Put a man in the wrong atmosphere and nothing will function as it should. He will seem unhealthy in every part. Put him back into his proper element and everything will blossom and look healthy. But if he is not in his right element, what then? Well, then he just has to make the best of appearing before the world as a cripple. Ludwig Wittgenstein
About This Quote

When you are in the wrong environment, you will become less effective at your job. Your mind and body will not be at their best. In a professional setting, it is important to be productive and focused. It is not enough to just show up, but you must also perform your duties well.

Put in the wrong environment and the only thing that will happen is your performance will suffer. Put yourself back into the right environment and all of a sudden, you start to work better again. Everyone wants to put out a good performance and do their best work for their employers, but few people know how to create an environment where they can excel.
