This is a problem..

In what ways does hard work make you feel fulfilled?

My problem is, this is the only thing that makes me feel fulfilled and that’s wrong. Not to mention, I’ve created a glass ceiling, wherein I never think what I do is hard enough.

I’m actually happy this prompt popped up today because I didn’t know exactly what I was going to blog about due to this very problem lol. I probably keep working harder than I should, always, and thus have overcooked my brain of new ideas. Overcooked is a great game by the way.

I’m working hard ironically on not working too hard, which is counterproductive actually lel. I guess, what I’m trying to say is: stop working hard. Let it flow. Work until your body tells you it’s had enough. Until your self-awareness tells you it’s had enough – with the latter being key.

Working hard should not and is not the only way to feel fulfilled, despite Corporate America selling us this since day one. Fulfillment comes in many flavors.

Find yours, Skittles. Taste the rainbow.
