TODAY'S DEVOTION.POSITIVE ATTITUDE IN THE WORKPLACE PART 1.

TODAY'S SCRIPTURE.“Whatever may be your task, work at it heartily (from the soul), as [something done] for the Lord and not for men,”(Colossians‬ ‭3:23‬ ‭AMPC‬‬).

A positive attitude in the workplace can help you whether you own your own business, work as an employee or manage others within a business environment. You will enjoy your work more and achieve your workplace or business related goals easily and faster.

Cynicism and sarcasm are widely prevalent in today’s workplace, both attitudes can bring you and your coworkers down quickly.  While you may not be able to control the mood of the entire workplace, you are always in control of your own attitude each day. You can use these ten tips for developing a positive attitude in the workplace:

1.Gratitude: Appreciate  everyone who does a good job and gets things done on time. In addition, appreciate those who go above and beyond what they are required to do. Appreciation feels good for both the giver and the receiver.
 
2.Celebrate the Victories: For some reason, many people tend to focus on things they don’t like and whats going wrong. Try instead to focus on things that are going well by taking time often to celebrate the victories at work. Reward yourself or praise another individual for a job well done. If you’re part of a team that does something successfully, arrange a get-together to celebrate it. If you’re a manager, send frequent notes out to your staff outlining things that are going well for the company.
 
3.Turn Problems Into Opportunities: If problems are encountered, don’t just focus on them. Instead, change your focus by asking yourself or your team, “How can we solve this issue, and what can we learn from it?” Every problem or challenge is an opportunity to learn and grow. Don’t wallow in the issue; focus on the potential to become better.

TODAY'S QUESTION/RESPONSE
Do you really want to enjoy working? Then you need an attitude of gratitude,celebration of victories and turning problems into opportunities.See you at the top.

TODAY'S SCRIPTURE ."The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican." (Luke 18:11 KJV). There are good ways to praise God and also wrong ways of doing it. Indeed high praises open doors before God but the man in the verse above praised God and his door was closed. Why? Because he did it in a wrong way. Never praise God in an attempt to intimidate and condemn others. Do not ever engage in praise and thanksgiving to show you are better than people around you. High praises ought to be with a deep sense of humility to God i.e it is by grace and not by your own effort. When your praises makes people get offended at God as if God is partial it is wrong.
