Staying happy at work - a definite possibility!

 "Happiness depends upon ourselves" - Aristotle
Happiness is well-within us and looking for it elsewhere can never make you happy. So strictly avoid things that hurt or irritate and focus more on doing things and being around people who keep you sane and happy, and you'd be surprised how much more buoyant you will start to feel.

 A little of something you love
Find out what it is that you love most about your current job and start making sure that you do it religiously on every single workday. Because when you do something you love everyday, you will definitely start to realise that your current job is not really that bad after all!

Pursue Growth
Stay focused on learning and expanding your horizons, it should be you who takes effort. Developing professionally demands a lot of time, effort and firstly planning on what more you want to add to your credentials. Become more open and receptive to changes and opportunities, which is the first step towards personal and professional evolvement.

Embrace Positivity
Every time you do something well, just go ahead and ask what your boss thinks. Even if it can't get you an immediate raise (in some cases miracles do happen) it will at the very least make your day and keep you in a good frame of mind. Stay positive and you will certainly be surrounded with more positivity and good cheer.

Stay in the loop
Make an effort at all times to keep the information channels open and stay in the loop of things. If you show that you're interested, it would obviously make people take notice and keep you informed at all times.

Commit only when you're really sure
When you have made a commitment to deliver make sure you do it on the set date, however if even have a minuscule doubt about keeping your promise, make sure you do not fix a timeline at any cost. Save yourself a lot of wasted energy and anxiety by being reasonable and carefully calculating the delivery lifecycle, before you offer your word and peace of mind.

Steer clear of negativity
Make it your agenda to stay far away from things that can hurt your sentiments. Listen to music, take a walk, meditate during breaks, do just about anything that can perk you up, even when you're not at work and this sure will translate to a more positive you, no matter where you are or who you're with.
-
Stand up for yourself
Make sure to stand up for yourself, without coming across as harsh or overbearing. Everyone has the right to make themselves heard from time to time, as long as your reason and cause is right, make an effort to voice your opinion politely and cordially, and experience for yourself how much of a relief it can be.

Build a network
The best way to start would be to make an effort to get to know colleagues better and if you find people who might have the same interests, work on building a good amiable relationship for a start.
