From the New York Times bestselling author of Maximize the Moment and Soar!—the man Time magazine called “America’s best preacher”—comes a useful guide to bringing balance, serenity, and purpose to your work life.
For those dealing with an abusive boss, gossiping coworkers, demanding deadlines, or the sheer boredom of unfulfilling work, T. D. Jakes offers reassurance that God has placed everyone where they are for a reason. And when people learn to work with Him, they’ll fulfill their true purpose—while feeling strength instead of stress. This is an inspiring volume for those who dread the day ahead, and want to turn their job into a more positive experience.
With simple, surprising strategies, ranging from Don’t expect to be appreciated to Do not pledge allegiance to cliques and groups to Always keep your song near you, T. D. Jakes shows readers how to find true success at work, and extend that Sunday spirit through the long work weeks in between.

Initially purchase this in the tape format. I listen to it everyday before I go to work for the simple reason I work with the public you have so many different attitudes to deal with on a day-to-day basis not to mention my coworkers. Gossip gossip gossip and complaining. I found this to be a source of encouragement and inspiration. Thank you Pastor TD Jakes.
