Everyone* is unhappy at work.
*80% of the UK’s workforce is unhappy at work, according to Gallup’s Global State of Workplace report, 2023.
Negative emotions narrow our mindset, limit our creativity and make us more risk-averse - stopping us from seeing opportunities in front of us.
In this mindset, we don’t make decisions that benefit us in the long-run, but are guided by some pretty strong defaults - our emotions, the people around us, our ego, or just what’s easiest in the moment.
It’s a downward spiral that’s hard to stop. We’re keeping ourselves unhappy, and we’re worse at work as a result.
It’s probably not about work, though.
What troubles us on the surface often reveals what’s bubbling underneath. Viktor Frankl, following his experience at Auschwitz, studied how our ability to feel fulfilled was driven by two key things:
Purpose: Knowing who we are and what matters most
Alignment: Acting, behaving, and living true to what matters most to us.
Most of us haven’t ever stopped to reflect on who we are, let alone understood if we’re acting in alignment with who we are. That’s where Bright Yellow can help.
