3 Does your doing work for you and others meaningful?
Anyone who can constantly answer all three questions positively will find and feel happy through and with his professional duties. A professional who can always answer yes to these questions will feel satisfaction.
Appeal makes happy
Work Life Sense assumes three components, which were addressed in the three initial questions. A vocation is important because every person can only be happy if he recognizes, implements and lives the intuitive mind and therefore his vocation. In the Work-Life-Sense approach, hereafter WLS, these three components are represented:
W = requirement filling
L = liveliness
S = meaning
Where are they standing?
Before you start a reorientation, i.e. make a fundamental career decision, a location assessment will be helpful. "Before I voluntarily leave my job, I would like to know what price I have to pay for it," said a senior consultant who received a severance payment from her employer.
The personal inventory questioned whether the workshop on the professional reorientation and the design of a magnetic change concept already make sense.
What are you afraid of?
However, at the beginning, keep a watchful eye on the part of you that is resisting the change. Life is a single process of change. In the history of humanity, peoples have made steady progress.
As soon as their own homeland no longer promised enough food for the further life, the people had to decide. Previously, it was necessary to know that there would be a shortage in the long term.
Globalization - a gigantic change management
This is still the case today: Europe is fenced on its borders and protects itself from immigrants from other continents. Well-trained workers from southern EU member states are moving with their families to northern industrial regions.
The loyalty to the homeland and the connection with the comfort zone are given a different place in the case of food shortages. Globalization has triggered nothing but a modern migration of peoples. However, it emphasizes one-sidedly the component Work in the phase of the reorientation.
Work relationships and happiness live: 3 tips for the balancing act
// By Katharina Antonia Heder
Many people have problems, relationships and (dream) jobs to get under one roof. Because the balancing act between self-realization and private life is not easy. And does it have to be?
Who are we and where are we going?
For some months I have been dealing with the question of who she is, this generation of me. Melancholic say I'm in the midst of quarterlife crisis and looking for meaning - so close to the 30. Birthday certainly not abnormal.
That would be too brief for me. In fact, other questions concern me: who are we, where we go and why we seem to have reinvented life. Three questions, countless answers and here comes my attempt at an intermediate.
A life for work?
I am currently catching a cold. Just means the fourth day in a row. I think I have a fever, cut my life and cough as I work as if I were a chain-smoking. I am doing all the important things of my profession. I understand myself not only as a service provider.
I live it. Many people around me do not understand why I work while I'm sick. One answer is: I love the work I do. Another is: I am self-employed. The truth is somewhere in between, allowing a glimpse of my generation.
Life to express yourself
On the contrary, Michael Nast wrote for the online magazine about the generation incapable of relationships. One of the contributions that gave me goose bumps because it outlines exactly which Wenns and Abers we are caught between. One of the paragraphs that stayed in my head was this:
The generation of our parents had a profession AND a life. There was a separation. After work they cultivated their private life. Today it is fused. A job is nowadays more than just a job, a profession has the claim of a vocation.
Actually, a factual statement that well sets the life between long-term accessibility, social networks and personal obligations in a framework that fits. But this frame is more: it is about the claim of a generation to itself.
The search for the optimum
Nast attaches great importance to linking the professional challenge and the own relationship status. He gives various examples of why people are single. In fact, what he himself describes is more fitting: it is complicated - and in every way. We are not easy. We push each other too. We want partners who complement us and the internet suggests that we can find them at the push of a button.
The same is true of our professional future: We only have to look long and well enough, then we find a better, filling and well-paid job. The number of those who are broken on their way to their own claims is no more to be seen than the demands we put on our shoulders as burdens. She presses and when she tweaks, she seems to be right.
3 tips for balancing happiness, work and private life
Conversely, this diversity of opportunities that presents us with problems also means that we have to focus our attention. There comes the day you have to decide: healthy or sick? For the colleagues stand up or remain for the body? For life or with whining?
These aspects lead me to make three statements about my generation:
1. We are not, we will.
Any statement about who my generation is and what it is can only explain a certain part. Our unity is called diversity.
2. Do not plan, live!
Anyone looking for the ideal job misses the opportunity to take a good job. One could also speak with Maxim and say:
And happiness is in front of you on the street. And keeps his thumb out, But everything happens so quickly that you only notice it when you look in the rearview mirror. And then it is already too late to stop, then you have to keep going straight, until happiness rushes past you again, because you are constantly looking in the rearview mirror. (c) Maxim - rearview mirror
Self-realization, from a certain point of view, is not just to tackle things. It is also about the future. This requires a direction (no plan!). These must be developed, whereby life with their felt vocation and direction go hand in hand.
3. There is no greater loneliness than the couple!
Anyone who tries to understand us should consider one thing: to be single to realize oneself is a decision that opens up opportunities for a limited period of time. It seems to be more harmless to be a cohabitation that neither fulfills one's own expectations nor fits into one's life and direction.
Life and work may not be separated anymore. This also means agreeing with work and vocation partnerships - and those who can no longer, must follow the examples in the text of Nast and separate.
Live as you want!
For me, now, without a guilty conscience, I am going to the next meeting and all those who do not understand this, I may ask
