Few
of us realize the true
dangers of being in the
wrong career. Oftentimes,
we rationalize our decisions with
thoughts like, “I need
this job to pay the bills,” or “This would only be atemporary thing until I
could find my true passion”. Yet is it really just a “temporary
thing”? How
many years had been wasted
all because we always tried to put off for tomorrow the things we
really wanted
to do today? How
many “temporary”
preoccupations have become a lifetime of toil because we soon forgot
the inner
voice inside of us that yearns to feel how it is to be truly joyful and
alive?
I’m not saying I haven’t done temporary jobs to survive, in fact, I have spent so many years doing so, and that is why I can warn you of the dangers of trying to dwell there for too long. What I’m saying is you should be aware of the dangers of being in the wrong job so it would not deter you from walking in the right path towards your destiny. Awareness is the key.
The 5 Real Dangers Of Being In The Wrong Career:
1. 1.
Being stuck forever
If there is one thing that’s very
close to hell itself, it’s being stuck somewhere, especially when you
don’t
like the place you’ve been imprisoned in!
Why get stuck
forever?
Consider this one word – inertia. That tendency of a moving body to remain in motion,
and that tendency of a body at rest to remain at rest.
While at first, you only thought
of
slowing down towards your desired path, you fail to realize how you are
also
slowly being robbed of your momentum to reach your goals.
Each day, when you decide to stay where you
are, your inertia at rest becomes stronger. It gets harder and harder to move
until one day, you’ve lost all desire
to make that change in your life. You’re
stuck forever!
“Whatever
you can do or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power and
magic in
it.”
2. 2. Wasting very
precious time
Assuming you don’t get stuck forever,
and that somewhere along those years, you’re able to break away from
that wrong
job that’s been your comfort zone, still you would have wasted
very precious
time along the way: time you could have spent doing what you love
doing, time
you could have spent enhancing your skills and your God-given gifts,
and time
you could have shared your passion with the world who needs it badly.
If there is one commodity in this life
that’s so valuable, it would be TIME. You
can’t turn back time. No
matter how much money you possess, you can’t buy an extra hour of your
life. In
fact, we have no ability to predict how
much time we’ve got left! Is anybody
certain he’s going to wake up to another day? Is anybody certain he’s going to pursue his dreams
tomorrow? Dreams he
decided not to pursue today?
We don’t know how long we’d be able to
live anyways, so if
today is all you’ve got, how would you spend it? Would you RISK
it that you have not been able
to do the most important mission you were supposed to do? What legacy
then are you going to leave
behind?
Can
any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?
–
Matthew 6:27, NIV
3. 3.
Limited income
We often think that by doing other
“income-generating” jobs in the meantime, we’d be able to earn enough
money to
someday afford us the “luxury” of being able to do our passion. But what we don’t realize
is that while we
keep on getting stuck with jobs we don’t like, we also limitour income
potential. Why so? Because it is only by
unleashing our full
potentials (doing the jobs we LIKE) are we able to unleash unlimited
returns
from the world which benefits from the best of our true gifts!
“What we really want to do is what we are really meant to do. When we do what we are meant to do, money comes to us, doors open for us, we feel useful, and the work we do feels like play to us.”
-Julia
Cameron
4. 4.
Forgetting your gifts
As long as we neglect our gifts, we
run the danger of forgetting them altogether sooner or later. Man
is a creature of habit. And what habits are
formed as long as we
continue in careers we don’t like?
Let me give you an example. John has a passion for painting. His early school teachers noticed it in him
even as a child. But
his parents won’t
approve of it. They
wanted him to get a
decent office job that earns him a stable income to raise a family. That’s what he did. At first, he thought he
would just please his
parents, and then later, still be able to practice his passion. But as the years went on,
he found it more
and more difficult to change paths. He
got used to his daily routine of going to the office, looking forward
to going
home, and then entertaining himself by watching some tv when he got
home. Everyday, he
would drag himself to the
office, do the minimum required of his job, and be content with the
salary he
got. At first he
would remember how good
he was at painting, but later on he starts to doubt himself. A few years more and his
dreams would be
nothing but distant illusions he couldn’t achieve anymore. Well, everybody else told
him so, especially
the people he worked with everyday.
5. 5.
Losing your soul
For
what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose
his own
soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul? – Mark
8:36-37, KJV
This is the greatest
danger of being
in the wrong job. This
was also the
reason why I had to finally let go of the job I had which didn’t
resonate with
my true passion.
I
noticed that my soul was slowly dying. I didn’t like the person I was becoming, and
I was getting worse every day. Even
the
people close to me are being affected. I
easily got angry, because I was so frustrated with myself. I lost my patience quickly
because I wasn’t
satisfied with what I have. The
material
things I had were no longer enough to satisfy me, and I have so
endangered my
soul to get addicted to these things in increasing doses just so to
find some
fulfilment. In the
end though, I knew I
couldn’t find true meaning in all these things.
When we settle for a job we don’t
like, we are rarely aware of how it could eventually change us within. We
didn’t know that by trying to escape from our true passion, we are also
escaping from who we really are. In effect, we are actually starting to live a LIE. And when we live a lie,
all our other values start to crumble one by one. The first one is truth,
the second is
courage, the third is hope, and then joy and love. In the end, what will you have left with you?
And if you cannot work with love but only with distaste,
it
is better that you should leave your work and sit at the gate of the
temple and
take alms of those who work with joy.
For if you bake bread with indifference,
you
bake a bitter bread that feeds but half man's hunger.
And if you grudge the crushing of the grapes,
your
grudge distils a poison in the wine.
And if you sing though as angels, and love not the singing, you muffle
man's
ears to the voices of the day and the voices of the night.
–
Kahlil Gibran

Why spiritual? Because man is not only made up of his physical body, but of his spiritual body that needs to pursue its true calling. If man were made up of his flesh alone, he would have been satisfied with JUST ANY JOB that will give him BREAD TO EAT. He wouldn't be reading this topic about pursuing his dream job.
Man does not live by bread alone.

You don't need to live an empty meaningless life.
You don't have to leave your heart everytime you go to work.
You don't have to sell your soul for the little money that leaves you unsatisfied in the end.
You are meant for something beautiful and meaningful.
You are meant to be a blessing to other people.
You are meant to be UNIQUE and to express Your Uniqueness in Your WORK.
“What we really want to do is what we are really meant to do. When we do what we are meant to do, money comes to us, doors open for us, we feel useful, and the work we do feels like play to us.”-Julia Cameron
“Passion is not only a fire
That burns within the heart,
It is a flame that consumes
Both heart and mind,
Both spirit and soul
Such that one is able to do
What one has never done before!”

“And
what is it to work with love?
It is to weave the cloth with
threads drawn from your heart,
even as if your beloved were to
wear that cloth.
It is to build a house with affection,
even as
if your beloved were to dwell in that house.
...It is to sow seeds
with tenderness and reap the harvest with joy,
even as if your
beloved were to eat the fruit.”
-Kahlil Gibran
