If a person suddenly says that he loves his job, he will definitely be looked at as a fiend. Get out, you evil spirits, because it is a priori impossible to love work. But the public is wrong again - work should be fun. For some reason, very little is said about this, and people think that going to some kind of job and getting paid is normal, and everyone does it. Whether you like the job or not is of secondary importance, the main thing is to have something to live for. This approach is fundamentally wrong.
What is your favorite job?
So, what is your favorite job? This is a special type of activity that a person can do every day and receive a good profit and moral satisfaction for it. Work that brings pleasure will never seem hard or boring; even if something doesn’t work out, a person will strive for victory with unprecedented zeal. Just remember Henry Ford: now no one can say for sure how many sleepless nights he spent in the basement of his house, trying to assemble a car that would become accessible to everyone.
Of course, not everyone is born a genius; not everyone can go down in history as a researcher, inventor, writer, etc. But everyone should have a job that brings them pleasure.
How does public opinion influence a person?
It is worth noting that any activity can bring pleasure, and this is not something to be afraid or embarrassed about. True, today there is an opinion in society that it is extremely important:
- Earn a lot.
- Have a personal car.
- Be the boss.
Actually, it is only because of this that a person is defined as successful, but whether he likes his activities or not is of no interest to anyone. There are many people who are doing something completely different from what they really wanted. For example, the owner of a restaurant chain always wanted to do photography, and the director of an advertising agency that swallows competitors without chewing loves to grow flowers and wanted her to have a small flower shop.
Why haven't they fulfilled these desires yet? It's simple: no matter how successful they are, these are also people who have an inherent fear of the unknown and public opinion. What can we say about simple office clerks?

Obviously not on work.ua If such a person has realized that he likes to work as a killer (that is, he has already had his first experience), then the necessary contacts will be found. z.y.

Is there communism here? It’s just that there are professions and positions. For example, they can be divided into two categories: 1).creative 2).fighting the investigation. For example, Doctor, I hope there is no need to explain? But why drive a tractor? All professions appeared because people have different perceptions of the world. Problems due to disagreement, not understanding what and how to do, how everything works, that if you are not one hundred percent sure, it is better to ask someone who knows or not to meddle in none of your business.

And this word itself means to be part of something.... whatever you like))) to be part of a family, part of a friendly team, part of a cash flow, part of a community, a closed club, an elite, or to be a soldier in the army))) be more open to YOUR HAPPINESS!

Happiness may not = work, but it really is somewhere close to this concept. What do you understand by happiness? Yacht and endless cruise? But you need to watch the yacht, know it, study it, look after it. If you have a team for this and you spend time idly between ports, then you either don’t like sailing (and you won’t enjoy it, which means it’s not happiness) or you will engage in diving, fishing, studying the cultures of the fish and plants you encounter. And this, in turn, for some is nothing more than tedious work (for example, a diving instructor, fisherman, ocean scientist). That. you will do very complex work that requires considerable qualifications and experience for free!!!! And for friends and relatives you will also pay for them and instruct them. I see that work is somewhere close to happiness, although of course it’s impossible to put them on equal terms.

Have a nice day, everyone! Let me remind you of the realities! The new employee works efficiently and proves himself. At the interview, no one said the phrase “I might be late.” No one said, “I’ll dig.” No one said that he needs social networks 4-5 hours a day. Time passes...... What do we have? The percentage of work during working hours tends to 20%. And what next? Bored at work, forced to work, etc. Articles about additional earnings? People start doing their extra work during working hours..... Then everything becomes clear..... Dismissal - the company is bad, etc. This is not a dogma, but it happens often. I'm not talking about the framework of one company. Next, learn how to write a beautiful resume. And all over again. A way out of this circle? A similar situation in the game “Rat Race” - can you get out of the circle of work and into your own business? I always invite employees to form a company and hire me. For some reason it doesn't happen...

