Some people are unhappy because they doesn't have a work while some people have a work but also feel unhappy towards life. Have you notice these things on life? Are you wondering why even the successful and employed ones still feel unhappy towards their life?

Everyone's dream is to have a stable career and financial stability. In fact, anyone would feel that they're a failure when they end up unemployed later on life. The feeling of seeing your former classmates getting a job is enviable. There's a disappointment for not succeeding a career you want.

Everyone will asks you if you have a career but no one will asks you if you're happy.

This sentence hits like a bullet. Everyone wants to see how far you have been on life but nobody wants to check if you are happy or not.

Some people are living the dreams of others. They are getting the promotions they want, they are getting the spot, they are the star of the workplace. But why is it that some are unhappy towards their life? What are they lacking when they already have what others doesn't have? Some suck in their job, some are getting rejected and some are getting fired. Is this because successful and employed people are uncontented? Some answered no. They are contented in their job. So why do others feel unhappy if they are contented? Here are the reasons I think why some employed people are unhappy towards their life:

•They do not have a happy family

Some have build wealth and properties but failed to create a happy family. This somewhat made someone feel anxious and down towards everything on life. They feel missing and they feel external pressures from the society.

•They are stucked on the same cycle

Some are tired of doing the same routine everyday. They want to go out and try new things which they haven't experience from their lives. If only working is a movie, everybody would probably want to see a new and different scene.

•They are working 24/7 without social life

Some workaholic people doesn't spend time interacting and talking to people, they just like to start and end their day working which can make our mental health deteriorate.

•They found less meaning on their lives

Some people realized that they only have to work for the rest of their lives until they will die and this make them think that life is spent so short. They feel that they are only born to work and their role in this world is nothing but to work.

•They feel imprisoned from the endless responsibilities

Some wishes to be free and live their lives the way they want it. They feel imprisoned without freedom from running away in their responsibilities. They feel they are stucked on the same place. They feel that they are not in control of their lives.

How about you? Are you also one of those successful and employed people who are unhappy towards life? If so, then you are not alone. There are many who seek freedom, meaning, change and so on. Working for the rest of our lives is one of the biggest truth we cannot deny. If our parents and primary school told us about it earlier then our childhood years will be destroyed.

It is a beautiful dream to have a stable and good job knowing we can provide all of our needs. Everyone feels miserable having no job. However, having a stable and good work doesn't guarantee you to be happy. In fact some people leave their job no matter how good paying it is and their reason is they want to seek absolute freedom and meaning. They say our lives doesn't only spin on working, we also have to feel that we are alive, breathing, living.

"Living life without any purpose, without vision and a clear direction, will always make you unhappy."

What were you BORN to do?

Thank you for reading my article sis! That's why I do not envy high paying people because I know some of them are not happy and I would always admire the job who is low income but at least someone enjoys it.

Being in a job you love and enjoy doing is much more important than your salary. It may be difficult to understand this at first, but in the following years we have to suffer or enjoy doing the same job over and over. When you do something you love, you don't suffer.

Exactly correct. Some people tend to underestimate small wage earner without knowing that they are happy earning that in their job. So yes salary doesn't matter at all 😊

This is because the demands of work because of assignments or work in agencies or private employees must follow the rules, what happens if you don't follow the rules, you may be expelled. indeed the impact is rather negative because of the limited time to socialize with other people. may differ from freelance or part-time workers and also have their own business.

Yes that's true. When you don't experience quality time anymore because all your time is spent to the work 24/7. Sometimes it's better to have a business rather than working for someone.

I firmly believe in stages of life. I don't want to work until I graduated because I have to enjoy and focus on studies. Then, I know when I finally get my diploma, that's the time to grind and earn money. Additionally, balance in every aspects of our life is the key.

That's right po. We should take things slowly but surely. It doesn't matter if our progress is slow. What matters is you are happy in life.

Minsan nacocompare ko din sarili ko pero not in a way na negative, but to inspired by them. Hindi din ibig sabihin na maganda ang sahod sa ganito eh doon ka na din kasi for sure di ka din magiging masaya dahil sa dimo naman gusto yung pinasok mo.

Tama. Minsan kasi iniisip natin na kapag malaki yung sahod sobrang saya pero kabaliktaran naman pala. Like sa mga call center agents, malakihan yung sahod pero halos sa kanila depress dahil nasa loob lang ng opisina magdamag.

That's true. Envy will never make the person totally happy but not all the time it's envy, some feel so imprisoned by their jobs that they just want to give up from it.

I heard a lot of issues like this, my friend had her stable life, they can buy what they want but i just found out that she is not happy with the life that she had. Not all stable are happy, so if ever I one day will make a job, I will always reward myself with the things tht would make me happy.

I was just being reminded the time after I confessed to our Parish Priest last Friday. I somewhat relate to the points you have states above sis. I was one of this few people that kept on blaming myself for not having a stable job for almost three years now, after I graduates in college. I even have the moment that I just want to end my life for I am being pressured and what's more tough is that my own mother really gives me a hard time. After hearing all the pieces of advice from him, I made to realized that I should not put the blame to myself and also put myself the pressure to have it right away. I also experienced one time that I work for a job, but I ended up resigning because I don't like working on it, over and over again. I mean, at that time, I just want to take care of myself and enjoy life as it is like the end. But, there's a thought again, that I should not settle in that kind of thinking because I am getting old, so as my parents.

Thanks for sharing your story Ren. Always chose the work that will make you happy and as long as you are working and paying, you will have something to harvest in the future. Do not enter a work that puts you on fire daily, for sure you can still find a lot of other jobs. Through patience and faith you can do it 🙏

I kinda relate since I fortunate to find a stable job at a young age. I feel like I'm stuck and I feel like I'm going nowhere which is really hard because it's needed to be practical. I wish I can be out there exploring what I want also and have safety nets financially, that way I can discover what truly makes me happy 🥺
