Seriously – Are You Passionate About Your Work?

0

We’ve gotten so used to hearing that well over 3/4 of us are not happy with our job, work or business, it’s like we all know it, but the emotional impact is long gone.

Even fewer than 1/4 say that we are passionate or very happy with what we do…but what does this REALLY mean for you and our society at large?

  • 40%-50% of our entire waking lives is spent on our job, work, business – nearly half our entire life is spent doing what makes us miserable (or at least is NOT doing what makes us happy)
  • Doing work that we don’t enjoy means we do not feel we CONTROL our situation.  Lack of control over our time, energy and finances is the #1 factor leading to stress – if you have too much stress in your life, then it IS largely due to your work, job or business
  • 90% of people do not have an effective way to relax, reduce stress or otherwise put our work day behind us…which means the OTHER 50% of our “awake” time is heavily impacted by the 50% we spend working at a job we do not like
  • Stress is the #1 factor involved in reduced sleep, unhealthy immune systems, short-term and long-term bad health and emotional health problems including addiction and depression
  • When you lack control, work at things you are not passionate about, your self esteem hits all-time lows meaning that you ARE NOT confident and do not PROJECT confidence (a major factor in getting ahead in life
  • You immediately give up the #1 factor in having a focused, high-octane, high-energy lifestyle – passion…so you always feel and are one-step behind those around you
  • Negative feelings, low energy, compromised health and unhappiness becomes the NEW NORMAL in your life – the cycle becomes complete when you don’t even realize your situation any longer until something drastic happens in your life (you lose your job, you have a major health challenge, or…you die! )

Pretty bleak picture isn’t it?

But tell me it isn’t true?  If this doesn’t quite sound like your life, then take a closer look.
