Job
Let's say you work a standard of forty hours a week,
you started work when you were twenty years old and
retired at sixty five.
That's ninety three thousand and six hundred hours
of your life, or a solid ten years, devoted to work.
If you think that you spend another huge large piece
of your life sleeping, work is a large part of our
survival so is not natural that we desire it to be a
happy existence?
It would appear not as I have never met 1 person,
who worked for somebody else that loved, let only,
and thoroughly enjoyed most aspects of their job.
It made me believe of a tidbit I heard throughout a
recent seminar about a review asking seriously ill
people what they most regretted in life:
The last 2 points really had a crash on me. No one
is sitting on their deathbed proclaiming, "I desire
I bought another home." or "I should have exhausted
more time in the office."
No, the are saying they should have loved more and
lived further
1 of my preferred quotes is by Neale Donald Walsch,
"How can you think of wasting an instant doing
something for a living you do not like to do? What
type of a living is that? That isn’t a living that
is a dying!"
