5 Ways To Nail That Promotion 

New year, new job? It can be easier than you think to take the next step in your career.

Here are my 5 Ways To Nail That Promotion that will give you a super boost to getting where you want quicker.

1. Blow your own trumpet! Working hard and expecting your line managers to understand or know about all the amazing things you are doing just doesn’t happen. You have to tell them and make it known. Of course you don’t just have a me me me conversation with them, but certainly make them aware of your successes.

2. Ask for opportunities that will demonstrate your skills in the areas that should gain more customers for your business. Your bosses will love to put projects your way that will ultimately benefit them.

3. Keep attendance high. If you fancy that duvet day, plan it! If you’re feeling worn out and need that long weekend there’s no reason why you can’t have it and enjoy it guilt free! That’s what your holiday days are there for, use them wisely and you’ll always have something to look forward to. Bonus Tip: My post time manage your way to happiness may also help;)

4. Let your manager know that when an opportunity for promotion appears, you would like to be considered. Not everyone wants to progress so it’s up to you to tell your senior managers know that you do. They are not mind readers and you don’t want to get overlooked just because you thought they knew. You never know when a good progression opportunity might come along.

5. Don’t get involved in gossip! It’s good to have an idea of what’s going on and it’s human nature to listen to the odd tit bit. However, you don’t want to get a reputation as the gossip spreader, it never goes down well. Keep a healthy distance from it and don’t be afraid to challenge a person if they are being an outrageous liar about a colleague. You’ll gain respect from your peer which will also do you good if you find yourself managing them in the future.

Naipo Cushion Massager Review Giveaway and Discount Code

Wow, today I have the Naipo Cushion Massager Review Giveaway and Discount Code all in one post for you. Happy 2018!

I have a lot of lower back pain and spend a fair amount of time with hot water bottles or cold packs on my back trying to relieve the symptoms. I jumped at the chance…excuse the pun… to review  the Naipo cordless massage cushion to sample the effects of the directed massage pressure where I need it. I have other members of my family who wanted to get involved and I’ll get onto them in a moment!

I really like the look of this cushion, it easily fits in with the cushions already on my sofa which is great as I don’t have to keep putting it away somewhere and it’s available for when I need to use it.

I have featured Naipo before here on the blog with another one of their massagers and as I indicated then, studies into stress suggest the meaningful, positive results achieved by using massage. It’s not just the relief of tight and painful muscles across our body but also the mental relaxation we can find when we are looking after ourselves. It’s good to take the time sometimes and not just look at our ‘to do’ lists and plough on regardless. 2018 is the year when I am going to look after myself far more and I know now that I must be in charge of making that happen.

Easy to operate and here’s how:
1. Press ON/OFF one time, the device will start kneading function in a clockwise direction, without heating.
2. Press ON/OFF again, the device will begin the kneading function with heating, massage head is now in an anti clockwise direction.
3. Press ON/OFF again, the device power off.
4. The device has a handy countdown timer which is set for 20 minutes.

My other half goes to the gym and attends spinning classes which can result in aching leg muscles. As you can see in these pictures, we placed in under his calf’s and in the small of his back. The heat function is a really welcome addition to the massage. We found it added to the overall effect.

I did have the idea that I would be taking it to work with me and use it in my office chair but I don’t know if my other half is actually going to go along with that now.

Overall result:

We found it very easy to get the right position in the back, with the legs you have to spend more time in getting the right angle to sit or lie in before placing it under your legs.

It worked equally well on adults and my 12-year-old son which makes it more usable for our family.

Because it has a contemporary look it can stay on show and not get forgotten in a cupboard.
