What I am working on: New Employment

This post by rapper Blueprint reminds me of why it's so important to be working on what I am working on, getting a new job.

"This lady was having a bad day – and probably has them very often judging by how she dealt with it – and her energy was contagious. Clearly, she is unhappy with her job and needs to be doing something else for a living.  As to what that “something else” is, I have no idea.  Only she knows.  I only know that she needs to change asap.

The entire experience made me think that if you hate your job, you should change it.

Not just for yourself, but because of what that kind of energy does to everybody around you.  I only dealt with her for 15 minutes. I could only imagine what her family and friends feel like after dealing with her when she gets home every day from that job.  It’s very easy to view being unhappy or depressed as something that only affects us, but that’s far from the truth. Energy is contagious; positive and negative.  Meaning, the way we feel and the energy we project effects our reality and the people around us.  A negative attitude is cancerous, metaphorically and literally.  It spreads into the people around us and brings them down, and it can actually cause you to get physically sick.  That’s all bad."

My perspective on many things is totally skewed by the fact that I am not happy at my job currently so I am working, for me and for those who have to deal with me, to change that situation.  I write gratitude lists, say affirmations, and apply for jobs like mad to help change my energy over to the positive.  Upward and onward!
