Money can’t buy happiness, but being happy pays! Increasing your happiness offers benefits beyond making more money. Benefits include better relationships with co- workers, colleagues, clients and customers, less stress when the going gets tough, easier to attract interviews or clients, a better work/life balance and more fun!
Some people don’t care about making more money, but almost everyone wants to feel happy. That is certainly what a parent wants for their child. They will say… All I care about is that she or he is happy. Happiness is definitely a big deal.
Why do we settle for less happiness? Why do we settle for getting under paid?
If we were happier would we be more motivated to ask for a raise or raise our fees? My answer is yes!
Become happier by…
1. Recognizing that you are not happy, as you know you can be.
2. Paying attention to your body and mind. Where does your body feel tight? What negative thoughts or negative predictions are in your mind?
3. Accepting that their is nothing wrong with you and you are not alone
4. Creating a “baby steps” strategic plan for becoming happier
5. Getting help and support from the “right” people
6. Remembering that “Progress is a Process!”
Are you as happy as you want to be in your work life? Are you under paid? Ready to do something about it? Would love to help you!
To happiness!
MarGO!
