How am I doing at work?

My advice is – Don’t compare yourself to others. Whatever your job is, do your best each day and ask for help when you need it. If you do that and you enjoy most days, then you may be in the right place at the right time and the experience is good. Keep in perspective what is within your control and what isn’t. Be sure to track your wins each day so they aren’t taken for granted. Then when you have an opportunity for performance review, you have your notes to work with. Even challenging situations are an opportunity to track how you turned around or dealt with a challenging situation. This can be used for your weekly meeting with your boss, performance reviews and for resumes. I always have a list of 2-3 things to tell my boss and any open questions that I have when I meet with him.

Let us pray, Oh God, thank you for our opportunities. keep us focused on today and today’s interactions. Help us to build good relationships, let go of yesterday, and let tomorrow be in your capable hands.
We ask for your peace through Christ our Lord. Amen
