DO A LITTLE MORE
Many people with a B.Sc., M.A., or even PhD haven't yet learned what it means to believe in their J.O.B. Now they wonder what they went to school for. Education won't do it! Experience won't do it! A raise won't do it and neither will a promotion. The self-esteem, satisfaction and fulfillment you experience at work depends on you. The philosophy of Art Linkletter summarizes what it takes to turn good into better, boredom into stimulating activity and discontent into commitment :
Do a little more than you're paid to;
Give a little more than you have to;
Try a little harder than you want to;
Aim a little higher than you think possible;
And give a lot of thanks to God for health, family and friends.
To transform your daily "have-to's" into a lifestyle of "want-to's," consider these two questions :
What do I want out of my life's work?
What am I willing to do to make it happen?
Therein rests the self-fulfilling information you need to love your job and never have to work another day in your life. Take your job and love it ... one of life's seldom experienced pleasures.
