  • Take pride in your work. Be grateful and realize it serves a purpose, pays the bill, and even better if you love your work. But, be flexible since most jobs are temporary and can be automated. You also never know what you might go through in life and how that changes you.

  • Don’t let your job define your happiness. If you care about your close relationships, then care about how you make them feel. That’s what matters to them.

  • To have a happy, meaningful life, think and worry less, care for yourself, stop self-sabotaging, pursue mastery and find a passion that also focuses on helping others.
