The second factor is the ability to
find meaning and purpose in the
work you do. Because we spend so
much time in the workplace, finding
a sense of purpose is vitally
important to the overall enjoyment of
our lives. Discovering this doesn’t
necessarily lie in changing your job,
but rather changing your
perspective of it. So, work out what
drives you and what purpose you’re
fulfilling in your job.
For example, although banks are
perceived by some to be morally
dubious, if you work at one be
aware that without a trusted
institution that can provide us with a
place to borrow and store
money most of the foundations of
our lives that we take for
granted would be impossible.
Remember, perfect jobs where we
constantly feel stimulated, valued
and satisfied seldom exist - there’s
always something wrong with a job.
