A good attitude may save your job

I came across a great article in the Christian Science Monitor titled, “Be happy and keep you job,” that explains how a bright disposition helps workers navigate darker times.

The piece points out how employees with dour or sour attitudes are likely to be axed first because of the negativity they bring into the workplace. Workers with cheery outlooks and likable personalities were likely to hold their position, even over peers who were more proficient or talented, but less positive.

The article is a useful reminder that attitude and outlook matters and has worth and value.

So, when you dress for work today, be sure to put on your happy demeanor! It might save your paycheck.
