Going to work with a negative attitude is never going to help anyone, let alone get a promotion or help you excel at your job. A positive attitude is key to excelling at your job as with a positive attitude you’ll be more motivated and your productivity will be higher. If you are happy you will get along with your team members better and talk about your job in a better light.
Be a team member
There is nothing more important at work than being a team player. Your team is essentially your work family and the better you all work together, the better you can progress in your career. Help others with tasks when they’re needed (such as when they’re sick, on holiday or just have an excessive workload) and the same will be reciprocated back to you. By working well together, it will make the atmosphere a lot more positive and your workplace a more enjoyable environment to spend time in. You could arrange a work night out where you can get to know each other better, or perhaps ask your boss about a team building day.
