Hate your job? Well, whatcha gonna do bout it?

I hear it time and time again, "I hate my job". Chances are you don't really hate your job, you might hate your direct boss. This is the main reason for many people to lose productivity, miss work and at times feel overwhelmed with stress. So what do you do? There are many things we can try, starting with communication, asking for open feedback. Companies also offer employee resources, however if you are not happy, if you have reached that level in which you know beyond a doubt, "this is not the place for you". Then you need to do more than just complain, you need to take action.

What type of action? I have been in this job for over 20 years, this is all that I know. I don't want to start all over again. What if I am not good enough? - Sound familiar? That is the negative chatter that plagues many of us and which keeps us from moving forward. These are the thoughts that keep us prisoners of situations we don't want in our lives.

Ok....so you got me......you just described me. How can I overcome this?
Well, first you must be certain this is not the right environment for you and be clear on the "WHY?"
Second, you want to some research, understand your options, your preferences, available training's.
Third, get your resume ready.......seek professional assistance to prepare a resume that will help you secure the job / career or business you "WANT'.
Fourth get out there and apply......

All this you can do while you are working.......
Did you know that while you are still employed you can begin this process, which helps you in several ways.
First....you are more attractive while employedSecond...you take your mind off of the negative "doom" feelings and feel "empowered" toward change.
Third...you redefine yourself which will reflect in your work.

If you choose to work in a job for the rest of your life, be it by choice not by settling for less than you want.