If you ask employees to form a company and get hired, they will never do it. For one simple reason: everyone will try to look for the extreme. No one wants or doubts to take responsibility. That is why such a power as the USA manipulates the world. responsibility lies with that country and it successfully uses it.

Fair, of course... But here’s the question: do your employees, working diligently and honestly in your company, have the opportunity to provide themselves with a financial cushion to start their own business in at least 2-3 years? Or, by working hard over the same period of time, save up a significant portion of the amount for housing or a car, while still providing for your daily needs?

I can quickly throw out a few ideas for such work. However, yes, it will not bring you millions right away on the first day however. Option number 1: conducting live broadcasts from various festivals and concerts through a service like “Vertu”, 2: creating commercials to advertise concerts of not very popular groups and collaborating with their manager. 3: a boring but current way to make money through YouTube. 4: creating T-shirts/cups/bags with logos of famous bands and selling them directly. 5: (one of the most brutal and difficult) creating your own rock band. 6: (the toughest, almost illegal) creating hug pillows in the form of members of popular groups. There are many options. Yes, they require considerable investment and a lot of effort, but believe me, everything is simpler than you think. (Yes, I know that each of these ideas can be criticized to smithereens, but they popped up in my head literally while reading your comment, so blame her) Have a good evening.
- Answer
There are reasons for this
Work should always be fun. Firstly, a person spends most of his life at work (about 40 years, or even more). Secondly, unloved work has a negative impact on the psycho-emotional state, which subsequently leads to the development of various diseases.
Researchers have found that if a person does something for a long time that he does not like and is monotonous, then he becomes drowsy. Usually sleep is needed for the body to rest, so drowsiness appears in a person when he is tired. This is a completely natural process. But if drowsiness is a constant, round-the-clock companion, then chronic fatigue syndrome may develop against its background. It, in turn, is characterized by sleep disturbances, frequent headaches, frequent infectious diseases, the appearance of various types of allergic reactions, inflammation of the lymph nodes, pharyngitis, muscle pain and an emotionally depressed state.
You must be willing to do more than necessary.
Some circumstances at your job will require you to sometimes do more than necessary. At certain times during busy seasons, you may be asked to perform certain tasks that are not part of your daily activities. It's much easier for you to jump into extra work if that's something you actually care about. Because you are passionate about what you do, you will be willing to go the extra mile to go beyond what is required of you.
Inability to open up
Work should be fun. Otherwise, a person can easily become depressed. In addition to the fact that an unloved job affects your physical condition, it also greatly disturbs your emotional background. Each person a priori has an inclination towards a certain business. But the inability to manifest them, the lack of a way to express oneself and the need to constantly persuade oneself to do something else lead to a decrease in efficiency and complex negative emotional states.
A person does not feel significant, in demand, satisfied with life, etc. And then alcohol and other bad habits come to the rescue. Work should bring pleasure, then there will be no time left to waste life aimlessly.
How can a person understand that he is doing what he loves?
People who enjoy their work have several distinctive characteristics:
- They are ready to devote every free minute to what they love, and they don’t get tired of it at all. Your favorite activity is always a priority.
- It is easy for them to concentrate on completing a task. If a person is passionate about the process, neither colleagues’ conversations, nor loud music, nor renovations in the neighboring apartment will disturb him.
- A person constantly strives to learn something new and develop.
- The work done brings a charge of positive emotions. A person may be tired physically, but not mentally. The result of his work inspires us to conquer new heights.
First steps
So, we are already firmly convinced that work should be fun. It’s good if a person has found his calling, is busy with a useful and favorite activity and, as a result, is satisfied with life. But what about those who have not yet decided? Or made a mistake with your place of work or profile? Fear of the unknown, lack of stability, negative experiences and many other negative thoughts often prevent you from taking the first step towards a better future. As many assure, this is the most difficult thing that had to be done subsequently.
It's simple: to start a new life, a person needs to change his attitude towards it, as well as his thinking. If you are afraid of the lack of means of subsistence, it is worth accumulating some capital for the first time. To start a new life, you need:
- Be decisive and don’t expect someone else to do everything for you.
- Never look at others, give up the idea that everyone lives like this. The majority of the population does not consider their life happy at all.
- Get rid of the fear of failure. Yes, there is no person in the world who would always do everything correctly and successfully. Everyone has failed more than once. This is fine.
Have you gathered your courage and strength? Great! Let's start taking action!
Tips for happiness in activity
- Most of our actions are automatic. We are driven by habit. Create a habit of enjoying your work.
- Take one most relevant area to work on. For example, “learn from work”, or “be in the flow”, or “find meaning in what you do.”
- Now set a specific goal in this area: “learn to enjoy making cold calls and closing deals in 10% of conversations” or “be in a state of flow when writing regular reports.”
- Choose a simple practice for this purpose: “after each call, write down the answer to the question “What did this client really want?”
- Find a fun and easy way to track your progress. “I rate each conversation on a scale of pleasure from the process, and at the end of the day I sum it up.”
- Important: if you sincerely and actively tried for 2-3 days and feel “it’s not working”: don’t scold yourself - change your practice.
- The test criterion for any “happy practice” is simple: “does it give you energy or not?” Use this criterion and you will find your practice.
- With whom can you share your findings and successes? Who will support you in difficult times? Assemble a support team for happiness activities.
- Give yourself time. Even a good practice turns into a habit within 30-60 days.
- When you feel that one of the habits has been mastered, add a new practice of happiness in activity.

