I really hate what I do

I really hate what I do…
I’ve heard this so many times, from so many people. It seems common these days that people spend their lives working some dead end job that they don’t even like. I’ve been there too, and I can’t stand it.
It’s only a matter of time before you’ve had it up to here. You’ll feel the pressing need to change. Something. Anything.
Essentially, this blog was created off this phrase: I hate what I do.
Do What I Love Lifestyling for the Nonconformist is also a product of this problem.
When you hate what you do, what should you do?
Stop doing it of course!
Life is too short to be wasted on something you’re not passionate about. What they don’t teach kids in school, is to pursue your dreams. When you’re a kid, everyone will tell you you can be what you want, but when you get old the realists (the pessimists) tell you to be “realistic”. To be realistic, in their eyes, is to do what they do: to slave away in misery, because it brings in a check. You can bring in checks doing what you love too…..
The object is this: Discover what you love to do, and work tirelessly in all your free time, to create your ideal future. I know nothing is really ideal, but you can claim your stake in life, and eat it too. The last thing you want to hear yourself say is “I really hate what I do”
The world would have a much less collective stress level if everyone pursued their passion in life.
If you’re flipping burgers, doing construction, holding signs on street corners, because you need the check, then I suggest you make it a priority to take one of your interests (if you have any! If you don’t, then find some) and study hard to create an occupation from it.
You’re second object is to create multiple streams of income, to afford yourself the freedom to pursue the things you’re passionate about.
I know this may sound like obvious information, but the reality is, we often need reminders. Nonconformists hate to hear, in their own mental chamber, the words, “I really hate what I do”.
Do something about it!
