四個條件讓你愛上自己的工作

Want to Love Your Job? Fill These 4 Needs
如何愛上自己的工作?需要滿足4個條件

If you're feeling less-than fulfilled by your job, you're not alone: only 13 percent of us are engaged at work. Everyone else is waiting for Friday (and hoping against hope that this weekend, like most, won't be consumed by work emails). Why are things so bad for so many?
並不是只有你自己認爲目前的工作不能實現自我價值，只有13%的人是在全身心投入工作的。其他人則是在等着週五之後的週末（並且他們和絕大多數人一樣，不希望週末被工作郵件所佔據）。爲什麼事情對於許多人來說這麼糟糕呢？

"Demand for our time is increasingly exceeding our capacity -- draining us of the Energy we need to bring our skill and talent fully to life," write Tony Schwartz and Christine Porath at The New York Times. "Increased competitiveness and a leaner, post-recession work force add to the pressures. The rise of digital technology is perhaps the biggest influence, exposing us to an unprecedented flood of information and requests that we feel compelled to read and respond to at all hours of the day and night."
Tony Schwartz 和 Christine Porath在《紐約時報》上面寫道：“對於時間的需求遠遠超過了我們的能力範圍——我們沒有精力在生活中發揮自己的技巧和才能了。日趨激烈的競爭和經濟蕭條之後的勞動力，增加了工作壓力。影響最大的或許是數字技術的出現， 因爲數字技術讓我們在空前的信息流面前暴露無遺， 並且使我們不得不隨時閱讀信息並做出迴應。”

Schwartz is CEO of a company called The Energy Project, which helps businesses improve employee engagement. Working with Harvard Business Review, the company surveyed 12,000 white-collar employees across a variety ofindustries. They found that burnout is pervasive, affecting workers at all levels, from the newest entry-level hire to the top key to improving employee engagement, their research found, is satisfying four core needs:
Schwartz是精力規劃公司的首席執行官， 公司主要是幫助企業提高員工的敬業度。 公司與哈佛商業評估機構合作，對不同行業的12,000位白領進行了調查。調查發現懈怠工作是很普遍的，這種倦怠存在於各個層級的員工之中，範圍可從基層員工到高層領導。調查發現，提高員工敬業度的關鍵在於滿足四個核心需求：

ical: having the opportunity to recharge at work.
1.身體方面：在工作中有機會充電。

ional: feeling valued for your contribution.
2.感情方面：認爲自己的貢獻有價值。

al: being allowed the space to concentrate on important tasks.
3.腦力方面：有自己的空間去集中精力思考重要的工作。

itual: having the sense of your work's connection to a higher purpose.
4.精神方面：要感覺自己的工作是與更高的目標聯繫在一起的。

Your job doesn't need to fulfill all four of these needs; even when one need is met, engagement and performance improve, and levels of perceived stress decline. But if your job satisfies none of these requirements, it's time to ask yourself if there's something that you can do to change that -- or if it's time to start looking for a new opportunity.
你的工作並不需要完全滿足這四點要求； 即使是滿足一方面的需求，工作敬業度和表現也會得到提升，而且各種主觀壓力也會隨之降低。 但是，如果你的工作不能滿足任何一方面的需求，那麼就應當反思自己是不是可以改變這種狀況，或者是不是該尋找新的工作機會了。
