Why is it that we continuously want to "work" for someone else?
Sifting through emails, some old some new I come across many posts telling me to click here for the latest job to work for. Better yet, "check out the HOTTEST jobs on the market today" as if to say that what I am currently doing isn't hot enough. In a culture where we are first asked, "what is it that you do?" we tend to label ourselves as the position we hold instead of the person we are outside of that. When you reply you receive a certain energy that states they either approve or they don't. You then find yourself going into a rant of why you are not where you want to be yet and how certain circumstances are holding you back. But are they really?
Placing the blame solely on external factors is like taking away your position in your own life. Handing the steering wheel to someone whose interest only lies in their own gains. How did we become people of such little love for the life around us? Better yet, for our own life!
Scurrying around we leave bits and peaces of ourselves in the jobs that we take on, the tasks that we worry ourselves over and deadlines we slowly kill ourselves for. Stopping very rarely, if at all to wonder if it is worth it, the mundane positions put in place to further take ourselves away from Self and towards slave masters whose own focus is for greed. I am not saying that every position is meaningless for there are ones that are fighting for the balancing of humanity. However, IT IS NOT ENOUGH. Sadly to say, it is not enough.
So stop whatever it is that your doing and think, think about all the aspects in your life that is making you happy and write it down. Now think about the aspects that are making you feel uncomfortable in any way. Evaluate those lists and really put thought into the realness of the words written or said from your lips. Are you living your truth or the truth of someone else?
