Most of us have heard of “The Great Resignation,” the record number of people who left their jobs in 2020-2022 due to unhappiness in the workplace. An article in Forbes Magazine from January 20, 2014, titled “8 Common Causes of Workplace Demotivation” states that most people can’t say they truly love their jobs. We’ve all heard the saying that people spend more waking hours at work than they do with their family. But wait, what if you’re one of the lucky ones whose full-time job is 40 hours a week? You still spend about 50 waking hours per week at work (factoring in the average half hour commute and one hour lunch break) vs. about 62 waking hours at home.
