3. Choosing a career that you absolutely dislike
‘I’m only in this job for the money…’ This is the most unhealthy attitude to your career development. On the plus side, it’s the quickest and surest way to discover for yourself that money doesn’t buy happiness. Doing something that you don’t enjoy even in the smallest bit is a form of self-inflicted torture. It’s true that we all have bills to pay but there are also a lot of jobs out there and finding one that you enjoy at least to a degree is not a mission impossible. Alternatively, you could try finding something beyond money in your current job, such as acquiring new skills, albeit unaware of it. It’s very important to find a harmonious balance between work and play.
