How to give your job a new meaning

We´ve all been part of the hype train haven´t we?

Tricked into believing our lives need a balance for us to achieve true happiness, but!…I´m here to tell you otherwise.

We don´t need work life balance because work, is paramount for our life´s purpose and happiness.

I know it sounds crazy but bear with me for a second.

When we talk about work-life balance, we do so because work is something most of us run away from, because it´s something we don´t enjoy it. And unfortunately, for the majority of us, it´s true.

But, it doesn´t have to be that way.

In fact, our job is what ultimately defines our life´s purpose, so it makes no sense we should be suffering in something so essential to our existence.

So, here´s what I prupose.

1. Take a moment each day, and think about what your job is providing for you. Good and bad. List it all down and compare both columns.

2. Think about your work values: Most of the time, your job doesn´t share the same values as you. And if a relationship wont work with a person with different values, why should it work with our jobs?

3. Take some time to think about something that you enjoy, without the context of money. More often than not, we decieve ourselves from something because we think it wont work when in reality, is just our fear of failure disguising itself into something different.

Our jobs don´t have to be an activity we hate and avoid as much as possible, quite the opposite, we should be excited just thinking about it.

Sounds impossible right?

Well, it isn´t and there´s thousands of people out there to prove it.

But it requires hard work, planning and most importantly, courage.

So do your homework, analyze your job and see if it actually does something for you rather than against you.

Hope it brings some new insights on what our jobs to for us!

I´ll see you in the next one and good luck!
