“Happiness does not come from a job. It comes from knowing what you truly value and behaving in a way that’s consistent with those beliefs.”
~ Mike Rowe
From my heart to yours.
When you took the job you have now, did you hope it would make you happy?
Did you anticipate having a connection with your coworkers? How about the work itself? Did you imagine yours would be an occupation that would complement your life outside of work and mesh in a way that felt unique and rewarding?
If so, perhaps you’re surprised — or even disappointed.
While some people are fortunate enough to love what they do for a living, most people with jobs regularly face challenges that undermine their ability to be happy at work.
Adults who work full-time spend more of their waking hours at work than anywhere else, and Americans spend more hours per year than citizens of any other nation in the world.
Over the decades I listened to thousands of employees and a few common unhappiness themes began to emerge: burnout and the need for greater resilience; time management and excessive hours or demands; questionable moral practices or challenges to personal integrity; feelings of losing a sense of purpose and the need for deeper, more durable meaning; condescension by superiors who do not listen and show a lack of compassion in decision making.
These conversations and observations lit a fire in me to commit my work to creating positive change — creating happy workplaces for every employee.Â
Let’s work together to make happiness the gold standard of every workplace. Happiness works!
