Any ideas on maintaining a positive attitude going into 2024? I started yesterday with a commitment to do that and honestly I didn't last the full first day back

Take one day at a time. I know this sounds weird, but following some of the approaches used by AA helps a lot!

For example, my goal is not to be positive every single day of 2024. That goal is unrealistic and immediately makes me feel like I can't do it. So instead, my goal is to find one positive thing every day. This is an example, and I suggest you adapt it to what you want.

I started doing high and lows with my 2 year old at bedtime (we do fun + challenging things or frustrations), and it has actually changed my perspective on life! I've realised that I can always find something fun that happened.

I really hope it helps! 🤞🏻

It's important to remain positive. For example, I am positive this place sucks as much this week as it did last week and equally positive it will continue to suck. However, it beats the alternative.

Food on the table, a warm bed to sleep and with people I care for so fix their' mistakes, post the payments, adjust the write off and don't take the shxx home with you. Laugh or walk away when it gets too you. Answer the phone with a smile even when you feel like reaching through the phone and strangling them.

Every morning wake up and take some time to count your blessings. No matter what is going on in your life…there is always something to be thankful for.

I say this…but also…I feel as though I could have written your post 😂.

Lol I hear you. I think it's just the back to work blues. Hopefully we'll find that energy to stay motivated later on in the week

It's not just one attitude or change for the whole year but a commitment to several life altering changes you make for yourself and the company you work for.

Right so here’s a bit of a dilemma I work to a much higher standard at home and it’s this high standard that means I’m in line for a promotion. I’ve grown so much and I feel really strong in my role I’m also busier than ever. The problem is we’re going back into the office and I don’t want to go in if it’s just going to be senior management in asking me to get them lunches for client meetings or fetch a glass of water and cutlery for meeting rooms. Definitely not ready to go back to that….
