Contentment in the Workplace

One of the keys to contentment in your work and finding fulfillment in every area of life is learning to be thankful for what you have been given. Wanting to move forward in your career is not a problem unless it means that you take where you are for granted. As one person once wrote “If you are not thankful for what you have got, it is doubtful if you’ll be thankful for what you will get.” Contentment and peace is found in a thankful heart.

When it comes to life, the critical thing is whether you take things for granted or take them with gratitude. -- G. K. Chesterton

From a sermon by Stephen Sheane, Employers and Employees, 6/1/2010
