Your Work Shouldn’t SuckBy Cory Miller

Work is not a four-letter word.

For most people though, work sucks ...And that’s just a tragedy.

Be happy with work. Be happy with life.

Work should be about passion, purpose and people.

Discover who you are, what you do best and enjoy most.

Some tips for happy work ...

‘Money jobs’ are prison cells ...Just ask your parents.

Contentment is found in who you are, not what you own.

It’s about people, stupid.

Avoid Bitter Bob and Betty.

Try different jobs on.

But make things better, wherever you go.

Give your best, or go home.

Recruit your friends.

Find a mentor.

Multiply yourself.

Be a sponge and eat dead trees.

Watch your dashboard.

If you can’t find the right work, CREATE IT.

Be happy in your work ... or don’t ruin it for the rest of us!

One parting request:
