Most of us are ‘self stuck’ in jobs that we hate. It is a ‘self stuck’ because our lack of willpower to take risk and our fear of failure have glued us to a job that we have no passion to do. I have heard several friends and acquaintances saying, I do not like my job and the funny bit of this is that, they are not doing anything to get out of these jobs.
Success brings joy, peace and above all self pride and fulfilment. These churn out amazing feelings that settle the soul, an ingredient for long life and better human development. The opposite of these are what come with Failure.
Apart from the usual venom of being curtailed in life when stuck in a job you hate, it also affects your personal development, happiness, hope and zeal for a better tomorrow.
No matter how great or worthy your job pays you, if you hate it, a lasting success in such a job cannot be achieved. Even if it would, it will demand superfluous efforts which would not have been needed should you were doing a job you enjoy. After all these, you will still lack the inner peace, joy and self pride because you simply hate the job.
Johnny Carson realized the perfect attraction between doing a job you enjoy and success. He once said “Never continue in a job you don’t enjoy. If you’re happy in what you’re doing, you’ll like yourself, you’ll have inner peace. And if you have that, along with physical health, you will have had more success than you could possibly have imagined.”
As we start a new week, put efforts together to step out of the job you hate so much. It is slowly killing your inner peace, self development, motivation and the success you deserve.
