I believe God has amazing plans for my life. He does for everyone.
That being said, I’m working at a job that I don’t particularly love. It’s easy to ponder on all the negatives about it and how I cannot wait to do something I can be passionate about.
No one has said I have to love my job…but what about liking it for what it is?
I’ve been reading Jon Acuff’s book, Quitter, and it has really opened my eyes to seeing my current job in a new light. He says that we don’t have to love our jobs but what’s stopping us from liking it? We are there for a reason. What positives can we get from it?
Here’s a list of 5 reasons I appreciate my job,
- It allows me to have a beautiful home with the luxuries of heating and air conditioning.
- I have healthy food in my house and the ability to occasionally eat at nice restaurants.
- It allows me to play music without worrying if I’ll get paid or not for the gig.
- When problems arise (health issues, car maintenance, house upkeep) I have the ability to address them.
- It continues to teach me to be productive, innovative, skillful, wise with my time, a better leader, and a better follower.
