Do’s

 

• Approach your work as if you’re seeing it for the first time. Give yourself a fresh perspective
• Smile at the people around you, even if you feel like growling.
• Schedule some me time for yourself, even if it’s only 15 minutes.
• Look at your calendar for the week. Is there something on it that’s fun? If not, make that happen
• Pick out a good outfit to help you feel good for the upcoming week.

 

 

Don’t

• Catch yourself if you start thinking, “it’s just another week.” Allow yourself to think something great could happen.
• Be grumpy. Let something good be said.
• Just go through the motions. Think of a new way of doing things so you’re not bored.
• Don’t focus on the negative. Try to look at some of the good points of the job and the people around you.
• Underestimate yourself. If you feel like you’ve outgrown this job, there’s no reason why you can’t go out and find a better one.
