Sense of Accomplishment

by Rick Baker
On Mar 27, 2014

When it comes to work, does sense of accomplishment mean anything to you?

Do you think work is a necessary evil, devoid of anything satisfying or fulfilling?

Or, do you experience gratification when you complete a work-task?

Are you proud when your work-tasks are well done?

When you struggle with or fail at work-tasks, do you experience negative feelings like frustration, annoyance, or even anger?

Or, when your work-tasks go poorly do you feel little one way or the other?

Does your work trigger a sense of accomplishment?

If your work does not trigger a sense of accomplishment, why do you subject yourself to doing it?

Do you think your work is the place where you exchange your time and effort doing things that provide you no internal rewards for money...that is, you get paid?

If so, do you think that's sustainable?

Do you think you can carry on working without positive feelings...working on and on like that until the day comes when you don't work any more?

Will your job survive if you approach your job that way?

Will your employer want to keep you?

Whether or not you are still there, will your place of work survive with workers who approach their jobs that way?
