The surprising benefits of gratitude at work
Posted on February 17, 2017
In the course of work, we come across a lot of people. Some have us awed with the courtesy they practise, while some shoo us away the stink of incongruity of stature. There are bosses who we strive to work harder each time, the ones for whom even working till even 4 o’clock in the morning is something we gladly put up with!
Ever wondered how it came about? Gratitude! Plain, simple gratitude.
Here’s to the surprising benefits of practising gratitude at work:
-
Increases the circle of your well-wishers
Often, people forget that there can be several things going on, at once in someone’s life. Not everybody is living a live cosseted by our mothers, pampered by good food. Everybody is striving to a good life, amidst landlord battles, crap traffic and Monday blues. Everybody appreciates a boss who goes out of his way, to ensure his employees’ welfare.

Adds on to your success
As the hugely successful author Rhonda Byrne says, “Be grateful for what you have now. As you begin to think about all the things in your life you are grateful for, you will be amazed at the never ending thoughts that come back to you of more things to be grateful for. You have to make a start, and then the law of attraction will receive those grateful thoughts and give you more just like them.” Gratitude adds on to your success, by the simple measure of being grateful for all that you have.

Lesser enemies
The corporate world is not without its wagging tongues and high strung people ready to take offence at the slightest misdeed. Gratitude is the only way to win the loyalty of good people.

Loving employees
A boss who extends the simple courtesy of gratitude, is one for which anyone would go an extra mile willingly. Be it staying long hours, working extra hours or putting their best foot forward, a boss who looks out for his employees is one for which we strive to not just meet his expectations, but exceed them by a long shot.

Efficiency
Gratitude automatically betters the efficiency levels of the employees. A good boss realizes and his employees potential, and pushes them to explore their limits with appreciation and rewards! The work culture automatically turns into a ground for brilliance.
