What do you do if you hate your job? You have three options: you can stay and suffer, you can look for a new job, or you can change the way you view your work. The best choice is to focus on yourself and what makes you happy. This way, even if you’re still at your job that you hate, at least it won’t feel like torture. Here are some steps to take in order to make sure your work environment doesn’t make you miserable anymore.
Change Your View
If you hate your job, change your view. Don’t see it as something you have to do every day; make sure it’s fun for you. Look at ways to contribute positively to your company and watch how quickly things turn around for you. Remember, no matter how bad things get in life, there are always choices and a way out if we look hard enough. You can always choose happiness over misery.
Escape From The If Only Scenario
Once you can see what’s really going on, it’s time to make a choice. Is there anything about your job that’s really not so bad, and if so, how can you take advantage of it to make your life better (even if just a little bit)? And if you can’t find anything that makes work enjoyable for even a few minutes, then it’s time to start thinking about other options. There are plenty of ways to change your situation, whether it’s finding another position within your company or looking elsewhere. The important thing is to stop making excuses and do something—anything—to get yourself out of an unfulfilling career rut.
Get Unstuck From A Routine
If you hate your job, there are two things you can do. The first is to try to stay and make it work, which is only good if it’s a career that makes you happy enough to tolerate its flaws. If not, then it’s time to move on! But where should you go? You could start looking for another job, but what if you don’t know what you want to do next? That brings us to our second option: changing how we view our work.
Increase Creativity At Work
In a world where your employer doesn’t care about you, it can be difficult to find ways to stay happy and productive and why You Hate Your Job. However, there are a few things you can do to boost your creativity at work. Simply taking 10 minutes out of each day for yourself can make all the difference.
Doing something fun (like playing with Legos) not only improves your mood and takes your mind off work; it also gives you that renewed sense of creativity needed for productivity.

When it comes to diversity and inclusion as a leader you need to understand one thing, you need to understand that; It is more than just activism, minorities vs the privileged, and correcting the injustices I’ve observed the efforts of many organizations and leaders when it comes to diversity, equity, and inclusion, to be more […]

The Best Employees are the Ones Who Understand the Bigger Picture We often talk about the best leadership qualities, but we should be talking about the best qualities of an employee.

I’ve been studying growth lately — human Growth Through Discomfort — and the most common models out there seem to be a bit misleading. Or, at the very least, incomplete. You’ve probably seen something that looks like this: It plays up the purely positive aspects of growth without at least an acknowledgment of the discomfort […]
It’s that time of the year for New Years resolutions again, where most of us put together a comprehensive list of resolutions and goals to be a better version of ourselves by thinking what we would ideally look like in the future: lose weight, get fitter, be a better spouse, etc and Why New Years’ […]

Life has suddenly become potentially very thorny. The goal posts have shifted completely and now the Necessity is the mother of reinvention. The COVID-19 pandemic has thrust us all into a strange new world. The rules of engagement have been turned completely upside down. There is no more ‘normal’. We don’t even know where or […]
