"Find something you love to do and you’ll never have to work a day in your life.”
Harvey Mackay, author
In other words, it’s easier to work in something
you are passionate about (it wont feel like work at all) than to be
stuck in a 9-5 job that you don’t mind and sometimes hate.
Although this option isn’t always available for everyone (social
situation, money restrictions, vacancies, etc…), the trick is to have a
positive attitude and build up some passion about your current work.
Any trade/office job has its secrets and its benefits. To make it
easier on you, dig deeper. Become an expert in what you do even if you
didn’t like it at first.
The more you know, the easier your work
becomes and the more you’ll end up enjoying it.
People hate their job for many reasons (Too complex /
Not interesting / Pays little / etc…) and they won’t make the effort to
fully understand it due to lack of interest. By changing your attitude,
the job you hate will become easier and more appealing thus less
annoying. I’m not saying don’t pursuit your ultimate job, I’m saying
don’t spend your days feeling bitter about what you are currently
working on. Your ideal job will come sooner or later; the road to it is
full of pit stops in few inconvenient places but necessary to tune your
skills, sharpen your mind and to gain experience. I worked in not so
“normal” places; sometimes I didn’t enjoy it at all for different
reasons. I ended up learning how to deal with a moody boss, a
frustrated customer and to take charge and run a meeting. At the time,
I couldn’t really see all the benefits but i made sure to have a
positive attitude.
At the moment, I find myself deeply satisfied with the way Careerbox.net is progressing! I'm just enjoying it and it doesnt feel like work at all!
All in Attitude! Build up a passion about it and embrace the experience.
