This One Mental Shift Can Make You Feel More Fulfilled By Your Work
How to acknowledge and feel pride in your work.
I keep seeing a common struggle amongst people who are trying to build a path for themselves. We don’t acknowledge our work or feel proud of ourselves.
There could be many reasons why we feel this way.
I enjoy the career I’ve chosen. I couldn’t imagine following a different one. However, even though the work fulfills me, now and then, by the end of the day, I feel like I’m not doing enough.
Work, despite it being challenging, is fun. But there’s still a part of me — and perhaps, a part of you — that believes work shouldn’t be pleasant.
Work is struggle, stress, and living on a weekly paycheck. It’s having co-workers and waking up early and dreading your day.
But you? You like what you do, so maybe you’re doing it all wrong.
It doesn’t matter that you spent three hours designing your website, recorded and edited a YouTube video, and scheduled social media posts. You didn’t do enough.
Even worse, you’re falling behind.
