It's hard not to agree that in their words lies the truth. How many people feel unhappy because they have to deal with unloved business. But at work we spend most of your life! But few people think about how to find a new job. Why tempt fate if this (even hated) work every month is stable salary?
Even if you are in search of and, why you are looking for a new job in the first place? As a rule, because of the low salaries. That is the fundamental impetus to the search are money, not a favorite thing. Do what you like - not to the economic realities of today, many believe. And aphorisms about your favorite business suit only to write them on the magnets that attach to the refrigerator. Meanwhile, recently conducted sociological studies have revealed that only five percent of Russians are satisfied (note, do not like, but just satisfied!) With their work. And what is especially sad, more than sixty-four percent of workers under the age of twenty-five are dissatisfied with their work. That's just terrible!
And how are you? That is exactly you are reading these lines. Are you unhappy with their work? Or are satisfied, but do not like? Do you feel being in some kind of trap chosen from which you do not find it possible, as long as does not change the economic situation? If so, we want to invite you to reflect, to slightly change your point of view.
If the work is not like

What are you doing with the rest of the day? Perhaps you are doing something exciting, loved? It is doubtful! More than likely, that the rest of the time you spend on the road, shopping, cooking, washing, cleaning, raising children, caring for her husband. At best, sit for an hour in front of the TV or at the computer.
Agree - if you think about it, it becomes downright scary. We run around like squirrels in a cage, do not get satisfaction from what we do. And because life goes on, time is running out! Is it worth a life that is disgusting? We want to help you change your thinking. Of course, this is easier said than actually done, but we will try.
