It’s Monday, and I’m imagining all the mumbling and grumbling that is occurring in a place near you about that very fact. Mondays are a reminder, once again, that work sucks – at least for a large percentage (some say 80%) of the population. Job-haters abound to the point where it’s almost uncool NOT to whine.
Seriously? How can that possibly be? Monday comes every seven days, as does the dread and disappointment when you’re choosing to do soul-less work. And you know, somewhere deep inside you that it IS a choice, even though you might be thinking that you don’t truly have one.
I could get up on my pulpit and preach the benefits of finding work you love. There are many irrefutable benefits. I’d rather submit that your soul can be brought to any job. Your true self is dying to come alive, where ever you are right now, in this very precious moment.
What if you could bring your soul to work, regardless of the work? You do yourself and the world no favor by chugging along joylessly in work where you shrink inside. What can you cultivate from your true and abiding spirit that would reflect who you really are today in spite of your circumstances?
Are you with me?
