In this episode (32, Series 3) of "50 Ways to Succeed at Work," I delve into whether your job is a write-off or worth saving.
The episode features a compelling case study of Malcolm Lee, who found himself in a situation where he felt his job was trivial and damaging his mental health. His journey of re-evaluating his career and his purpose could serve as a valuable guide for those facing similar challenges.
I offer a practical tool for self-evaluation using four insightful questions. It underscores the importance of finding meaning and purpose in our jobs and how this clarity can be a powerful source of energy in our work lives.
There are plenty of cues in the episode on counteracting a mundane work life with positivity. The importance of countering negativity, taking a news break, shifting your perspective are some of the ways for re-engaging with one's job.
Reflecting on what drives you, what your values are, what you're good at, and the influence you wish to have can also aid in job salvage.
I stress the importance of exploring opportunities outside your job, seeking contributions to your team or organization along with expressing gratitude towards your colleagues.
The episode culminates in advice against making rash decisions and urges you to stay positive during decision-making to make the most out of your existing circumstances.
