Whistle While You Work, Part 1

When you hear the word “job,” does it bring up feelings of dread, obligation, or boredom? All of the above?

Well, maybe you’re in the wrong job.

Life shouldn’t be about working for the weekend or going through the motions until you can retire. Each day is a chance to experience happiness while filling a need within a company.

So, as an employee, what can you do?

Give and you’ll get. When you help others on the staff increase their happiness, you will increase yours as well.

Get the right start. Before leaving for work every morning, find one thing about your job for which you’re grateful. Say it aloud and hold onto it throughout the day.

Evaluate the situation. If you take a hard look at your current situation, and you don’t feel valued or respected or find that it’s difficult to bloom in the current environment, you may need to consider changing careers.
