A Simple Way To Find More Joy At Work

💡Finding joy at work 💼 can seem like a challenge, but it doesn't have to be!

Here's a simple tip 💡 that I learnt from the amazing Cathy Busani at Happy Ltd: focus on what brings you joy 🎉 and tap into your strengths 💪! When we know our strengths, we can find work environments that allow us to use them, leading to a happier and more fulfilling work experience💛.

Want to discover your strengths? 🔎Grab a pen and paper 📝.

Now, think about a person that you admire, and write down 3 things you see in that someone. What are their behaviours? What do they do?

Take a moment more to reflect, and add 2 more traits. 🤔

Clear your mind and read this list.

Voila! 🎉 These are some of your strengths! 💪 Really! When we observe what we respect and value in others, we often see our own strengths and values reflected back at us.

Don't be discouraged if some traits don't feel familiar, they may be core strengths waiting to be unlocked 🔓.

Remember, joy doesn't come to you, you have to seek it out 🔍. Keep these traits close, and use them to bring more joy into your work! 💛
