I dread Monday mornings, unhappy and asking myself “what are you doing!?” regularly throughout week, and do anything I can to shorten my weeks on the road. I think it’s time to make a move

Maybe. A favorite quote of mine: “You don’t hate Monday’s, you hate your job”. At the same time though, I believe happiness is a choice. A study out of Harvard found that happiness comes before success.

Gallup polls show only 32% of employees are engaged at work. That leaves 68% of people feeling just like you. Sometimes the grass just looks like it’s greener on the other side. If you’re open to a suggestion, try doing things that progress you into internal happiness like showing gratitude to someone. Send an email to one person today and just let them know how much you appreciate them and their work. Try this weekly Practicing gratitude is one easy, proven way to boost happiness.

Sorry for the long post. I’ve felt like you before and did a ton of research on why I kept feeling like that. I truly hope this helps.

You are enough.

Hi all!
Would love some insight on how you went from an HR assistant/coordinator to an HR Generalist. I’ve been in the HR world for 8 years, and only in the last 2-3 have I really done real HR work. The first company I was at didn’t have a solid HR team so I don’t really count that. I feel like I’m ready to take on more responsibility and learn more. And of course make more money.

Gift ideas for GF dad? We have been dating a year and a half, I get along with him super well. He is dealing with some medical complications so isn’t to active at the moment but loves cooking and golfing. He is one of those guys who already has everything he needs, and they are super wealthy so I feel bad getting him any clothing or accessories knowing it wouldn’t be as nice as the things he wears, although I know he doesn’t expect anything and would genuinely appreciate anything I got him
