Is Your Job Working AGAINST Your Life's Purpose? Ask Yourself These 5 Questions

We all have a purpose—something we were put on this planet to do that no one else can. For some people, their job is their purpose. Key word: Some. According to NY Daily News, 70 percent of people living in the United States HATE their job. But, why? We’re assuming a part of it is because they don’t feel a sense of purpose; their only real incentive for working is to collect a paycheck. 

But, no one is put on this earth to simply pay bills and die! Remember that.

If you hate your job that’s one sign it’s probably working against your purpose. But if you kinda like what you’re doing, you just don’t feel as excited to get up in the morning or as fulfilled as you thought you would, it’s time to ask yourself some questions. 

It’s time to see if your job is actually working against what your true purpose is. If it is, life is short. Do you want to spend another 12 months not doing what you were born to do? Just something to think about.

About Shellie Reneé

Just a woman who digs all things relationships. HEALTHY RELATIONSHIPS, that is. I've been writing (professionally) for close to 20 years, including having two books published. I'm also a marriage life coach and doula. Sometimes I speak to large audiences or do radio interviews, but usually I'm sitting in my favorite chair, surfin' the 'net and penning stuff that I wish I had read in my early 20s.

Listen, I don't have all the answers, not by a LOOOOONG shot. But whatever I can do to spare folks any heartbreak, bitterness or straight-up drama, I'll devote some keystrokes to doing. 

That's it...in a nutshell. For the most part. Kinda. ;)
