Welcome back to my channel, Scott here for another video.
Now, are you dissatisfied with your job?
Are you kind of like, Eh, you've checked out, you're not engaged, not really enjoying it?
Why am I doing this job?
I don't like this job.
Why am I doing it?
Another year goes past, what the hell am I doing?
If that's you, well, I'm going to get through four factors on what effects job satisfaction,
and I'm not talking about external things like you work in a shitty place.
The workplace is toxic, your management is hopeless.
It's boring.
Things like that.
Well, no, I'm not talking about that.
I'm talking about things that are in your control, things that you can change yourself
and take action on, because that's what I'm all about.
Now, if you haven't subscribed to the channel before, we talk about mindset, habits and
success.
Really help people who are stuck in that nine to five grob, grind, grob...
Grind, stuck in that nine to five grind do what they love.
They can wake up every day pumped, excited, enjoying life, life on their terms,
and getting paid for it.
If that sounds like you, subscribe below, hit the bell, and don't forget to like the
video.
That's going to help it in the algorithm.
So let's move forward on what the four factors are, and I have decided to call these four
steps C.R.A.P.
All right.
C.R.A.P.
C-R-A-P.
And the first one, the C, let's put it right there so you can see it throughout the video.
Can you see that, C.R.A.P.?
Hey, do you see I've got an office.
New little space, got light here.
Got a little thing, got a little thing here.
Pot plant.
Got a sign, you can't see it, that says unlock your potential.
All right in.
The first one is change.
And I don't mean change like change your shirt, wear something different to work.
Wear your underwear at home instead of wearing a tracksuit.
I don't mean that.
I mean change jobs, change business, change what you're doing so you're more aligned to
your values.
You're more aligned to your purpose, your passion, if you want to use that word.
So a lot of people doing something for the wrong reasons.
So many people, you hear about it all the time.
They go into... they go to uni, they go to college and study because their parents want
them to become a lawyer or they want them to become accountant or whatever it is, and
then they're stuck in this job that they didn't like for the rest of their life.
Or they got pressures from what they're going to look like from their friends and their
family if they leave that job and then go do something they actually really love and
take that risk so you can be happy, but you're worried about how that's going to look.
So then it's very, very common.
But enough is enough.
It's a new decade.
What a perfect time to make change in a new decade, 2020, new year, new decade.
Clear the slate.
What I want to do and create that happiness.
Create that job satisfaction.
So that is one of the major factors.
People are just in the wrong job.
So yeah, you need to make some changes.
And I talk about this a lot, but pretty much you just need to have a look at what you...
what lights you up, you like, what you love to talk about, what you like doing and write
those down, and then you kind of look at that.
Either you seek out a coach, seek out a mentor, chat to a best friend or someone that can
give you...
help you brainstorm this.
You could send a couple of texts out to your best friends and say, "Hey, what do I live
to talk about?"
If your stuck for things, brainstorm with them.
Otherwise I say get a coach.
I mean that's one of the first things I do with clients is actually make sure that they're
in alignment to their values and what they're doing so they can be happy, fulfilled, and
successful, paid for what they love.
So a huge part for... the huge reason of why there's a lack of job satisfaction.
Number two is results.
The results that you're getting in your business, the results that you're getting for the company
that you're working for.
So your performance.
A lot of the time job satisfaction comes down to how will your actually doing.
No one wants to perform poorly.
You don't want to run a business badly.
You don't want to be not getting the results, the money that you wanted to earn in your
business or reach a certain amount of people or satisfy a certain amount of clients.
Whatever your metric is, whatever your KPIs are, you don't want to perform below
what you anticipate or what is expected of you.
That is a horrible feeling.
So we know that.
So whether it's your getting pressure from your workplace or you see other people actually
performing and you're just dragging the team or it's in your business, what can you do
about it?
Well, you need to kind of look at your skillset, your application, your attitude, you need
to look at maybe your habits that you're doing and how you can improve those things.
Do you need a dual course?
Do you need to consume information and more knowledge?
Do you need to practice more?
Are you focusing on the right things?
Are you focusing on things that are going to give you the maximum results or are you
kind of just spending time on things that aren't contributing to that?
So you need to kind of prioritize what you're doing.
It's probably a good idea as well to tie in what performing at a high level, what is that
going to give you?
So if you actually get a pad and paper and write down performance, performing better
in my job, performing better in my business, and then next to that put how is this going
to actually...
What are some good things that can come from performing better and just write those things
down.
Then you've got sort of more leverage, I guess, more reasoning as to why performing better
is going to be a good for you, because it's definitely going to be better for your job
satisfaction, your business, your success, your happiness, your wealth.
So if you're performing better, you're going to earn more money.
So it's a worthwhile exercise to go through that and do that.
