If nothing ever changed, there’d be no butterflies. ~Author Unknown
This morning, as I think about a conversation I had yesterday with my assistant manager, I am grateful for confirmation that the Law of Attraction is working in my life, and that the values I choose to live by, have a positive impact on my surroundings.
I spoke of receiving complements in a past post, but I received a few more when Tanya stated, “We all fight over who gets to work with you.” While she was only half joking about the fighting part, it seems they all do really enjoy working with me. I am learning that one of the quickest ways to abundance, is by choosing to live your life by giving of yourself, and helping others attain what they want.
Now this seems to be contradictory to the whole philosophy of, “I am not responsible for your happiness,” but it isn’t. If you are a business owner, employer, or employee, and you only think in terms of, “How can this customer/ employee / job help me.” Then your thoughts are only of taking, instead of giving, and believe me taking is what you will experience.
Each day I go into work I know it is my job to say yes, to whatever question that arises, whether it be from my boss, customers, or fellow employees. We are talking of course within reason. If someone asks me to do something immoral, or illegal, that’s a whole other issue. It is my job to help others attain what it is they want, whether it be coffee, good work ethic, or help cleaning up a mess. The words, “Not my job,” should never enter my vocabulary.
By living this way, I have learned to love my job, and it is evident, because another part of the conversation was when my assistant manager and I were kidding each other and she said, “You love this job. So much so, you want a plaque on the wall.” Once again she was only half joking by throwing the bit about the plaque on the wall, but they all know that I truly do love my job, and this attitude is having an impact on how others view me.
A lot of people choose each day to head into a place of work that they can’t stand, then they sit there and watch as each minute, which lasts an eternity, just passes by. They then spend what little free time they have on the job, sitting in the break room, or standing around the water cooler, bitching, and moaning about their bosses, their fellow employees, or the job itself.
Stop now. If you hate your job, and feel that there is nothing that can change that fact, then get out now, or start each day by being grateful for that job, and finding every little positive aspect you can find in it. It may begin with something simple like, “It pays the bills.” Be grateful for that, and pretty soon you will find something else to be grateful for and build on, and soon your thoughts will be on the positive things with your job, and the Law of Attraction will of course respond by giving you more of what you do want, and less of what you don’t.
