Today is National Boss’ Day, according to my calendar. I joked with my friend yesterday that seeing as I work for myself, I should send myself flowers and a card. I love fresh flowers, so maybe I will! It did get me thinking though, how often I have joked in the past about working for the worst boss in the world. When others complain about being overloaded with work or not getting a raise they believe they deserve, I have joked about how my boss (me) way over schedules and underpays me.

If our words have power, it is time to re-think those statements. Perhaps, it is time for me to start saying aloud, I have enough time for all the activities my boss plans. My boss gives me plenty of time to refresh and enjoy the service I render. I also want to remember a Bible verse I heard my father quote many times while growing up: “Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men.” Colossians 3:23

I remember my father whistling as he worked around the house. He always spoke with pride about the company he worked for and the responsibilities they trusted him with. He was clear that he worked the hours he owed them in fair exchange for the pay they promised him.

When I stop and think of what I do and how much I love the changes I am allowed to observe as they occur, I feel truly blessed. My days are filled with authentic moments, isn’t that how I want to live my life?

When I think about payment, I have to remember the Law Of Attraction. Is it really smart for me to state how cheap my boss is? I wonder if the Universal Intercom System is on and my words have been overheard? YIKES! All of my needs are met and I have many luxuries in my life as well, so I guess the Universal Bank Account has been plenty generous with me.
