Go Where You Are Celebrated, Not Just Tolerated!

“Do you work at a place where your contributions are valued?”

“Is there a good sense of teamwork?”

“Are you the shining light?”

“Did you create enough value for the company?”

“Does your boss think you did a good job?”

If the answer is a “no”, sorry, you ain’t treated with respect.

Sadly, one of the places that we often feel the least celebrated is at ‘work’. There are ups and downs in every organisation, but when you know you’re making a positive contribution, it makes you celebrate and when you know you’re here for no good and just tolerated, you need to move!

“If you don't like where you are, move. You are not a tree.’’ If you feel grumpy while you’re at work, it is evident that you aren’t happy.

You watch others get the promotion, you are not given the raise you deserve, you are excluded when it comes to taking responsibility, and you are not getting the recognition you believe you deserve. All this is because you aren’t making your achievements recognized.

Do not lose faith

Being celebrated is something so many professionals struggle with. It’s easy to think that your work should speak for itself, but it’s hard to elevate your own results. One of the best ways is to increase your value as an employee at work. Here are ways you can show your worth.

How to show your value at work

• Look at your activities to connect back to the bottom line
• Start speaking up for yourself
• Be smart with where your life will lead
• Do the job you’re happy doing it and at the best of your ability
• If you do not know something, try to find about it
• Praise yourself, but modestly
• Good conduct will save you often
• Give up the feelings of entitlement
• Get noticed for going the extra mile

The aha! moment

It’s a very appropriate saying, “Go where you are celebrated, not tolerated”. Share with us your happy moment when you were appreciated for what you have been doing or what you’ve done.

While there will always be the option of simply leaving and taking the other route but may be the same feeling will start creeping in over. So, instead, focus on how you can work smartly to bring in more results. For sure, every boss doesn’t suck. Just, don’t give up.

Make sure you’re heard!
