Jeste li sretni sa svojim poslom?

Radite li ono što volite, stalno ćete se usavršavati, a ni uspjeh neće izostati.

Do this short test to see how happy you are with what you do. Does your job motivate you enough that you quickly jump out of bed in the morning? Does it enable you to express yourself and your talents? Does it leave you enough time for your family, friends and leisure activities? Do you feel like you are doing something you love?

Results: If you have answered most of these questions with “yes”, then you have found an appropriate job for you. If you have answered with “no”, you are still not doing what you love and should be looking for something else!

Lack of job satisfaction can be a significant source of stress. These are the most common reasons for not being completely satisfied with your job: conflict with your co-workers, conflict with your superiors, not being appropriately paid for what you do, not having the necessary equipment or resources to succeed, lack of promotion opportunities, having little or no say in decisions that affect you, fear of losing your job through downsizing or outsourcing.

Sometimes it is the job itself that causes dissatisfaction. For example, the work may be boring, or ill-suited to your interests, education or skills. Think about what motivates and inspires you. Consider what your approach to work is. People tend to approach work from three different perspectives. They view work as a job, a career or a calling.

JOB – If you approach work as a job, you focus primarily on the financial rewards. The nature of work may hold little interest for you. If a job with more pay comes your way, you will likely move on.

CAREER – If you approach work as a career, you are interested in advancement. You want to climb the career ladder as far as possible or be among the most highly regarded professionals in your field. You are motivated by the status, prestige and power that come with the job.

CALLING – If you approach your job as a calling, you focus on the work itself. You work less for the financial gain or career advancement than for the fulfillment that work brings.
