Relationship and connection to co-workers or business partners is really necessary to undesirable office politics.

When you are working hard to become a better employee or to make your business grow, you should seek the help of feng Shui to improve your career or business success. Feng Shui is an old Chinese practice intended to maximize the stream of “chi”, or energy, through your body and your environment. Feng Shui believes that by balancing the energies one can make a good chi, which can lead to good fortune, prosperity and success. Bad chi, on the other hand, can cause difficulties. Oftentimes, feng shui is used in improving the flow of energy inside the house. Then again, the same rules can still be applied in the workplace to help business succeed and prosper. Below are some tips to improve the chi in your workplace.

One feng shui tip for business is to place your desires properly. Write your goals on a whiteboard, sticky notes or vision board in the left area or front of you as you work on your desk. You can also place the list of accomplishments on behind your working space. By placing your goals by your left (dragon side), you are infusing them with positive yang energy. The green dragon will help you reach your goals. If you want to add more influence, you can put an image or a picture of a dragon beside your list of goals.

In feng shui, you must also be careful on how or where you put your name or business name. A lot of businesses commit mistake by having their business name printed on their mats. Why will it cause bad luck? Aside from the fact that people use the mat to wipe dirt from their feet or shoes (which means they are wiping their shoes on your good business’ name) it also makes one look down. If you want to highlight your accomplishments, put a sign or a diploma up high in your office or house where you and your clients can look up and see it.

In order for your business to prosper, you must also activate corners of your workplace called “lucky” corner. Examine the corner of the room that is opposite and diagonal to the door. Make sure that you place some activator like lamp, beautiful object or plant on the said corner to bring significance and beauty to your vision. This corner can greatly influence your thoughts and your mind.

These are some of the basic feng shui tips to bring good luck and good energy flow in your office or business establishment. Of course, one cannot expect to prosper and succeed by merely relying on feng shui. Feng shui can only help improve the chances of getting positive outcome from our work through attracting positive energies but we still have to work hard to get what we wish to have.
