Whistle while you work – and you’ll do a better job



The next time you are stuck for answers or a solution – give a little whistle... 

New research has found that people who whistle while they work through a critical situation can improve their results. Psychologist Dr. Sian Beilock says the whistling works by breaking the tension. If we’re trying too hard we can suffer from what he calls “paralysis by analysis.” We sabotage our own performance by thinking too much. Whistling, humming or singing in a clutch situation can break the frozen train of thought and help put the situation back in perspective.
