Workplace Choices: A Labor Day Musing

I believe we all have choices every day about all aspects of our work …..and that the choices we consciously (and unconsciously)make have the power to either expand our spirit….or to destroy it. I am continually amazed at how many people tolerate working in dysfunctional systems …..or in toxic workplace cultures, of for mean-spirited power hungry immature bosses. I know there are many factors operating that may reduce ones awareness or perception of choices. Nevertheless, I have come to believe that even in the most oppressive environments….consciousness of choice instead of consciousness of victimization is the key to being able to grow spiritually.
