What keeps me in my
job? Why am I doing what I do? Am I only
working for a paycheck? When will I get a raise?
There is so much more to your career than growing your
paycheck.
Being “appreciated” is not synonymous with being paid more.
Satisfaction is
internal. Grow yourself so you are of
greater value.
How do I know this? If the work you do defines who you are,
then I say, "You are not a good leader."
You are not a good leader because you are not a whole person.
Every day you should be shaping your destiny by growing your
skill set.
Sure, there are “fun” workplaces. The aesthetics might make
employees feel happy to be there -- but do these aesthetics provide an
environment for employees to grow? No.
Working should be about much more than the size of your
paycheck.
Maintaining yourself and taking ownership of YOU, makes you
of greater value to an organization and…YOU are the greatest beneficiary
because you are growing.
What are you doing to
grow your whole person?