Speak to your manager if you're in a place that you... where you're working and
you want to increase your performance so you can increase your satisfaction, speak to them
about how you can skill up, speak to someone that's already doing it really well.
So if you're in a sales environment, for example, then take some time with someone who's at
the top of their game.
Pick their brain, see if you're [inaudible] and listen to some of their calls.
So just find ways to up your performance.
And I know that's a bit of heavy lifting.
I know it's a bit of extra work.
I get it, I've been there, but it's worth it.
Any if you have your reasons why performing better, what it's going to do for you written
down, then that's going to be the driving force, the driving factor for you to do it.
Scott: So if it means that performing better is going to enable you to make more money
so you can set a life up for your family or buy a property or what is it going to enable
you to do?
So you might have buy a property, set up my life for my family, buy that car that I want,
whatever it is that you want.
You want to have a list of those things because that's the leverage that you're going to use.
Number three is the a, which is areas of life.
So how are you in the other areas of your life?
How's your health?
How's your fitness?
How are your relationships?
How's your relationship with your partner if you've got a partner?
How about your family?
How about your friends?
What about say your personal development area?
What are you doing to grow and to learn?
So are you actually getting up, you're exercising, you're eating the right foods,
are you meditating in the morning?
Not that that's for everyone, but what are you doing to contribute to your over all wellbeing?
Because that has a direct correlation to your happiness, to your fulfillment, to your success.
And you need to make sure that you're at least filling up the cups in these areas as well.
And if you're a two in health, well, sorry to say but that's going to really... that's
going to hurt you.
So if you're grinding and grinding and grinding it hard at your business and your other areas
you're not focusing on, that's not going to help you.
So we need to look at what's the whole package and what areas can actually work on and put
into my schedule, into my week, to do.
And I get people say they don't have enough time to do this, they don't have time...
but you know what?
I don't believe that.
I think that there's people that are disorganized and organize.
There's people that are efficient and not as efficient.
And I know that some people have it really tough, I know that, but generally people can
fit time in.
They can prioritize to fit these other areas in to ensure that they've got a nice well
rounded package to have fulfillment, success and happiness in their life.
So life mastery in all areas can bring that enjoyment.
And you'll find that...
I know because I've tried stopping things, good diets up.
For example, for me now this month I went on a super healthy diet, pretty healthy
anyway, but I cut out the extra things after the Christmas feasting and what are we now?
We're a couple of weeks into January?
I feel amazing already.
I feel more energized.
I don't need to sleep as much and I pretty much can go the whole day.
I can do 14, 15, 16 hours straight if I wanted to.
And that incorporates me getting up, doing my stuff and then hanging out with kids for
a bit and then just smashing out my work, talking to clients, being enthusiastic when
I'm talking to my clients and coaching, and doing videos and have energy just all around
application and loving it.
So it can be tricky to do that if I don't have my diet right and I'm not going
to the gym and I'm not doing my cardio, if I haven't groomed and built good relationships
with my partner, my friends.
Had the right circle of people around me, have a plan for wealth accumulation and being
happy with that because your getting results in that area as well.
So all of this is making a happy life, and that is contributing to me being satisfied
with what I'm doing.
Obviously I'm aligned to my values.
I'm doing what I love.
But on top of that I've got these things in check as well.
So have a look at the other areas of your life and that's going to go a long way with
you.
And the last one, the P is perspective.
What is your perspective of things?
Have you got a good perspective on what is going on at your work?
What's going on in your business?
What's your mindset like?
What's your attitude?
So are you someone that might have entitlement mentality?
Check out this video here, whatever it is.
I did a whole video on entitled mentality.
Are you actually thinking that you're entitled to things that you're not yet?
If you've been there for a week and yet you want to go for a management job when you have
had no management experience, and then you're getting pissed off with yourself and feeling
like there's no satisfaction because you're not getting what you want.
Well, you've got to kind of have perspective on how things are happening.
Have you got a clear and realistic targets in place that you can work towards?
What is your attitude and application to your job?
Have you got perfection, procrastination?
Are you trying to get things done perfect to a tee and just end up sabotaging yourself
because you're not happy with the work that you're doing because you're always trying
to get it perfect and that stunt your growth rather than just take action, learn, assess,
take the feedback, boom, let's grow again.
So what is your attitude?
What is your perception of things?
Are you being unreasonable or are you putting false expectations on itself?
You got to be asking yourself these questions.
What is mind perception?
And is it in sync with reality?
So all around, you want to look at C.R.A.P., and see what you can do in your
life, in your work with your mindset.
Do you need to change jobs?
Do you need to enhance your jobs?
Do you need to change things?
Go through the C.R.A.P.
Process and I still laugh every time.
It is the C.R.A.P. process and see what you can change and evolve.
Because as I said, this is 2020, the start a new decade.
Let's roll.
What a great way with the mind to think fresh and get it started.
So do it.
Good luck with it.
