When you blame any person, place or event outside yourself for the way you feel, you give your power away. No one can make you feel anything. How you frame what happens to you does that. Even though it’s sometimes difficult to admit or even perceive, your experience of life is the product of the way you think about it. Discomfort for one person could be enjoyment for another. Getting conscious of how you frame things puts you in charge. The art of living a joyful life lies in…
The right frame.
Jarl and Steve
A man is joyfully doing a work say for example at gas station,and a man doing a high profile job say president of the united states..
If they both are happy doing their work
Factors that determine their happiness would be
#)the way they do their job matters
#)they both are competent enough for the respective challenges of the job
And if I happen to do a job which I dont like ,what are the ways for me to enjoy the Job at hand before considering switching jobs?how will I get into the right frame mam?say if I am a garbage collector and I don’t like my job
Love n hugs

Sarath, Find some of the things you like about the job and focus on that. Whatever you focus on (dissatisfaction or satisfaction) has a vibrational magnetism that attracts in like kind. So if you’re looking for what you do like and keeping your main focus on that, what you attract next in your work life will be in alignment with satisfaction.
Most excellent advice. When we see life as a picture, “framing” is a fabulous metaphor.
I am still doing your course, still finding both affirmations and fresh things. The fresh things are things I’ve seen before, but not with today’s eyes. Many of them are still surprising, so I think I should keep at it forever with the assumption it will always look new. I think it is an amazingly thoughtful construction on your part.
Love, Larry
Thank you so much Larry. That means a lot coming from you because we know you’ve done it so many times (and you’re so intelligent.) 🙂
The way somebody works makes them feel in a certain way that they feel work like play..someone who is an actor loves every moment of his working hours..for somebody else it could be an arena for showing his incompetence,getting humiliated..
Work has no role in this??
It’s not what you’re doing that determines your feelings, but how you do it. An actor doesn’t necessarily love every moment. There are long hours of waiting if you’re a film or TV actor and in that business there are huge egos to deal with, insecurity, etc. A garbage collector or dish washer, on the other hand may love the simplicity of the work. It all has to do with one’s frame of mind. Work has no role in this.
