Surprisingly, it wasn‘t the pay or the love for the work that made people happy. Instead, friendly, supportive colleagues and a good manager have been found to be the primary causes of happiness at work. So how do you develop a sense of joy on the job? Here are some suggestions. Happiness is a state of mind, so staying happy at work is pletely based on a positive attitude towards your job. Focus on the bright side of the work rather than keep talking about what makes you unhappy. Challenge yourself and take charge of your own growth in your career. Boredom is one of the primary factors that cause people to change jobs. Find new challenges and it‘s a great feeling to take control over what you do and see a task through. Having co workers you like and enjoy working with is a feature of happiness in the w orkplace. Talk to people, get to know them and try to get along well with them in the workplace. Meeting new people and getting fresh views can help you to keep yourself interested in your work. Complete your tasks, no matter how disagreeable or tough they might be. This gives you a sense of achievement and encourages you to work towards your goals in future. Sitting and staring at your screen all day long isn‘t going to help you. Instead, take breaks and go outside for some time. For example, go out for a few minutes to feel the breeze (微風(fēng) ). Eat your lunch outside or work for a few minutes during that hour, which helps you stay happy at work. 33. Which of the following is a main cause of happiness at work? A. One‘s love for the work. B.
