FULFILLMENT AT WORK

This might be a silly question - but it's pretty relevant today. Are you fulfilled in your life? How about in your work? Many clients we work with tell us they have a wonderful lifestyle but as we start to dig deeper, we see that they are missing a great life. What is the difference?

Simple. A lifestyle is the external things which you gather, but a life is something fulfilling and sustaining. Let's look at some of the ways to be more fulfilled.

  1. Stop focusing on earning more and buying more. Stop funding a lifestyle and start creating a better life for you and those around you.
  2. Stop looking for more gratification and start being very grateful for all you do have.
  3. Stop measuring your success in money and start measuring emotional costs. If you work day and night to keep up with your lifestyle, you are giving up your life. Start enjoying your life and making it simple.
  4. Ask yourself if you are working for a living or doing the work you love for life? (I do what I love and love what I do...shouldn't you?)
  5. Focus on your energy, feeling joy, love and having the time to enjoy the special people in your life - this is how to be fulfilled.
  6. If your work drains you or doesn't fulfill your intellectual, social and emotional needs, make a change.
Can't seem to make a change and blaming everyone else? Stop whining... don't be a wimp... take back the power of your life... go for fulfillment... and get back in control!
