Sometimes Getting Fed Up Is a Blessing in Disguise
Sure, it doesn’t always feel great; the ugly anger, the frustration, feeling sorry for oneself, wondering if this is all life has to offer, or the emotional upset of it all. (Or maybe it was just the beast of passion awakening? Hmm.). I’m saying that once you process that, you can channel it into something powerful — motivation.
I got fed up with the American job market in 2022 & I began working for myself. I’ve been blessed. Sometimes, I am just amazed that it’s happened & it’s happening. A real dream come true.
The cherry on top is that I have more time to write. Plus, it beats the hell out of being drained for an unfair & offensive paycheck, extremely annoying coworkers, horrible bosses, and suffocatingly outdated rules.
I had to get pissed off, bewildered by the low-balling job offers & the ghost jobs (how is that even legal?!), and more than a little anxious by the thought of being broke. Finally, I asked myself, what more do you have to lose??
Looking back, they were making it easy for me.
Sometimes, the universe pushes us to see how we’ll respond. Will we keep going down the same, seemingly safe path? Or, will we conquer our fear of the unknown?
