    About this ebook

    Turn every workday into a source of satisfaction with this treasure trove of 101 ways to improve productivity, minimize stress and find happiness on the job. For example:

    #34 Smile

    Do you smile at work? If not, you may be confusing your serious look with professionalism. The reality is that not smiling just makes you look unhappy.

    #41 Take Ten

    The next time you can't get started on a task or project, tell yourself you will only work on it for ten minutes. Chances are you'll stick with it once you've started, but even if you move on after ten minutes, you will have accomplished that much more.

    "This book offers a collection of simple yet powerful ideas to turn every workday into a great workday."—Jeff Anderson, VP Product Management, FranklinCovey

      Reflect back to the time you accepted your position. What were the aspects of this job that were important to you then? Try to remember how excited you were about these.

      Now list ten reasons why you still like your job. Keep this list where you will come across it occasionally. When you do come across it, stop what you are doing and read it.

      Write down five things you would really like to see happen to you this year. Make sure these cover physical, social, romantic, career, and spiritual areas.

      File this list in a thirty-day file that you can refer to every month to check your progress.

      Do the things you dislike most about your job first. Then reward yourself by doing the things you like best about your job.

      Determine one thing you can do to make better use of your salary this year (e.g., start a 401K, increase the percentage you already contribute to your 401K, cut down by half how often you go out to eat).
