Best of 9: Finding Happiness In A Job You Hate

Do you feel stuck in a job that you hate?

Maybe you feel like, “If I just get the new job, then I’ll be happy,” or “When I get this next raise, I’ll feel more accomplished.”

Or, you have a great job, a nice salary, or excellent benefits but feel guilty for wanting to leave all that behind. 

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: your circumstances don’t determine how you feel; your thoughts do. So, how can you find happiness exactly where you’re at right now?

In this episode, I give you permission to release the belief that something has to make you unhappy for you to want to change.

And if something makes you unhappy, it's time to look at what thoughts create that unhappiness and how to change them.

But first, say it with me: WANTING A CHANGE DOES NOT MAKE ME UNGRATEFUL.

It's okay to want to change your situation, but it's important to acknowledge and discover what you truly want.

Happiness is not going to come from outside of you, from changing your situation to obtain the next best thing.

Don’t run from a job you hate into another one you’ll be miserable in just because the grass looked greener from your old office window.

Tune into this week’s episode to learn how to find more happiness with where you’re currently at… even if you still want something different for your future.

It’s time to take responsibility for your emotions and ask yourself, “How can I see this differently?”
