10 Ways to Stay Happy at Work

For decades, Monday has been considered the worst day of the week. It’s not always easy to stay motivated and even happy and smiley when you’re getting down on yourself about the deadlines, a fire-breathing boss, a huge pile of work you have on your desk or how you feel about the office as a whole. It's even harder when you are a young practitioner who actually just started a "real" career. You are getting nervous more often and giving up more quickly.

Here are a few ways to survive at work and remain happier at work (even on Mondays).

1. Start your day with you favourite coffee. Coffee is your wake-up call. It contains caffeine, a natural stimulant that gives your day an energetic start.

2. Don't forget about breakfast! Breakfast is the crucial meal of the day. Coffee and healthy breakfast is a perfect combination to kick-start your day.

3.Keep positive. Everything starts in our mind. I know it's hard to believe but happiness is largely a choice. I can hear you arguing with me now, but it's true. You can choose to be happy at work. Sound simple? Yes. So you are in control of how you feel about your work every day. Remind yourself why you got into your job in the first place and stay as positive as long as you can.

4. Stay organized. Spend some time to create your to do list every morning (while drinking a delicious coffee) and keep a restricted schedule to stay focused.

5, To much stress? Get walking—outside, if you can. Or at least close your eyes, hold you breath, count ot ten.

6. Keep your personal life at home. Try to not think about any personal problems and focus on work.

7.Take a Breather. You are not a machine, you are human. Take a lunch break. Even for 15 minutes. Sit down to eat your lunch and step away from your computer a bit.

8.Ask for feedback. Don't be afraid to ask. Find out what it is you can improve on and set your mind to improving it. Take some notes in your diary.

9.Reward yourself. Finish a horrible assignment? Grab a piece of chocolate or cake. You deserve it.

10. Make your work bestie. It’s so really essential to have that kind of person at work you can vent to. however it's not easy, you have to be very careful. Take time to get to your co-workers. Having a good people around you and enjoying working with them are hallmarks of a positive, happy work experience.
