Mind Over Monster

Happiness and success, both on the job and in your private life, depend on something nobody teaches you anything about - your mind. Brains are therefore often apt to just free-run, doing whatever they want with the inputs they receive, and taking us wherever they happen to drift, which often turns out to be places we would rather not be. Instead of letting an out-of-control brain be your master ... a "monster" that constantly works against you ... you can decide to take control, making your mind think rationally and constructively. You thereby become increasingly effective on the job, which leads to a much more enjoyable work experience. The dividends of that are likely to be a more highly successful career, plus an abundantly happy and richly rewarding life.
