滿足這六項，保證週一上班很快樂

You know the drill. The week presses on as Tuesday rolls into Wednesday, Thursday and you’re one day closer to Friday...just like that, it’s TGIF! A little spring in your step, the weekend is finally here.

你心裏清楚的很，每週都是一如既往的向前邁，就像從週二過到週三，再到週四，然後就到了離得較近的週五……就像這樣，謝天謝地終於又到週五了！讓每天生活得腳步活潑有力，週末終會到來。

But, the question is this: If you truly enjoyed your job would you be counting down the hours -sometimes the minutes - until 5 o’clock on Friday? What would happen if you lived in a world where you enjoyed Monday (and everyday of the week, for that matter)? What if you actually looked forward to returning to work after a relaxing or even a hectic weekend? You didn’t get the nagging and aching Sunday night blues and instead, you enjoyed your weekend to its fullest and then you commuted to work on Monday looking forward to returning to your job and its challenges and rewards.

但是，問題來了：如果你真的很喜歡你的工作，你會倒數幾個小時——或幾分鐘的時間——直到週五下班的時間嗎？如果你生活在一個喜歡週一（或就此而言，喜歡一週的每一天）的世界裏，會發生什麼情況呢？如果你真的希望在一個輕鬆的，甚至一個忙碌的週末之後重返工作呢？你沒有感覺到週末晚上的鬱悶和傷痛，相反，你最喜歡你的週末，這樣你才能在週一乘車去上班時，期待着回到你的工作，並面對隨之而來的挑戰和回報。

What if I told you this was possible - feasible, even? If you love your job, here are the things you look forward to on Monday mornings.

要是我告訴你這是可能的，甚至可行的呢？如果你熱愛你的本職工作，你將會期待週一上午能發生這些事情。

1．You’re employed! Remember during the recession if you weren’t downsized and your employment remained intact, you were pretty much grateful to be employed? Be grateful on a Monday morning there’s a job to return to with a steady paycheck on its way.

1.你被僱用了！記住，在經濟衰退期間，如果你沒有被裁員，你的工作也是保持不變，你應該非常感謝被僱用了吧？感謝週一上午可以重返工作，有一份穩定的薪水可領。

2. Job satisfaction. Taking it one step further, yes, there’s nothing wrong with being grateful for a paycheck and steady job, especially if your weekend depleted your bank account, but how about a job you truly enjoy? You feel recognized and appreciated and your skills are being utilized on a daily basis. This is a crucial piece to happiness at work.

2.工作滿意度。更進一步講，其實你感謝自己有一份薪水和穩定的工作並沒有錯，特別是當你在週末花光了銀行卡里的錢時。但怎樣的一個工作纔算是你真正喜歡的呢？在工作中，你得到認可，受到讚賞，你每天都在利用你的技能。這纔是工作滿意的關鍵。

3. Co-workers. Your work family is key, especially since you spend more time with them than your actual family and friends. If you’ve ever had a stressful weekend or perhaps one with an unruly schedule that flew by in the blink of an eye, you’re likely thankful when Monday morning returns to check in with colleagues at the coffee station to say hello.

3.同事。你的工作夥伴也很關鍵，特別是當你和工作夥伴在一起的時間比和家人朋友在一起的時間還多時。如果你度過了一個緊張的週末，或者週末的日程安排不確定，時間轉瞬即逝，那麼你可能十分感激自己週一早上能重返工作，能在咖啡小站碰到同事並互相打招呼。

4. Your boss. We all need to know someone has our back and a fantastic boss can provide the support we need, as well as resources to excel. Although they may be in meetings or work in another office, in essence a Monday morning means you’re returning to a meaningful position with leaders who want you to grow.

4.你的老闆。我們都知道工作時要有人支持我們，一個不錯的老闆可以提供我們所需的支持，以及擅長的資源。雖然他們可能在另一個辦公室進行會議或工作，但實質上，週一上午意味着你要和老闆一起回到有意義的位置，他們希望你能不斷成長。

5. The feeling of accomplishment. Yes, that feeling of a job well done as you reap the reward of success, knowing that your diligence and persistence truly pays off. This is especially rewarding if you’ve overcome challenges and managed to grow during the process.

5.成就感。的確，當你獲得成功的獎勵時，這種工作的感覺很好，這讓你知道自己的勤勉和堅持真的獲得了回報。在這一過程中，如果你克服了挑戰並能夠成長起來，這是非常值得的。

6. A positive work environment. Many job seekers overlook this, but corporate culture and environment are important to not only your success but to your happiness. When you are a part of a positive environment that applauds ideas and innovation, chances are when Monday rolls around, you’re psyched to roll up your sleeves and get back to business.

6.積極的工作環境。許多求職者都忽視了這一點，但是企業文化和環境不僅對你取得成功很重要，而且對你獲得快樂也很重要。當你處在一個積極的環境中，鼓勵創意和創新，那麼你很可能在週一到來之際，興奮得捲起袖子，重新投入到工作中來。

While it may feel like #TGIM is pie in the sky dreaming if you don’t have all of these items in place, you can certainly be happy on a Monday when you have the majority of what matters most to you intact. (For instance, maybe salary isn’t as important to you than your gratitude for flexibility with hours and location.) It’s time to celebrate our careers and more importantly, our jobs on a Monday!

雖然上面的任何一項你都沒有，#TGIM（謝天謝地今天是星期一）對你來講也不可能發生，但是當你擁有了絕大部分最重要的東西時，到了週一你一定會很開心。（例如，對你而言，工資可能不如靈活的工作時間和地點重要。）現在該慶祝我們的職業生涯啦，更重要的是，慶祝我們在週一的工作！

So, what if you aren’t satisified with your job and Monday morning feels more like drudgery and doom and gloom? And what if your co-workers, your boss, the work environment and the job itself lead you to feeling downright allergic to your job?

If you’re not feeling #TGIM when Monday rolls around, simply stated, it’s time to find a better job. Often times job seekers tell me that after they landed a new role, their one regret was not looking for one sooner when they knew they were unhappy or knew their skills were getting stale.

若到了週一，你並沒有#TGIM（謝天謝地今天是週一）的快樂感覺，那麼簡而言之，你該去找一份更好的工作了。求職者經常告訴我，在他們找到新工作後，他們的一個遺憾就是沒有在覺得不快樂或是清楚自身技能無法提高時，及早地尋找一份工作。

What I’ve seen first-hand as a former corporate recruiter is that a better job awaits as soon as people are open to pursuing one. As the interview process commences, one question to ask yourself involves the #TGIM factor - will I be happy here and grateful to return to a job I love every Monday? What do I need to be truly happy, what are the driving forces of why I’m looking for a better job and how can these new opportunities fit my needs? How can I achieve happiness and sustain that satisfaction and gratitude throughout the entire week?

作爲一名前企業招聘人員，我親眼看到過，一旦人們願意考慮去追求工作的快樂，一份更好的工作將會等着他。面試開始時，問自己一個關於#TGIM（謝天謝地今天是週一！）的問題——我很開心在這兒工作嗎？很感激每週一能投入到我愛的工作中去嗎？我要怎麼才能真正的開心？爲什麼我要尋找更好的工作，驅動力是什麼？這些新的機遇是如何滿足我的需求的？在整週內，我該如何獲得快樂並保持滿意和感激之情？

Happiness beckons you on a Monday morning but you have to be willing to leave the Sunday night blues behind and search for a better tomorrow.

當你願意把週日晚間憂傷拋諸身後，尋找更好的明天，快樂將會在週一早上向你招手。
