My decision years ago has been to either work a corporate job as a scientist and earn a good amount of money, or choose poverty and try to survive as a novelist (I come from a poor family). As a shy person, I couldn´t imagine "marketing myself" in order to sell my books/artwork, so I joined the corporate world - and hated it ever since. Noticing how much I hated it right from the start, I started to save up the vast majority of my income and invest it in order to retire early. This will hopefully come true soon and I will leave the corporate mess, but I might have lost my passion for writing after all those years in the treadmill. Also, I sold the best years of my life to the rat race and spent this time in constant stress and low quality of living. I have no advise to give - if I´d be 25 again, I again wouldn´t know how to decide.

My thoughts: Finding your values, what you consider important in life is a foundation for many things, including choosing a work Then, find your values. Ex: freedom, harmony, community (being with people) You like many things but no matter the job you choose you will dislike part or the whole. Now you think how you want to live following your values. How much you need to have the lifestyle you want, how much cost the things you would like to experience. *Don't make your job the main part of your life* Your job is to be the main money input machine, but not more than this. You can be a painter, but just work as painter part of your day. Along the day you can paint but it's not more your job, it's your studying, hobby, your resting, you have no obligations. Or you can be a painter, and after the job hours, you go play guitar, write songs or stories, or go to sell candies(flowers etc) with your friends or family members or alone. You can gain money with it, but you wouldn't do it for money. You can like to talk and convince people, to walk on the streets with a purpose, or to teach a younger family member how to be responsible by herself. You can work at a office in a company, but you can also be a photographer, go to walks with your cameras, publish good photos on blogs or be a KZbinr. You can be a volunteer teaching some sports or instruments, or taking care of pets. There are many many many possibilities. And even your job, your main money income machine, can change along your life. Be aware of yourself. Have open options, experiment along your life. Think "oh, ok, I will work on this company for the next 10 years, in this time I need to save enough to 1 year of "no job", and while working I will write my story, my blog, photograph the park and some travels, or sell things, or I will learn to code and try to do the game that I want to play etc etc" Obviously your velocity doing the things and improving on them will be slower than if they were you main focus. You will have less time and energy, but that will pay off. Summary: *Find your values* They will decide many things in your life. Ally your choices with your values. *Decide how you want do live* Think how you imagine yourself living, what you want to experience, to do, what people you want to meet, where you want to live. And how much it all costs. This will decide how much have to be your income. *Don't make your job the protagonist of your life* No matter what your job, even if it's something you like. Make others things too, if your job can be a hobby (singer, painter, game player) then let them be a hobby for some time of your day, forget your obligations. *Don't think your job as a life work* When you choose a job, a career, you are not stuck at it forever. You can change your mind, and you should be prepare to it. Plan it. You must aim to have a minimum of financial freedom, in the end money is the reason why you would have a job, right? Hope it helps.

One of the biggest challenges in life is finding the sweet balance of enjoying what you do and making good income. But sometimes because of society's perception on what matters more than the other, certain occupations are overlooked, like the arts and humanities in comparison to medicine and other natural sciences. For this reason, people sacrifice personal joy and contentment for money and survival. It's fucked up because the system perpetuates us to prioritize what's lucrative over what makes us happy.
@tangbein3 жыл бұрын

@@tangbein I agree, that's also true because a good-paying job can make you happy but it's also not the same for everybody. I see many rich people who feel drained; some who feel like work is making them mechanical. And having a hobby while doing it as a job kills two birds with one stone.
@ezrasyn67063 жыл бұрын
better make a hobby of what you love, make a living of something that puts you in a position in society. dont let your life be-“i never did what i liked”- rather-“i became a better version of myself, i ranked up and did it on my own”. arts are underrated because as much as it makes you happy or gives you a mood when you look at it, it doesnt provide nothing else. life is about sustainable things, not hypothetical or some emotions that past as fast as you walk the door. i buy a painting, it s nice, but i dont give a shit 1 hour later, it s just sth i udes to pleasure myself and didnt even make me happy enough. being open minded doesnt make you spiritual, society doenst give a damn, it s just not enough like arts dont give you enough to enjoy. a world where such domains are more appreciated it s a world where you are lost more than now in your mind and emotions

@Luís Andrade Yeah, I get what you mean, and I actually agree. But right now, it does appear that I prioritize work because it aligns with my priorities. It's kinda rough, financially speaking. So, begrudgingly, work is a need whether or not I find it fulfilling. It just sucks because I do try to not make it a big deal but work is something you do almost everyday, so it's hard to not let it inundate you.

Work produces things. It takes skills to produce those things. Satisfying work makes you happy producing said thing. Thus, to find satisfying work you need to: 1. Understand what skills you need to produce the thing that makes you happy. 2. Learn those skills. 3. Apply for work that exercises those skills. 4. If you aren't satisfied, it could be environment related. Look for another area/industry that exercises those skills. Otherwise, perhaps what you thought was satisfying isn't what you thought or has changed upon learning more. In that case, rinse and repeat. We need a School of Life on implementing the right environment that organically grows satisfying jobs.

