Do others not help you?
Are they making your life hard?
Is your company bad?
Does your compound suck and hinders your work productivity?
A lot of people complain about almost everything.
Statisticians tend to be more on the introvert side and there are discussions that introverts are more likely to have a victim mentality.
According to Jon Gordon, the key is to differentiate between some venting, that we need from time to time, from systemically and constantly complaining.
Take this Power of Positive Leadership Self-Assessment and complete the questions to know your Positivity Quotient Score. By knowing your score you will be able to establish a baseline for growth. You’ll also receive Jon Gordon’s 6 Quick Tips to Help Stop Negativity in Its Tracks.

Join The Effective Statistician LinkedIn group
This group was set up to help each other to become more effective statisticians. We’ll run challenges in this group, e.g. around writing abstracts for conferences or other projects. I’ll also post into this group further content.
I want to help the community of statisticians, data scientists, programmers and other quantitative scientists to be more influential, innovative, and effective. I believe that as a community we can help our research, our regulatory and payer systems, and ultimately physicians and patients take better decisions based on better evidence.
I work to achieve a future in which everyone can access the right evidence in the right format at the right time to make sound decisions.
When my kids are sick, I want to have good evidence to discuss with the physician about the different therapy choices.
When my mother is sick, I want her to understand the evidence and being able to understand it.
When I get sick, I want to find evidence that I can trust and that helps me to have meaningful discussions with my healthcare professionals.
I want to live in a world, where the media reports correctly about medical evidence and in which society distinguishes between fake evidence and real evidence.
Let’s work together to achieve this.
