🦉 If you have read my previous post about HEALTH, I made the connection between 'health' and 'work.' My story is... I had an opportunity to let go of my frustrations and bitterness to the system of capitalism. It really does help if we put work in a personal scale, with you beautiful ingrained talents/skills, with the people around you and the places around you. 🌙 For Juju, my mantra after the #darknightofthesoul was: "Do what you can, with what you have and do it well." Why work is important? In this 21st century and second millennium, we need to work to pay the bills. Ancient origins of work: The first thing that comes up in Juju’s mind is the story of Adam and Eve being put in the garden to be custodians. They were made to have the responsibility to nurture and care for each other and the natural environment. #biblicalmeaning How has work changed? I’m sure you know very well of industrial revolution, uses of technology aiding humans to work faster and with ease. But, we all know of the term #burnout and this page is all about helping us maintain some sanity and personal ability to recognise and take boundaries. Why? Because you can get sick. Put away your phone and go to your secret place- reflect, write and re-view your goals, wants, personal mission and stick to YOU. Ask yourself: Do I really need to work 30+ hours? Can I work part time and also use my free days to focus on developing a product, practice music etc? How can you make work meaning to you in this #covid landscape? ⚡️Create an inventory of your current costs, needs, wants including your relationships ⚡️Picture your vision of where you want to be - taking note of the #covidsituation ⚡️Take the opportunity to change careers, find a job Note- if work does not give you joy or a state of flow then adapt your mindset.
