Grumpiness as a Sign of Working Outside of Genius

When individuals find themselves feeling grumpy at work, it may be a result of working outside of their genius. This realization came about when one of the podcast hosts noticed their own grumpiness and traced it back to performing tasks that were not aligned with their unique strengths. Working outside of one's genius is draining and requires energy to maintain civility and patience. As energy levels decrease, grumpiness becomes more prevalent as individuals are less able to focus on kindness and civility. Recognizing this connection can provide relief and understanding, both for oneself and others.
