What Is Your Job Taking Away From You?

I believe that too much respect is given to the almighty job. People treat having a job like having a huge lump of solid gold. But the truth is that I don’t believe having a job is really that great. Sure it gives you money and we all need that. But what else is it giving to you? Or perhaps a more important question would be how much is it taking away from you?

You say, “taking away from me… my job never took anything away from me”.

Oh but you would be wrong. Jobs are thieves and they take away much more than they actually give. Now I’m not saying that you should call your boss right now and tell him that you quit. However, I do think you should start thinking about a better alternative to a job. Something that will give you more money than your job right now and will never take away anything from you. Something called a home based business.

In case you’re still wondering what your job has taken from you let me give you a few examples.

Have you ever…

Missed your child’s school play?
Come home to a cold dinner because you had to work late?
Not been able to make it to family Christmas because of work?
Missed your son’s first little league game?
Not been able to pay for your daughters college?
Not taken a vacation with your spouse for over a year?
Driven a car that barely works because you can’t afford a new one?

If you answered yes to any of these your job HAS stolen something from you. Also, keep in mind that these are just a few examples. This list could literally go on and on and on….

I’m sure that if you really started thinking you could think of a whole lot more!

Why do we give jobs so much credit? And more importantly why do we let me rule our lives? What has your job stolen from you this year?
