I haven't quite started working yet. I'll be starting medical school this fall, so I'm working towards my purpose. Ask me in a few months how I feel lOl.
I'm in grad school pursuing a masters in social work. Social work is definitely my calling, and I look forward to working in that field. Right now I work part-time in a library. It's okay, and it definitely helps pay the bills.
I'm intrigued by your question. I was at that point this time last year, working as a Coordinator in a Substance Abuse program. It was a very demanding job. I used to say I love what I do I just hate where I'm doing it. I resigned. I am now working on my Doctorate in Formational Counseling, focusing on trauma in women and children. I'm loving my new life. I became a first time grandmother two weeks ago. I'm happy to have the time to spend with my grandson. Money is a little tight but I trust God with my future.
I am extremely methodical about my employment decisions. So I don't know if enjoying work is an option for me. It's more of am I making a salary that I can live on? Am I being paid more for my skills and experience and less for the actual work I put out. I also want to work in an environment where I am treated fairly. The End
Every time you leave a comment, it means that I am not crazy and writing for nothing! It's like talking to yourself...you feel better when you know someone is listening! Right? Come back again!

I love what I do just not where I do it.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great discussion topic... I love what I do, but I also feel like I'm not fulfilling my "life's purpose."
ReplyDeleteWhat about you?
Also, I really like the header for your blog--it's quirky, adorable, and inventive in my opinion :)
