Hot Jobs Kenya

Achieving self esteem at work.

Posted: 31 Mar 2011 02:53 PM PDT

This probably one of the hardest topics to discuss now that almost 83% of the current Kenyan employees are not satisfied. It may be very hard to achieve satisfaction in life and especially at work. If I may ask, do you feel satisfied at the end of the week that you've accomplished something or made a difference at work, or is it a good week for you when you get as far as Wednesday before you wish it was the weekend? It amazes me (although I understand totally from past experience) how many people spend five days of the week wishing and waiting for the other two. Imagine you spend a whole five days groaning and two days enjoying. Five-sevenths of your life is a lot to throw away... Of course the theory of enjoying your work doesn't always stand up to the realities of the job you have. I think it's a tragedy that so many kids these days are brought up to believe that they'll be lucky to get any kind of job at all, and never put the time or effort into working out what they would LIKE to do. If you look at our earlier articles, we have always insisted on following your passion when seeking a career.
