcome unhealthy habits by reinforcing positive behaviors subconsciously. For example, subliminal messages encouraging healthy eating or regular exercise can complement conscious efforts in lifestyle changes.

Financial Success

Subliminal recordings aimed at improving financial mindset often focus on abundance and success. These audios can help listeners develop a more positive attitude towards money, potentially increasing motivation and enhancing decision-making related to financial opportunities.

Work Performance

In professional settings, subliminal messages can enhance skills such as public speaking or salesmanship by boosting confidence and reducing anxiety. By reinforcing positive affirmations related to competence and success in the workplace, individuals may experience improved performance and job satisfaction.

Effectiveness and Limitations

While there is some evidence supporting the effectiveness of subliminal audios, results can vary significantly among individuals. Research indicates that subliminal messaging tends to be most effective when it aligns with existing desires or needs; for example, if someone is already motivated to improve their health, subliminal messages may reinforce this motivation. However, the influence of these messages is generally short-lived; effects may diminish quickly after exposure.

Moreover, while many consumers spend considerable amounts on subliminal self-help products—reportedly over $50 million annually—scientific scrutiny reveals mixed results regarding their efficacy for significant behavioral change.

Conclusion

Subliminal audios present an intriguing tool for personal development across various life domains. By engaging with the subconscious mind, these recordings have the potential to foster positive changes in love, health, finances, and work performance. However, individuals should approach these tools with realistic expectations and consider them as complementary methods alongside conscious efforts toward personal growth and improvement.

2024 in review.

As always, part of my personal tradition is taking stock of the good and wonderful things that happen during the year, even (or especially) when the year itself is very challenging and fraught. I feel that taking pride in yourself and the time you’ve spent, and reflecting with gratitude on the small, good moments is integral to farewelling a dying year and moving into a new one, and it’s healthy and healing for me to do.

If you are looking for an opportunity to do the same, please take this post as your invitation to join me. Take care. <3

It's been the first full year without mum, and grief continues to be strange and omnipresent.

But so has joy, and fun, and satisfaction, and all these other good things that make the rest worth it. From a certain perspective, this past year has been the biggest triumph yet for me, and 2025 now stands as an enormous open door to a future I'm excited to experience.

submitted my PhD dissertation. It's been part of my life for so long and now I feel the burden lifted off me. It goes without saying the feelings involved in this moment are complex, but the resounding one is relief. This work was probably one of the most, if not the most, difficult project I'll ever undertake, and it's complete. .

wonderful little people in my life. The kids of friends and family are growing up bit by bit and it's a pleasure and a privilege to get to know them. The biggest little one (less every day, though) turned three yesterday. Another little one took his first solo steps on his first birthday, which was such a special moment to be witness to. And more babies are on the horizon for the coming year, some imminently! I've never wanted to be a dad, but I am so pleased and grateful I get to be a friend. .

Clair's new work. Another one of those times when someone else's happiness and well-being is basically better than your own. It is so good to see her content and appreciated in a workplace that treats her right, and the harmony this change has created in our home as a result is also very nice. We're finding a lovely equilibrium in our habits and routine now. .

experienced great art. I saw Alphonse Mucha's work in person, and a live concert of The High Kings, and Frankenstein on stage, and other really excellent theatre productions (and also some that were... fine). I played Beastieball, which I'd been looking forward to for over a year and it lived up to and surpassed my expectations. I also watched all of Haikyuu in a grief-fugue at the beginning of the year, and I'm counting that here as well because it was fun and valuable in that period of despair and I will do it again. .

went on holiday! Our first trip (longer than a weekend away) since before covid, and it was a lot of fun! It was so luxurious to not have to worry about so many things for over a week. .

facilitated a festival panel. Not the first time facilitating, of course, but the first time at a festival as a paid gig. I'm interested in getting a bit better known in the region -- raising my profile, all of that -- so I'll be keeping an eye out for similar opportunities going forward. .

