So, my last post about trying to find other options was a success.
I got a job, I got away, I 'moved on'....to the department right next to mine.
I got the new job, as was apparent from the last sentence fragments, but where does that leave me?
Where does that leave any of us?
You get to a 'goal' (of sorts) and where do you go next?
When the goal is money, there is never an endstate, and in my case, I didnt get any more of that with this move so i essentially have the same issues, plus more issues I am not yet aware of since with moving comes change.
At least constant shit, is constant.
Change is constant, but the consistency of change is not constant.
But back to money.
There has to be a better goal or you will never reach that goal. Those are words to live and die by.
I've, along with many other 100ker or the less of us, have, but its not until one chases love that contentness is found.
Its been said and its certainly overused and cliche, but thats because its true.
You MUST love what you do.
Or you will fail, continually, without change.
There must be an element of love in your work that keeps you striving for any work to be successful or its all for not, and for the most part, unproductive.
A paycheck is a good thing. A paycheck isnt a bad thing.
But it isnt the only thing.
I can't imagine the percentage of those who love, or love aspects even, of their work to those who do not, but that percentage is one I must research because its pertinent to the life equation, and must be very low.
And one would assume if you are to spend 100k plus, and going, on an education that there must be some love.
But education is difficult, not because learning is difficult, but because its never ending and attempting to learn one area in a matter of several years is not possible, but it is possible to determine an estimation of the level of love for a job. But thats an expensive experiment.
Specializing is the society we now live in, so to think a general formal education, no matter how specific, can lead to endless opportunities or, more so, avenues. Obviously it is up to any individual, whether weighed down by 100k plus debts or not, which is with no exception, emotionally draining at times, to determine to what extent they utilize that opportunity.
Just like 'love winning', Love must win over Money.