Yes, this is not a step-by-step tutorial BUT: Finding satisfactory work is something as specific and subjective as there different personalities, interests and talents on this planet. So of course there can't be a tutorial on how to find satisfying work. BUT (another but, yes): Still I believe this video definitely can help to reflect ones own path, ones current situation and ones own individual goals (what these might be is really up to each individual). So having this in mind you can actively look for satisfaction in whatever situation you're currently involved in. I'm sure self-knowledge and self-determination are the keys... (I am aware, that there are extreme situations, where this doesn't apply) And yes, this video is a beautiful piece of Motion Design and Illustration 😍😍😍

If you were living by yourself in a remote island you could think only about what you like to do the most and spending your whole free time doing that (but that wouldn't be that much time, since you would have to survive and do absolutely everything you needed in your life, no buying, just making by yourself). The more people you put in the island the more you can specialize in what you like to do and trade your productivity with the others to save time, since you can just do what you do best and not every single thing in life. But you can't expect they will like or value the things you do just because it's important to you, also you can't force them to trade their productivity with you if they want something else. Economy is not about finding what you like to do and force the whole society to give it as much value as you do. It's about finding what the others want, what they seek, what they would "buy", what they would trade their productivity with you. It's being less selfish and look at the people around you and their needs/wills. You can do whatever you want, is it really possible that every single thing you would like to do as a profession is garbage to the other 7.5 billion people in this planet? If you don't need much money to be happy, great! But if you do, then what are you giving the society in exchange?

A first job at a fast food place is actually pretty great I think. Standing up all day for the exercise, you have to learn many different jobs and people's personalities and it is a good place to make all those beginner mistakes. The main perk is the food you can bring home at the end of the shift and during breaks in customers. Much better than a min wage job in retail in my opinion. Plus you are never alone dealing w the weird customers like you would be waiting tables.

This video is incredibly problematic in it's titling. The video itself speaks only about the problem and offers no real solution. The title promises a solution without really requiring a narrative about the problem.

the motives are nothing like most people have, this video feels really out of place and gives very little advice. The properly way to love what you do is respect yourself first, respect your peers and profession. Have a PROPER work-life balance, integrating your job and schedule to your daily life. If you work from home give yourself a nice office, invest in a good monitor and chair. If you are happy with what you do, be more open to the people close in your life about it, let them know what you do and how you like it. If you have a jerk boss or mates, talk to them and resolve some of these issues. If your job gives your a hard time then focus on yourself and try having an open mind for getting another job. Get yourself some nice clothes, give you a confidence boost, smile and be happy. sleep properly at night, stop being so late in the computer, you need to rest and be properly fed in order for your brain to work. Cut off bad habits like constant gaming and drugs, as well as bad friends. Then you will realize it's not your job what you hate, but the poorly balanced life and place in which you are in. Damn this video was lame.

Nice comment. Yeah, job is not the main thing. Even if it's 9-5 the person have more 7h awake, even on the way she can enjoy life, even on the hush hour. It's about mind, our atitudes and how we react. I know that it's not simple, but it's possible. It's not about what we do, but how we do and see it.

Also I guess there really isn't anything wrong with having a career that doesn't fulfill you as an individual. We all need people (or robots) to fill positions to make our communities function. If we think of a job or career as service to others, we can be proud of our contribution to society and still have our own time off the clock to fulfill our own personal desires and interests. The issues around work arises when we are not compensated enough for our work to be able to survive AND have a life outside of work (ex. an individual not being able to support themselves off minimum wage at 40hrs a week or less). We also sometimes have crazy expectations where employers expect their workers to work so many more hours than necessary even if the employee would be making enough to work less during their week and still getting all their tasks done (ex. generally workers become more efficient over time and need less time to get the same tasks or more done). There needs to be an actual work life balance in people's lives and I don't think society is quite there yet. Hopefully that will change soon if we demand it to be so.

Each of us should work on bettering our quality of life and focusing on things that add value to our living, than things which take away the value. Only then, we can collectively add value to the market we are working for.

Oh, if I may, the video seems to encourage a loyalty to the native predilections within; even in circumstances that might scorn them. That this would encompass, among many other things, satisfying work, is the implicit example the title affords us.

This video was lost to me and I usually enjoy these and find some deeper understanding and comfort. This video in no way explained how one can find satisfying work. It was more depressing than anything. It basically says our society consumes corprate drival and thus we are all trapped in producing for pay said corpratized drival. I came to the conclusion of this years ago myself and realized there is no way to have satisfying work due to these things. Short of getting a windfall of cash or lucking out and having your own business succeed against the odds of a corprate dominated society, we're all trapped in unfilling work that most certainly causes us to have to "sell out" and go against our own ethics. We are forced to sacrifice happiness and our own ethics simply to survive in this world. None of this video helped in any way to show how to break out of this rat race. This could not have been more misleading of a title.

*How to Find Satisfying Work!* Answer -> Restructure society 🤔🧐 Could also just try to focus on finding meaning in the moment and not defining yourself by the things you do to earn money to live. My work could be dry as hell, and I'd love my coworkers and that'd be my favorite job.

I think the solution is finding work that carries some meaning for you, or at the very least, reframing how you view your work so as to give it meaning to your life. It a hard exercise of your work is in a factory line but for most cases, you can probably look for a better fit in your job or not take it too personally when you're not being rewarded by the market as you think you deserve to be rewarded subjectively.

I think part of what makes a good job is one that can support you but doesn't overwork you. I would honestly rather earn more time (ex. working 4 days a week instead of 5) than earn a raise.

It seems like a lot of people are looking for a simple answer and missing the point here. Finding meaning in any context can be hard work and quite personal, and it all begins with understanding yourself, the world you live in, and your dynamic relationship between it all. Understanding this better will help you play an active role in finding meaning rather than being pushed around by the currents of everything around you feeling lost. That’s just me tho
