3 Reasons Why You Need a Good Attitude About Work

If you like your job, you’re one of the fortunate ones!  If you don’t like your job, you can still make the best of it and try to have a good attitude.  Here’s why:

1. Your kids are watching…and listening.  If you make a habit of complaining about work, your boss, and how you don’t get paid what you deserve, you’re planting the seeds of sour grapes in the mind of your child.  If you don’t like your job, have a can-do attitude – you can do what you choose to about either changing your situation or choosing to have a good attitude and bloom where you’re planted.

2. Work is good for us.  I know, on the days when you don’t think you can drag yourself out of bed, or you don’t know how you’ll make it through eight hours with your boss, work doesn’t seem good at all!  But, the act of doing what we’re supposed to and following through on our work commitments will make us stronger people – even if it doesn’t make us feel like getting out of bed!

3. It provides for our family.  Ask some of your friends why they work.  Ask the guy who goes to a job he doesn’t like why he still punches the clock.  Many of them will tell you it’s because they’re job helps them provide for their family.  There’s a lot to be said for being able to keep a roof over your children’s heads, or being able to put gas in the car so you can take a trip to the beach.  See yourself as noble, yes, noble, for working hard for your family.
