"Have you thought of sitting on the million dollar table?"
My friend, Lion, asked me this today. My reply is "Nope. I just want to earn enough, million dollar is a bonus if i ever get."
Lion said he is very stress recently due to 3 reasons:
He just started his new job, got alot of things to learn, while at the same time, his part time study is keeping him busy with projects. More to this, his girlfriend quarrels with him more often recently. He wanted to break with his girlfriend so that he could focus on his career and study first, then maybe when its stable then find her back.
1) He just started his new job,
2) His part time study is getting busy,
3) Quarrel with girlfriend.
My advice to him:
Re-organise your schedule. Plan it like Mon-Fri focus on work and study. Sat and Sun rest and spend time with girlfriend. Work hard, play hard. No happy man works 24/7.
Explain to your girlfriend that you need time for work and study from mon-fri. That way she will not bother you and think you are neglecting her. Sat, Sun don't think about work, enjoy the day with her without stress and there will be less anger. Stress makes a person quick temper.
With proper time management, work, study and family can be juggled well. Sacrifice none is the right way to go.
Lion says after hanging out with me for some time, some things he learnt to take it easy. |
