Self Discovery Newsletter
Are you happy at work?

January 2008
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 
Hi Karen
 
MeHappy New Year and welcome to the first Self Discovery newsletter of 2008.
 
Over the last few weeks, you may have noticed emails about my career workshops and e-books, so please contact me if you would like more information. 
 
People spend so much time at work, so it is important that you are happy at work and feel satisfied in your job. At this time of year when many people focus on their future, why not focus on how you can change your career for the better? So in this newsletter, let me give you some tips to help you improve your job satisfaction.
 
By the way, as many of us set goals for 2008, my goal is to double my newsletter subscribers.  So please forward this newsletter to three of your friends today (and copy me in) and I will send you a free career planning mini e-book.  Thank you Karen and have a great month!
 
 
Best wishes

Are you happy at work?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

StressAccording to a recent "Happiness at work" survey undertaken by Badenoch and Clark, one in four office workers are unhappy with their job.

 
People are motivated by different things at different stages in their career.  Some may be happy if they have job security, others crave a high income or less commuting time.  36% of British workers crave more time with their family and stress levels have increased for private and public sector employees over the last 10 years. 
 
Find out how you can be happier at work - ask yourself the following questions:
 
On a scale of 1 to 10, how happy are you with work right now?
 
What do you need to change in your job or career right now to get better job satisfaction?
 
What would you like to change about your work or workplace?
 
Which parts of your job do you enjoy?
 
What work would you really love to do?
 
What steps can you take over the next year to help you to do this?
 
These questions will help you to focus on what is important to you to achieve great job satisfaction - be as imaginative and creative as you can.
 
If you are passionate about your job, career or business, you will be positive, energetic and look forward to new challenges!
