How to Love the Job You Have

Some people enjoy work -- they like their boss, their colleagues and the intellectual stimulation. But what if you don't like your work or the people with whom you work?

What can you do? Here is my number one tip:

...actively look for things for which to be grateful.

When I lived in Dallas, our pastor told a story of research done on 100 people who were considered to be very successful in their personal and professional lives. Zig Ziglar also references this in his book See You at the Top. All available information on these successful people was examined in an effort to find out what they had in common. They were stunned by their conclusion: The common denominator with all these people was not education or socioeconomic status or parental wealth, but that they were all "good finders."

What is a Good Finder?

This term was invented to describe how these very successful people looked at the world. Good finders look only for what is good in others and vocally affirm them explicitly and gratefully. We can actively look for the good in everything and everyone, even ourselves; it's just a matter of perception!

It's about choosing to be grateful. Or not. Bad things do happen, but we can choose how we want to look at them. Read more... (http://www.amandagore.com/how-to-love-the-job-you-have/)

You can Change your Life By Changing Your Story

I am sitting today in the apartment of an amazing young woman! She moved everything from Australia to the USA to follow her dream of helping as many people as Oprah by sharing stories that heal! She is an astonishing young woman whom I think will really make a big difference in the world.

I first met her when I returned to Australia after 8 years living in America. This complete stranger called me on the phone to ask me about living and working in the USA and discussed her dream of being a TV personality who made a positive difference in the world. After listening, I said to her ‘why don’t you start your own YouTube TV channel?’.

At that time, YouTube was new and this was a relatively challenging idea! To her great credit, she launched into learning everything about being TV presenter and setting up a how and how to make it all happen on YouTube. This was no easy, or cheap, journey!

She moved to LA and 18 months after she sold up everything in Australia, climbed on a plane and embraced her dream, her show launched one month ago. TA DA Kirsty! Read more... (http://www.amandagore.com/you-can-change-your-life-by-changing-your-story/)
