Why work will never be satisfying!


My generation is the generation of ever changing stuff and small attention spans.
New Netflix series every day , new restaurant every month, new songs, new cool techie gadgets, new applications, new phones, travelling to new places every 2 months. This is the generation of wandering minds that want to experience new things every day!

Now, how can you expect us to work - at same times, same place, with same people, and same work.

The ideas I get online - have a positive mindset, build your office nest, drink lots of water, do what you love and blah..
But even with my positive mindset, I just get bored sitting at the same desk for 40 hours a week.
Even with my office nest, I no longer feel like to talk about the same problems - of work and jams.
And what water can do, when even coffee fails!
And my work aligns to my passions, but then I still don’t want to do it every other day.

Bottom line - Anything that is same and follows a strict schedule will become monotonous for my generation.
Rule - Get rid of your schedules.

Going further, I am going to start few experiments on myself - change location (open spaces, café etc), change timings (sometimes morning, sometimes evenings), change how you do work (write instead of excel, ppt) . The idea is not to shun work but to make it different every day for my ever wandering mind!

Let's see if that helps!

  1. Don't you think that after making changes to your life that currently could eventually lead you to want to cling on to something that is stable/monotonous��
