Do you have a job you’d like to quit? Do you find it tiring, stressful and pointless? Or just boring and unfulfilling? Do you find yourself staring out of thw window daydreaming on warm sunny days jealous of those people who are on the beach relaxing while you put your eight or ten hours in?

If so, then this is potentially a *good* thing if you react to it in the right way.

The fact is that lots of jobs stink. Not all of them, but a lot. Trust me, I’ve got some stories from my own days of employment that would make your toes curl.

But in a way if you really *hate* your job, if you can’t *wait* to get out of the door, this can actually be a good thing.

How?

If we are to make real changes to our lifestyles then a key ingredient in this is motivation. The problem is when we are tripping along, going with the flow. When life is OK but not great. When we’re comfortable. When people say things like “yeah, my jobs boring as hell, but it pays the bills”.

That type of mentality, where people just accept whatever life has thrown at them, doesn’t lead to change. Because there’s no motivation there. They’re happy to live life at a 5 out of 10 rather than being motivated to achieve a 10.

However when you have a job you really hate things are different. Where you want to throw your boss out of the window. When getting up on a Monday morning fills you with dread. When getting a cold and ringing in sick is the highpoint of your week. Now *that* is motivation.

Motivation to get out as fast as possible. Motivation that will drive you towards your goals. Motivation that many people never experience.

So if your job stinks, try to redirect that feeling into something positive. The worse your day at work is, the harder you should work on your lifestyle business that evening. It’s like judo where you redirect a negative force (someone trying to trip you) into a positive force (where you trip them).

Lifestyle design is the route out. For every negative at work, try to create a positive step in your path to lifestyle design. This evens things up and just feels “right” at a deeper level when you start doing it. And by doing this, the worse your job is, the harder you work on creating the lifestyle you want.

And you know what they say – the harder you work, the luckier you get!
