The Rocco Effect - Take Pride In Your Job

I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across the water to create many ripples - Mother Teressa

The Rocco Effect - Take Pride In Your Job

When we feel our work is meaningless, we feel meaningless.  When we feel our work is important, we feel important. Meaning means even on bad days, you can find pride in what you're doing.

The meaning I took from previous my jobs

Security - I was protecting people.  I made sure others could enjoy their nights.  I learned how to defuse and prevent fights. 

Retail - I learned the importance of making sure customers leave happy.  I learned sales techniques. I helped make it easier for people to get what they needed.

Comics - I don't get paid for this so these are all about meaning.  I solidify my knowledge when simplifying lessons for the comics. I help others live happier lives.  1 provide a framework to help others grow. 

Task

1. What skills/knowledge have you gained whilst at your job?
2. How does your role impact others?
3. What could you do to gain more meaning from your job?

Ask better questions

Stop asking yourself 'why is my life so bad?', 'Why does no one like me?' 'Why do I fail at everything?' and focusing on all the crap, Instead ask yourself 'How can I make my life better?' 'What can I do to be more attractive?' 'What are some smaller tasks I can easily win at?' these types of questions will allow you to think of solutions.  Focusing on what you can do to improve and actively moving towards a better future (even if it's slow) will lead to a much happier and more meaningful life. Try it for a few days and notice how you feel after answering these questions.  

The Rocco Effect - Staying Sane

We panic when there is no structure in our lives or when something breaks our regular structure.  So if your regular structure has changes take time to plan out a new one.  It will take a while to adjust, but once you do you'll start feeling calmer.  Give it a go and notice how much better your life becomes/ Video
