How to be happy with bad boss.

Normally, no boss happens to good or bad, the situation forces him to act strictly or softly. You should test your boss on this basis. You should think about the circumstances that force your boss to deal with you strictly. It may be that you are not performing your duty honestly or meeting your boss’s expectation. Think over it, then decide whether your boss is good or bad.

1. Accept your boss as he is-  The biggest way to deal with your boss is that you should accept him as he is. Focus on the positive side of your boss. Try to find quality in him. It is not possible that only he will have weaknesses. When you try to find merits in him then you will find that dealing with your boss is not really tough.

2. Be dutiful-   Do work timely and efficiently so that your boss could not get a chance to target you. Being timely and punctual is the best strategy to deal with a bad boss. On being punctual your boss will not only be on the back foot, but he may realize his mistake. Actually, your boss wants the growth of the organization or company and if you contribute to the growth he will certainly start you like.  

3. Understand him- Sometimes we don't understand a man fully and we draw a wrong assumption about him. The same thing may be with you as well.  It may be possible that you have not understood your boss fully. Know his nature. Know his likes and dislikes. The person who seems strict from outside  may be soft at heart. You will have also experienced this in your life. So be sure, is he really bad or you have made him bad with your imagination. 

4. Understand compulsion- Everyone has problems in life. No one is completely happy. Your boss may have a personal problem. His mood may upset due to work pressure. He may be annoyed because the target does not seem to achievable. Remember your boss also works under someone and he has also to live under pressure. 

5. Try to make a good relation with your boss- Your boss is a human being. Being a human being love and hatred both will appear in him. Being annoyed with you at a particular time doesn't mean that he hates you. So try to keep a good relationship with him. Try to win him with love and good behavior. Never keep a distance from him otherwise it will be tough to work under him.

6. Keep yourself in place of him and judge the situation- Sometimes we expect too much from others. Without understanding the compulsions of the others. You may have done the same thing. Analyze your expectations from your boss.  Is your expectation logical? Imagine yourself in place of your boss and think about how you would react when you were the boss. Judge it without partiality. Would you be able to deal with your employee with peace despite being in pressure? 

7. Take it easy- Common man has a tendency to make a little thing a big issue. Are you one of them. Think over it. Everywhere problems happen. It doesn't mean that we should give up. Actually,  It depends on us how you take it. You have options to take it seriously or easily. If you take it seriously your problem will aggravate. If you take it easy your problem will lessen. 

8. Boost your self-esteem-  It is time to boost your self-esteem. The person who has low self-esteem feels offended on a little issue. He can't adapt to new situations easily. He seeks approval of others in everything so check your self-esteem and take steps to boost it. Use affirmation to boost your self-esteem.

9. Imagine yourself as an actor -imagine that you and your boss are both actors. He has  the role of a boss and you have the role of an employee. Now imagine that your boss behavior with you is the part of the role. Also, think that you are playing the role of an employee. As you leave your job in this company your role will also end. You may now play the role of an employee in a different company at a different place. 

10. Believe everything happens with a reason- Strongly believe that everything happens to a reason. If God has put you in this difficult situation, he will have definitely thought something good about you. Dealing with bad bosses successfully will make you capable to adapt to any situation.
