Most people think an increase in pay or more vacation time are the answers to greater job satisfaction. A larger paycheck is concrete reward for your hard work. But, unless you are well matched in work style to your work tasks, you are not likely to be as productive, successful, or as satisfied as you can be. Worse, over time, you are likely to develop chronic fatigue, stress syndromes, and 'burn out'.
Your job satisfaction and success is directly tied to a match in your natural work style and the tasks you are required to perform. Your day-to-day life will become energizing to you if your natural style, passions and motivation are working for you, and not against you.

Worse, they can't tell how far off the mark they are. In time, this spells 'burn out'! Your mind, body, and lifestyle will pay a hefty price for a mismatch. The wider the gap in a “work style mismatch”, the greater the burn out potential! S
