working hard

so yeah I have been a bit of a workaholic lately.  Getting things done for work. I took this last weekend off. That was rejuvenating experience.  I know that these things are something that are so generic that You could find a million post about this.

I worked hard and i took a vacation to relax.

Lets examine the first part of that sentence.  Working hard – what does that mean? some people would argue that one should work smart not hard. To some people doing Heavy labor is hard work and sitting in the office all day is a piece of cake. I know i speak for myself when i say what I do for a living is stressful and hard.  For now the compensation is better than anything else I would likely be doing.

The second part of the sentence is one that could be looked upon with many different perspectives as well in the movie Office Space the main character talked about his dream of doing “nothing.” That is what he would rather do than work.  so I gues he would be happy to take time off and “bum it” at home.  I on the other hand would rather spend that time on the beach or something that is related to the outdoors.

To conclude this blog I ask you why do you go to work every morning?  What is it that motivates you to do the things you do.  That is really what should be the deciding factor in your decision to dedicate your life to a single proffesion.
