There's situations where you're working at a company and you just lost that loving that loving delia unfortunately unfortunately it happens to most people if not everyone at some point in their careers. You're in a job. Maybe it started out as your dream job. Things were looking great and then something changed because nothing lasts forever right so maybe it was your our best boss ever hired you into the job and helped you learn the things you need to do and that person moved on and the new boss doesn't care whatever the situation is you get into that position where you're maybe you're burned out here for whatever reason you're not enjoying working there anymore. It's normal satisfaction dissatisfaction. Yeah some of this has to do with external forces but your ownership of satisfaction dissatisfaction will depend on on your ability to say yes or not thing and often when I found is in fact. I'm in a situation now where yes I'm doing a lot of the work that I love but I'm not getting enough of it or I'm not being paid what I feel. I'm more all these things so really this this. The idea of resentment comes in we talked about that a little bit prior to coming on air there there are some things and the thing is I want to give the qualifier. This can happen regardless of your position. I have known people who are the top person at their company who also get dissatisfied for some reason. We have to understand that this is a human thing then we're not going to be supremely happy all day every day for the balance of our careers. It's it's not possible for that to really happen unless controlled rolled substance. Let's Lo we're going to set that aside. Okay but there are things that we can do to actually help us sort of keep our minds on the positive going down. The negative road is easy. People describe it as a slippery slope. It's normal. There's a problem with that. If for no other reason that you then start to bring other people with you and you can lose those professional relationships if you're always complaining about something if you're looking looking at different speeds satisfaction disatisfaction whatever your thinking about whatever you are looking for. You're gonNA find it so I think it's really important to start looking for the things that bring you happiness that bring you satisfaction Atas faction focus on the things that you like about the work that you do and as you continue to keep that in your focus you will attract more of that into your existence even documented we get to the valley so to speak and and we're resentful fool. We don't know why we're doing this.
