It may have a physical and/or mental affect

Are you affected by the weather?

Screen Shot 2017-01-13 at 17.33.00Some people are affected either physically or mentally by changes in the weather.

January, depending where you live, may be a month of little sun, low temperatures and lots of rain.

Rainy days can get people down.  Besides getting soaking wet, the temperature may be low and the sky may be dark.  A lack of sunlight can cause seasonal affective disorder (SAD).  This especially affects people who live in countries that have little daylight in winter.

And sunlight can brighten your mood.  But high temperatures can also have a negative affect on tempers.

The weather may affect you physically – joints and muscles may ache when the temperature is low or the humidity is high.

Stephen Covey, in his book 7 habits of highly effective people, says ‘Reactive people are often affected by their physical environment.  If the weather is good, they feel good.  If it isn’t, it affects their attitude and their performance.  Proactive people can carry their own weather with them.  Whether it rains or shines makes no difference to them.  They are value driven; and if their value is to produce good quality work, it isn’t a function of whether the weather is conducive to it or not.

How does the weather affect you?
