Who? Well, me. I’m not ashamed because of it. Money motivates me, i constantly count the price of my hours. Of course money is just one of the things that motivates me. But for me it is big deal.
Greed is definitely my sin. I don’t feel bad if i have to destroy people in order to succeed myself. For me it is every man for them selves! I really don’t feel it is even a sin. We all should have that certain kind of hunger in us, hunger that drives us to do better, try more and seek success. When i meet people who settle, who are lukewarm they make me feel like they are waisting their precious time being alive.
Tho, some of them might think i’m doing the same by being workaholic and ”not enjoying my life”. I don’t blame them. My style is kinda hardcore. I’m passionate when it comes to my profession, at least when i enjoy it and when i’m not frustrated. But even when i enjoy it i don’t work for free.
I’m materialistic girl, i try to keep it in reasonable portions because i have a tendency move very often. And by the time I moved like 91876496th time it is really hard to get anyone to help anymore.
Greed is something that is considered as a negative thing. Yes, it can be also that. Taking more than you need is always considered as shady. But don’t we all do that? Some more than others yes, but we all do it. IF there is now someone who thinks that they take only what is needed, who decides what is needed and when it turns into wants? One can survive without eating everyday, yet how many of us is ready to give up eating everyday?
Earth provides enough to satisfy every man’s need, but not every man’s greed.
Mahatma Gandhi
Even now my greed guides me. I hardly got from work and take a few hours of sleep and then heading back. Why? Not really because I have to. Because I want to. First time in ages I actually enjoy my work, and I think it is fun even if the pressure is much more intense than in my previous job. I love the adrenaline rush I get from work. And that I got to concentrate in the cooking part of my profession.
The one thing I love about my new job is that it feeds my OCD. Even my new co-worker noticed that I have a problem when it comes to little plastic containers and labeling things. Tho, he fell in love in my style so shouldn’t be a problem!
