I'm curious on this statement and what others thoughts are.Originally posted by killramos
I am just trying to actively make changes to move forward into something I will actually enjoy
Some definitions for clarity:
employment - the condition of having paid work.
work - mental or physical activity as a means of earning income; employment.
enjoy - take delight or pleasure in (an activity or occasion).
To what degree should a person "enjoy" their employment? Is this a requirement that is realistic?
From my experience, I had what some would consider a dream job at a younger age. After a few years, reality set in and the dream job was simply a job. The novelty wore off. At that point I was more focused on a well paying job that enables me to enjoy the time that I'm not working, evenings, weekends, vacations, quality of life, standard of living etc.
Personally, I would much rather have a "tolerable" job that enables me to live the lifestyle I want and enjoy my time off.
Thoughts?
