According to the Gallup organization, only about 20 percent of adults report being highly engaged in their job. In the United States, the number rises slightly to about 30 percent. But that is still 7 out of 10 people who are missing out on an essential element of a positive working life.
And for many of this unsatisfied majority, the easiest solution seems to be quitting and trying again at another job. But there’s a lot more methods to attempt before going that route. 
In this episode, we’ll outline how to love your job again through four proven methods you’ll want to try before you try working somewhere else.

At first glance these methods might seem too simple to work. But a wealth of research into “job crafting” has shown that, while these methods and others like them seem simple, their effect on your mindset at work is significant. It may not happen right away, you may have to connect with multiple customers or volunteer for a few different tasks, but over time it will help remind you of what you enjoy about your job and give you opportunities to do more of it. And that will give you a much greater opportunity to do your best work ever.
