Stay positive

保持积极的心态

Use positive thinking to reframe your thoughts about your job. Changing your attitude about work won't necessarily happen overnight. But if you're alert to ways your view of work brings you down, you can improve your job satisfaction. Try these techniques:

积极思考来重塑自己对工作的看法。工作态度的改变不是一朝一夕的事情。但是如果你能警觉让你对工作失望的看法，你就能提高工作满意度。 试一试下面这些技巧：

* Stop negative thoughts. 停止消极思维。

Pay attention to the messages you give yourself. When you catch yourself thinking your job is terrible, stop the thought in its tracks. 注意你给自己传达的讯息。当你发现自己认为工作糟糕时，立刻停止这种想法。

* Put things in perspective. Remember, everyone encounters good days and bad days on the job. 看远一点。别忘了，每个人在工作中都会有起有伏。

* Look for the silver lining. "Reframing" can help you find the good in a bad situation. For example, you receive a less than perfect performance appraisal and your boss warns you to improve or move to another job. Instead of taking it personally or looking for another job right away, look for the silver lining. Depending on where you work, the silver lining may be attending continuing education classes, working closely with a performance coach and having the satisfaction of showing your boss you're capable of change. 看到好的一面。“全新的思维”能帮助你在逆境中发现好的一面。例如，你的考核评定为“不算完美”，老板让你注意去提高，否则就要把你解雇。不要认为这件事是针对你个人的或马上就找新的工作，你要看到好的一面。工作的地方不一样，好的一面也会有所不同，你也许可以接受持续教育培训，或者和业绩教练一起工作、向你的老板展示你可以改变、从中获得满足。

* Learn from your mistakes. 从错误中学习。Failure is one of the greatest learning tools, but many people let failure defeat them. When you make a mistake at work, learn from it and try again. 失败是最好的学习工具之一，但是许多人却因为失败而一蹶不振。当你在工作中犯了一个错误，从中学习，再努力。

* Be grateful. 学会感恩。Gratitude can help you focus on what's positive about your job. Ask yourself, "What am I grateful for at work today?" If it's only that you're having lunch with a trusted co-worker, that's OK. But find at least one thing you're grateful for and savor it. 感恩的心情能让你关注工作中积极的方面。 问自己：“今天工作中有什么让我去感激?”既使答案只不过是和自己信任的同事一起吃午饭也可以。 但是，至少找出一样令自己感激的事，然后去体验它的滋味。

Whether your work is a job, a career or a calling, you can take steps to restore meaning to your job. Make the best of difficult work situations by being positive. Doing so will help you manage your stress and experience the rewards of your profession. 无论你所做的是职业，事业，还是天职，你都能做些事情来恢复其意义。带着积极的心态充分利用工作困境，这样能帮助你处理好精神压力、体会到职业给你的回报