Rules for finding your job
Should work be fun? Definitely yes. Therefore, you should not spare effort in searching for the type of activity that you will truly enjoy. There are people who have many interests, and there are those who do not have even the most basic hobby. Therefore, the first thing you need to do is decide on your inclinations. Find the activity that you do best and that brings you a lot of satisfaction. This can be done in different ways. For example, you can use different psychological techniques or simply try something new, act at random.
Of course, the first method is the best option. Psychological techniques will show a person in which direction to move. If he simply aimlessly changes one type of activity to another, he will have to look for himself for a very long time. For example, you can write on a piece of paper all your desires - from the most cherished to the ordinary. Select ten items from this list, and from this ten, select three “leaders”. One of them will be the thing to which a person devotes himself entirely.
When a person has decided on his abilities, he has to figure out where to direct them. He can get a hired job, or he can open his own business or become a free worker (freelancer).
An important point is a comfortable environment. Many psychologists say that work should be fun. This also applies to working conditions, and not just the process itself. If it’s hard for a person to wake up early in the morning to go to the office, you can organize a job that would fully correspond to the body’s biological clock, for example, go freelance. It is important to remember that nothing will be enjoyable if you do it in an uncomfortable environment. Therefore, when choosing what to do, it is important to think about where it will be most pleasant to work: in the office, at home, or while traveling frequently.
Low salary
This is the main reason that motivates us to look for work.
When the salary is not enough to satisfy our usual needs, when the salary is not enough to support the whole family, it is necessary to take some action to improve the situation.
And if you have already used all the saving methods that you can read about on our website Sizhu-doma.ru, but the situation still does not want to change for the better, then it is time to look for a new, more lucrative job.
Although, you can try to ask your employer to raise your salary or ask to be transferred to a higher and, accordingly, more lucrative position. Of course, the amount of work performed will increase. If you are a valuable employee for the company, you will not be denied a promotion. Or they will offer an alternative option.
Obstacle and reward
If a person has already decided on everything, has gained enthusiasm, optimism, and is ready to act, this is wonderful; the first, most difficult steps have already been taken. But he should realize that not everything will go smoothly. After a period of elation, there often comes a period of despondency. It’s as if a person’s batteries have run out and he becomes apathetic. This is also a normal phenomenon that is common to all people. The main thing is to stay motivated, and for this you need:
- Don't put your plans on hold.
- Communicate with those who believe in you.
- Rest.
- Set realistic goals and deadlines.
- Reward yourself for any achievements.
