Workaholics - > Work-less-holics

Well hey, this is john_caliber and I'm back for a week before I get back to school and write a few exams. Damn even though its the way of life I do hate it. Well never mind, in this article, I will be talking about the term workaholic and how I feel about it. So, let's dive in....

 

According to Wikipedia it means ( well it's faster than looking through a dictionary) :

A workaholic is a person who works compulsively.

 

Why am I typing an article on the topic?

Because I freakin hate this term and its used every time to negatively imply those people who bust their arses, working 24/7 ,day and night coz they love their work.

 

Some people are totally committed to work but it does not mean that its hard work, well hell no! Because total involvement is necessary to call any work done or being done a hard work. Well, for example, people build huge walls and they break their backs to do so. But when they die, there are miles of walls which are testimonials to their hard work. This term workaholic is used a lot nowadays.  Well everyone of us does something for a long period of time without taking any breaks or stopping in the middle. Well according to me this term feels like a disease. It seems like calling someone alcoholic. I personally disagree the usage of this term. Yes, there is a limit to work on something but if someone loves it and it’s a good thing they're doing then why stop em ? It's their love and passion so let it flow!

 

But hard working without an aim doesn't make you a workaholic. Whatever we do in our life needs an aim. Aim or target is necessary to our success and without it, we get mixed up in a lot of other stuff and we can't get anything done. Then there are those multitaskers. It's the truth that we have to do so much in so little time and people multitask to complete their respective work but here's the think multitasking can bring a lot of mistakes in your works. Most of you won't agree on this but it's damn right, multitasking does cause mistakes in your work.  Even more dangerous are those who multitask aimlessly like freaking !d!**ts. As I have stated it is necessary to have an aim or a target and without it, you will just get mixed up. Whether you’re doing a lot of work at ones or a single work at a time, completion of the work must be your aim and just do not complete it for the sake of completion, put some thought into what you do and try to find out new ideas and styles that can make your work even better and unique.

 

Now let's go from workaholics to work-a-less people. These people waste their life doing nothing and sit there thinking that something will happen to them. Well, that’s absolutely wrong coz it's your work that earns you everything. Without working you will not get anything. If you say otherwise, then I am the living testament to show you all that hard work can earn you everything that you desire. I work my arse off to be the best at what I do and even though I do not achieve anything sometimes, I do achieve a lot more than those people who do not work. Hell, the satisfaction that you receive when what you have done is successful is just really damn good. See guys all those who you see on the internet, movies, television etc have done something to get to where they are right now. You just cannot achieve anything by sitting on your couch thinking that the opportunity would come to you. Hell no!!, you must grab opportunities and make it yours.

 

Some people just throw away these opportunities because they are scared of failing. Well, what you’re doing is a big mistake coz all the opportunity that you receive must be used. If you don't, the feeling of regret would plague you. Let me ask you: do you think doing nothing is better than doing something and failing? For me doing something and failing is better than being a couch potato and being those people who are just scared to take up the opportunities that come and falls in front of them. Another fact is when you look back at it, you will think that “man I could have done that". Well to avoid that seize your moment and never EVER let it slip.

 

Work, earn and live. Never lose a single opportunity for it might plague you with regret. Nothing is brought to you, everything must be earned and yeah follow your love and passion.

 

THE END
