A Quick Word: Finding Meaning In Your Work. How To Change How You Think About It
Finding meaning in your work is important. It can be the difference between feeling fulfilled and feeling frustrated. If you are not happy with your job, it is time to change how you think about it.
Start by finding something that you are passionate about. Something that you care about and that makes you feel good. Once you have identified it, focus on bringing that into your work.
Think about how you can connect what you love with what you do. Can you volunteer for a project that aligns with your interests? Can you join a committee or start a project of your own?
The key is to find ways to make your work more meaningful to you. When you are passionate about what you do, it will be easier to put forth your best effort. So don't give up – keep looking until you find something that makes you happy.
