"know when to walk..know when to walk..know when to walk..away"


havent blogged in ages, been super busy at work (okai, no i am lying) but i have been super busy ruminating over work, life, politics, etc.

Working is just too hard, and the more I think about it, the more I feel I should be a travel writer or join some social service, or just study further.

Come to think of it , i dont think you can really truly madly deeply love work. Can you? C'mon stop and think, are you enjoying your work? Now now, dont give your self all that bull crap about its a learning experience, it'll add value in the future. Admit it, you just work for pay cheques . You and i we both do.

and on all days, when you get up and go to work and leave work with a smile, your just rationalizing, .. your rationalizing that effort you just put in.. when the truth is when you do what you really like, there is no effort, there is no need to rationalize.

Don’t get me wrong though, I am not lazy, and I have ambition... oodles of it! There is just no drive, which in my opinion is different from ambition.

So how do we know when we like our work? You dont, you just figure it out. In my opinion, you never get there; you just jump from one job to another (let compensation justify most of your descions). Its kind of like relationships, when your in one, you always feel there is something better out there.

But, the silver lining here is uncertainty and restlessness that comes with this, which allows you to make sudden decisions which will impact you lives and makes you a better person.

Problem is ..., how do you know when you are making the right decision??
