It amazes me how many people think that they need to be miserable at work. It’s almost as if they believe that you shouldn’t get paid for doing something you enjoy! I believe that everyone deserves more than that, which is why I decided to investigate how some people are happy at work practically all of the time.
Have you ever had one of those days when you really wanted to be at home instead of work? Have you ever found yourself wishing it was the weekend? Have you ever gone to bed after a day off in a depressed state, because you know you have to go to work the next day?
I once found myself working opposite a man who was miserable every day. “What do you get out of this job?” I asked him. He thought for quite a while before he replied “I suppose the pension benefits are pretty good.” He was 27 at the time! He simply worked to get money to pay for the parties at the weekend. He worked five days of misery for two days of enjoyment.
This is when I started to look for people who really enjoyed their work to find out exactly how they did it.
