In today's world, in order to stay competent or to move up the ladder in the corporate world, many people feel that their job has taken too much of their sense of self, time and attention. Of course, this applies to people who does not believe in all work and no play, cos it'll only make Jack a dull boy. I guess this is why I just couldn't sit in my qb n face the pc screen the whole day- I might just die n rot there...which was one of the factors that brought me to my job today. Compare to my life now, then I could only do what I like during the weekends, which is about 6 days a month (those days, it was still a 6-day week on alternate weeks, n when u come in on a working sat, that's it - ur whole sat is gone by clearing the whole week's leftovers). And on sundays, u just have time to unwind n before u could really start to treasure that special day, mondays has rolled out.
Thus, the words "When work no longer works"..yes, we do need to work in order to pay the bills, for everyday's meals, for a roof over our heads, n in order to keep the world going. But surely, u can't devote ur life to the company u work for. If ur working time is 9-6 everyday, it takes up abt 1 third of ur day, not to mention the time going n coming back. N u work most of ur adult years til u're all dried up to give anymore. So u end up giving about 1 third of ur life away....
The golden question would be: wat gives u fulfillment, ur lil daily work accomplishment, or smtg tat is beyond tat.
"My life..My loves" will refer to the loves of my life, which i will go into step by step. Step Up Life will unfold what works - for me.
