Work, work, work

I'm guilty of complaining about my work. The unpaid countless overtime hours, the office gossips, a dead end career, and I can go on about things I hate about my job.

I have been contemplating on leaving but I'm not yet ready. At the moment, I am stuck in this job.

But I know that it would be more difficult for me to wake up in the morning if I dwell on these things. And I will be the only one to suffer, not my billionaire employer.

I have been thinking on these negative words and I know that they are powerful. So I'm glad to be doing this positivity challenge.

It's time to reverse these words of hopelessness to words of gratitude.

Looking at the brighter side

Today, I decided to focus on the good because of my work.

I am grateful for my job because it provides me money for me to survive: my rent, food, and my medical check ups.

I am thankful for my work because it gives me enought time off to travel and see the world.

I thank my employer for giving a comfortable place to do my job and provides free food at the kitchen.

I am lucky that I only have to walk to work.

I am happy that I met some nice people because of my work.

I am thankful for my career because I have grown here and have expanded my knowledge and skills.

Thank You

I just made this thank you list without really planning about this post. It felt good afterwards!

How about you? What are you thankful for today ?
