That's quite enlightened and Buddhist, and certainly helps to cope with the unpleasant reality of work.
We are still trading our time and lives for money working on things that don't resonate with our values.
When fighting for survival we never questioned whether our actions fit with our values; there were no vegan cavemen. We are fortunate, but struggle with this new understanding.
- gluggymug 11y agoIf your job is completely misaligned with your values, I think making a job change is a good idea. Don't do something that isn't you. Maybe it's my particularly uninteresting values but no job resonates that much. Even if it did, you eventually have to retire. Then you are going to really be depressed. Better to not be so attached to the job and be retired happily. Or in my case get fired happily! Free money and any job you like does sound good though.
