I’m not a stranger to working jobs I hate, and doing them for a good amount of time with a smile on my face and my employer begging me to stay. And that was before I knew what I know today, which I’ll teach you in this video.
You have to disconnect wages from work. You have to care about your integrity and health. These are two things that are going to change your relationships with work forever.

1. The Point of Work
- The point of work as we know it is not to fulfill a career dream
- It’s not feel like you are being useful in society
- It’s not to find purpose in life
- Work is meant to give you money, money that you need to live, and that’s it
Now does that mean that it doesn’t matter what you do for money
- In some ways it does, you want a job that allows you to keep your integrity.
- A job that allows you to keep and maintain your health in some
- But don’t think that a dream job actually exists, a job that fulfills you in every way, ( that’s not real )
For example:
- Ever since I was 11 years old I wanted to be a YouTuber and I genuinely thought that this was my dream job
- Truth is, I enjoy teaching
- But teaching is going to fulfill me, this is what I do for wages and it happens to make money but their no guarantee that it will last forever or guarantee that I will be able to achieve that again
What really matters is this:
- God
- Family
- Culture
- Community
- Learning something new
Application:
- Ask yourself this question
- If money wasn’t an issue what would you do with your time
- Where would you invest it and why
- You are not allowed to use more money-making activities, beucase again money is not a problem so why would you build a company or anything like that
2. New View on work
- View work as a means to an end
- It is something that its value is not in the activity that you do, but instead in what it allows you to achieve
For example:
- Let's say you are a computer programmer and you are making $300,000 a year
- And I know people that make that much money
- And they absolutely hate their jobs ( you might think about quitting, if you view your wages as an identity for example)
- Saying I don’t want to be a programmer, y true calling is being a dancer
- However, if you view your job as something you do for money then you can set yourself up for success
Application:
- Take the wages from your job
- And use them to plant seeds for your future
- Let's say you hate your job but
You can use it to :
- Payoff debt faster
- Save for emergencies
- Save up and pay off a home or something like that
- It is something to consider that’s my point
3. The old Fashion Way of working
- Now before work became an aspirational goal for most people and also a status symbol
- Work was something people did to provide them with enough money and use the rest of their time to enjoy in leisure
- So this is pretty powerful
First I want to say this:
- Don’t think that work are only activities that give you money
- You can work on your family and community for free and that’s still work
- But here is what I want you to consider, how much money
Here you go:
- It's good enough to make good enough money
- If you have no debt and you have 3-6 months emergency fund
- And all you need to make per month is $2,000 dollars to cover your cost of living
- Then it's okay to work fewer hours, so you can make what you need and use the rest off the time on whatever you want
4. Work is not personal
- Beucase work is something you do for money
- You should get paid the most money possible
- Without sacrificing your integrity and your health
