Here’s what to do:

First: Assess your engagement at work.

If you’re measuring engagement in your team, check out your own results in isolation.

Otherwise, schedule a self check-in once per month to rate how you’re feeling out of 10.

Pay attention to any trends.

Next: if your engagement is lagging, take action.

Make changes so that your work is engaging and enjoyable.

Not sure what changes to make?

Make things more enjoyable by getting clear on the people, activities or commitments in your life that generate your peak positive and negative feelings.

For this, try Tim Ferriss’s Past Year Review.

Finally: if your engagement is fine?

Work on it anyway!

Prevention is better than cure.

Parting thought: understand that this is not a selfish act. It ultimately benefits your business or organisation and your team members as well.
