Service In The Workplace




In trying to become more mindful, one has to take an attitude of service.  This does not mean that one has to be either in a superior or inferior demeanor.  Treat everyone that you come in contact as a messenger from Deity.  This can even be done at work, no matter where you work.  I work in what is called the service industry, in the retail sector.  I sell products, but what I am truly selling is pleasant experiences.  I am not out to be phony or insincere to others,  I treat everyone who comes to my store as a guest, coming to see me or to solve a problem.  I personally keep in mind that this person could have been sent to me by Deity; I will never know which one.  So I strive with everyone to treat them like the drop of Divinity that they are.  This will keep fatigue, boredom and anger at bay.  It definitely helps one grow compassion.  It surely has been proven to lower anger as well.  If it does become trying, which at times it would, lay this at the feet of Deity, give up all negative emotion with it.  Breathe, thank Deity for the lesson, call on them for support, and move on with the day.  If one keeps the Divine in mind at all times, one cannot lose one's way.
