We are no longer in the 20th century where a job with a bulging pay package was considered a Life ban gayi (A guarantee of a good life).
Life is much more than an uninteresting job in a small company somewhere on a small rock floating somewhere in an infinite space.
Being meticulous about your job is important but living your life meticulously is more important.
#1: Money is not everything, Satisfaction is:
An unpleasant job may help you buy a luxurious house, expensive couch, costly clothes, and much more but it will also mean dealing with a mind preoccupied with tensions.
Happiness is in small things, we don’t need fat pay packages to be happy.
Good music, movies, books, regular travel trips, and anything else you need for your soul will not require much money but will definitely need time which you are struggling with now.
#2: Partial happiness:
We think that even though the job is unsatisfactory but we still have weekends off.
So, why not adjust?
Making adjustments is good for small things but adjusting to something which takes 10 out of 16 hours of your responsive mind is not adjusting, it’s Self-murder.
Applying our general attitude of more in everything, why settle with the “partial happiness” in the form of weekends when we can enjoy the entire life.
It’s up to you to remain contended with the wait for the weekends or to enjoy the process of making of you and take breaks according to yourself.
#3: Your hard work your money:
For those who like working hard, trust me working hard for your own venture will be much more fun because every penny you make will be yours.
There will be teething problems but you will gradually win over them.
You will be the boss. So, no more hounding for the incentives.
Why face the music instead of making hay when the Sun shines?
See. life is only once, there is no point wasting time in trying to patch up for just working in a small company on a small rock floating somewhere in an infinite space.
Find something which fills fire in you and brings out the ‘your name” in you and buckle yourself down to that.
There are hundreds of self-employable job opportunities out there
So, what is deterring us from breaking the shell?
It’s our habit of looking at the seamy side of everything.
It’s because in the process of growing up we have been continuously losing an original part of ourselves to the wet blankets out there
We have just got into the habit of accepting everything in the name of fate.
The word ‘fate’ must have been invented by the second rate citizens of the world who have just accepted their miseries.
You just need to reinvent the lost zeal in you and begin slowly. This is the most difficult part. Once, you do this,70% of the work is done.
We should have realized by now that we cannot fit everything in our small framework of logic
Don’t let your logic outdo the possibility of life.
Just take a decision, stick to the guns, there would be weal and woes but trust me you will take joy in every part of it because every penny of your hard work is for yourself.
