10 Signs You Enjoying Work

Are you an entrepreneur or office worker, you probably spent less than 8 hours a day at work. If you add the travel time from home to work and vice versa, may be 10 hours a day.

Say you need to sleep eight hours every night, that means from the time available, you spend about 63% of your time at work, or in other words, most of your life to work.

If you will spend the most time on something, you should ensure that you enjoy what you are doing. You only have one chance to live.

Here are some key signs that show you love or enjoy what you do at work:

Time passes and you do not realize.

You do something like flow and you do not realize it. Time really passes, you forget about your worries and other tasks This happens when you do something really fun (such as playing music that you like) or together with someone you care about.

This also applies equally to the work that you really like. Time was fleeting and when you knew it, it was dark.

And the important point is that you do it all with a sense of joy.

You feel like you are doing something worthwhile. You feel satisfied.

Humans are happy when they connect with others, and also when they leave or create something of value. Not necessarily in the sense of being a doctor who can cure cancer (of course it would be a wonderful thing!); it could be as simple as being a motorcycle taxi driver or whatever other people want or need. Whatever the job, you feel very grateful for being able to help and serve others. You already gave an idea, talent or best of your ability.

This is something that defines how someone who is happy with his life, and how you too can be happy every day.

You are excited to wake up in the morning.

If you do not rejoice when you wake up in the morning, something wrong may happen. Of course, everyone has had bad days in his life. But if you are constantly afraid to go to work, it might be time for a change.

Whatever work you do, it should be able to make you excited to get up in the morning and move quickly.

Subordinates and superiors is seen as a partner to provide and produce something.

When you see your colleagues rather than as people who simply do you ask, then you are in the right place. You should see them as a partner where you and they can make something great. Maybe you're not a boss with a high rank, but you believe in what you do, and you like that you have to fight together with them realize what you have you want to become a reality.

You do not complain

Many people complain about their jobs:
"It's too early to do."
"It's too much."
"I do not like people who work with me."
"I hate what I do."

If you are constantly complaining, you need to change your mindset (begin to appreciate what you have) or you immediately look for another job where you are more able to enjoy.

A job you enjoy though, you'll never complain about the workload or an irritating task. But overall you know that it was just a small hurdle compared to the happiness that comes from doing what you love.

You do not mind if you have to struggle

Work can be a struggle. Authors suppose to spend hours and hours to edit and have to work every day. The artist can produce paintings and instantly throw it into the trash. Engineers create a design that is wrong and must be re-calculated the numbers.

But when you enjoy the work, you do not care, because you like struggle. You with joy bounce back and reworking to get what you want. The final aim is to produce something amazing to appreciate it.

You feel energized when you talk about what you are doing.

When people ask, "What are you doing?", You excitedly tell me what you're doing. It is a sign that you love what you do and you want others to know.

You feel that your work reflects who you are

Work is not a job when it is no longer a means to an end. The perfect job is reflecting something in you, and make you able to produce stunning output quality. You express yourself and feel amazing with the results of your work.

You find yourself interested in the additional things that actually are not assigned to you.

When you really enjoy your work, you certainly want to learn about your company or things that you may not directly responsible for it, but in general they relate to your job. Even if you do not need to do certain things, you want to study them further.

You feel tired at the end of the day, but you feel satisfied.

There is a big difference between feeling tired from doing a lot of work to feel tired because you indeed struggled mightily in doing your work with willingness and enthusiasm high. If you feel fulfilled, satisfied, happy, and to produce something of value when you work and make you tired, then you have to do it right.

Remember always:

Your work will fill a large part of your life, and the only way to truly satisfied is to do what you believe in, which is a big job. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you have not found it, keep looking. Get over it. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you've found it.
