just want to share an inspiring email i received about work and us, workers

WORK and YOU

FIRST:
Don't get the idea that you are ATLAS, carrying the world on your shoulder. The world would go on even without you. Don't take yourself so seriously.

SECOND:
Tell yourself that you like your work. Then it will become a pleasure, not a drudgery. Perhaps you do not need to change your job. Change yourself, and your work will seem different.

THIRD:
Plan your work-work your plan. Lack of system produces that "I'm swamped" feeling.

FOURTH:
Don't try to do everything at once. That is why time is spread out. Operate on what wise advice from the BIBLE. "This one thing I do". (One part at a time, we can accomplish any goal set for ourselves. Today, I will do one small task that will contribute toward the achievement of a life goal.)

FIFTH:
Get a correct mental attitude. Think a job is hard and you will make it hard. Think it easy, and it will tend to become so.

SIXTH:
Become an expert in your work. It is always easier to do a thing right.

SEVENTH:
Practice being relaxed. Easy always does it. Don't press or strain.

EIGHTH:
Do not put off until tomorrow that you can do today. It only makes tomorrow's job harder. It piles up on you. Keep your work on schedule.

NINTH:
At the start of everyday, PRAY about your work. You will get some of your best ideas that way.

TENTH:
Take along your "UNSEEN PARTNERS". It is surprising the load He will take off you. GOD is as much home in offices and shops as in churches. He knows more about your business than you do....
