“I hate my job”, how often are you saying this? While driving to work do feel an overwhelming feeling to take off in the other direction. Why do you think that you would have that feeling? Could it be because your work does not reflect your soul’s desire? I know that we need to make money and support our families, and ourselves but it is not a happy life, if we dread most of our days. And not enjoying our work is dreadful.
I have dreaded work many times in my life. Even though in the last few years I have taken extreme measures to make sure that my life is resonating with my soul, it still happens. If I try to take on too much or if I take on a client just for the money, my soul let’s me know with feelings of anxiety, dread and illness. So I have become much better at making sure I don’t do the things that cause my soul to act in such an extreme way, but they still sometimes slip through.
How do we find work that aligns with our soul? It is really the easiest thing in the world to do. Do what you love, what you are good at and what you have a passion for. What comes naturally to you? We have been so trained in this machine of a society that we live in to not love our work. That work is just a means to make money, and most people don’t like what they do, so suck it up. You can help stop this insanity by doing what you love. I know there are those of you that will say that this is actually the most difficult thing to do in the world, but you are wrong.
Your soul knows what it needs to do; you just have to let your brain get out of the way. What were you before you were told what to be? As a child what did you love to do, what were you complemented on or what were you told that you had to stop doing. Spend the time thinking and writing about this and you will soon find your passion again.
Once you find your passion the energy will be overwhelming and you will need to begin your new journey. Doors will open and close and you may be slightly disoriented but don’t worry, your passion will keep you on the right path. This is not to say that you will not come upon difficult times, but you know that it is just the path of passion, which comes with elations and disappointments. You do have to be ready to jump off the cliff of the machines security, but it is not real anyway.
Are you ready to jump off the cliff of dread into the sea of passion? If you’re not sure ask for help, there will always be help for people who are willing to ask. You just have to find the right person for the job.
