When you can’t hold value to what you are doing?
When it goes against your values?
When the people you deal with work against your values?
When the work system is diametrically opposite your method of work?
When your work isn’t important to those around?
When your well-being is a matter of words but not in practice for your bosses?
Any of the above is my answer.
On the flip side, when do you decide what’s right for you?
When there is nothing else you’d rather be doing than this little piece of work that you’re born to do. It may be the tiniest cog in a vast wheel, but it’s all you can think of doing. It feels so important that you cannot let a day go by without regret that you haven’t set your hand to it.
Well said. There are some things we have to do because we live in a society and we need to feed ourselves. But many a times, people confuse their jobs with their lives. Jobs are just social obligations, and you are lucky if you find a job that you really love! At the end of the day, we just need to do things (good things, of course) that make us happy 🙂
Your blog reminded me of an article I had written almost 10 years back!
