You may feel diligent when doing your work tasks today. Your desire to be reliable and dependable could be the result of your need to give everything you do your best effort. Perhaps this would be a good time to develop your self-confidence by allowing yourself to take pride in your work. Should you at any time today begin to feel that you need to work harder in order to receive praise or feel better about yourself, you can remind yourself that everything you do contributes greatly not only to your immediate work environment but also to your community as a whole. Being proud of what you do may not only increase your confidence in yourself but it could also deepen your feelings of satisfaction about what you can achieve.

Learning to take pride in what we accomplish makes our work so much more rewarding. If we think of everything that we do, even the most basic tasks, as contributing to the betterment of society, our work then takes on even greater meaning for us. When we look at our work in this way we begin to realize that our usefulness is not only in what we can do but also in our attitudes toward what we actually do. Work then becomes a vehicle for expressing ourselves to others by fully utilizing our skills and talents. Developing pride in your work will allow you to see that the things you do can be gratifying for you on every level today.