two years in our home! It continues to be so wonderful to have our own home. And we've started planning on what our renovation goals and timeline will look like. On a less permanent scale, I did a little extra decorating around my desk in my room and it's really made it feel like a home. I get such a rush of delight just looking at it now. .

got my first tattoo. I don't think tattoos need to be intensely meaningful and personal to be worth getting, but mine certainly is. Serendipity really does feel divine sometimes. .

did a cool proofreading gig. Similar to the panel from earlier this year, this is something else I'd like to be branching into more in the professional sphere of my life so the opportunity was very timely -- and, I hope, might lead to others in the future. .

lived with grief. I try to take solace in the thought that the first year after bereavement is likely to be the most intense, and that with time, the grief becomes easier to manage, so there is a feeling of pride at how together I still am after all I was surviving this year. But, at the same time, I know for many parts of this year, I cheated, and put some thoughts and feelings on hold because I was scared that if I didn't, it would pull me under altogether and the whole year would be a wash, and I just couldn't afford that with the time I had and all that needed to be done. So all this to say, I won't be surprised if grief 2: the griefening hits quite hard at multiple points throughout the new year, but that's okay. I've put the time aside to sit with it now.

[ninetynice]

Well, it's Sunday again. Like usual, I continue to write something, very happy because somebody likes and shares my story, maybe it's interesting, inspires others, or maybe nothing. I still write until nobody cares. I would have to say that so many things happen in my life. I dealt with a huge amount of stress recently about quitting some bad habits. It's really hard, but I will never give up. Today is a Vietnamese Women's Day! I received some flowers and wishes, I'm in love with these things. Thanks to my acne problems, which is the chance for me to get to know more about my dermatologist. Now that I understand more about my skin, healing it from past trauma is not very easy; it requires a lot of my care, a consistent mind, and a healthy lifestyle. It's time to change; everyone needs to suffer, and so do I. I'm very excited about the next coming week. I love all of my lessons at school; I love all the lessons at my workplace and the time I will spend with the foreign teacher. He teaches me a lot without judgement. I'm so grateful to my boss, who gives me the opportunities to learn and grow. Now that I realise that I need to enjoy my journey, I learn to accept that the outcome doesn't interest me anymore. Let me remind you of some wonderful things today:  Your anxiety, unhappy, angry, negative feeling is just temporary. Don't let them control you. You are the universe, you can attract what you want in life. You are a unique, confident, and independent person. Embracing your best self today. Listening to your favourite music and becoming the person you always wish for.

Productivity

So today we are going to know about productivity where first we should know what productivity is so productivity is productivity generally refers to the ability of an individual, team, or organization to work efficiently within that time in order to maximize output. As we should know how we are going to increase our productivity as so in first we should keep things simple as. While having a productivity strategy is key, where don't make things complicated and the second one is set reminders as in night only you should set reminders that what all you need to do in a day if you are going to set your goals according to your time things will start falling at a right place throgh efficiently and effectively so the another step is there are 4c's of productivity communication, celebration, collaboration, and culture. So communication in productivity says that communication is a form where two or more people engage with each other and started having a conversation related to it as in terms of individually or through any organization: As celebration is These celebrations can come in the form of anything from a virtual high five on an HR platform to a fullifledged, rent-out-a-ballroom party. The reasons to celebrate can vary just as much, whether your company just launched a flagship product or an employee updated a social media page. Where in collaboration it is Collaboration among your staff is, of course, a healtny habit to get into. When your team comes together to get projects done and quell five-alarm fires, great things get done. However, while collaboration between employees isn't essential to every single work day - collaboration between the manager and employee always is. This doesn't mean that they'll be working shoulder-to-shoulder on projects, but it does mean they should always be on the same page. Scheduled one-on-one meetings and consistent feedback help ensure alignment and collaboration. And in culture it is A great workplace culture inspires employees to strive for excellence both in and out of the office and truly motivates them to work for their business for reasons outside of personal profit. If you want to determine how healthy your culture currently is, send out a pulse survey with open-ended, anonymous questions. If you want to guarantee a great culture going forward, start with the steps above. So this was about the productivity and this much for todak That's all from my side
