First question: Did you get up this morning and say, "Yes, world, I'm so excited to check my inbox! Bring it on"?
Trick question! No one says this--no one sane anyway. Being a happy worker doesn't mean you love your job every second of the day; it doesn't mean you enjoy every task you're given. It simply means you're satisfied with your work and life balance, you are more productive than others, and you find fulfillment in your work.
