The greatest gift someone could give me is the courage to make decisions, especially career choices. It’s easy to say to a person just to do things, but there are things you need to think about before doing anything. It can feel like you’re in a stupor when you keep changing your mind. I know what I want to do, but finding a job is challenging. I wrote about entrepreneurship in the last post, which is where I need the courage for.
No one can give that kind of gift. They can only support you. But that would be the greatest gift someone could give me. The other thing would be more money, but I wouldn’t want to get it for free. That’s where getting a job or becoming an entrepreneur comes in.
🎵I don’t know where I’m going. But I sure know where I’ve been🎵 Here I go again by Whitesnake
It’s uncanny how time has passed again. February already, and I’m in a junction what to do. I wouldn’t say I have a work-life because I don’t. I’m going on Wednesday to update my job-hunting thing. I don’t know what else to call it in English. I’m gonna meet a person to do it. I don’t know what my plans are. Looking for work is looking for a needle in a haystack. Why are they forcing me to apply for jobs where there is none. At least in the field, I’m looking for. I already sent an open application to all the companies I wanted. They didn’t need anyone. At least not me. I didn’t study the things I have to apply for a job I haven’t studied for.
I need to work in a place where they let me be away for a few days from time to time. I’m in school, and then I have concerts to attend. I bought the tickets ages ago and booked a few hotel rooms. I can’t cancel the concert tickets just because the employer doesn’t let me go. It would be easier if I were an entrepreneur because I wouldn’t need anyone’s permission. Being unemployed is restricted. You’re not allowed to do what you want. Well, you are, but then you have no security regarding money. I’m glad I don’t live in the US, or I would probably be living on the street. Our system is more secure. Most people get some kind of benefit, perhaps one of the reasons we don’t have many homeless people. Here in Finland, we take care of people. Most of the time, anyway.
I know where I’ve been and don’t want to return. I look forward. I don’t want to stay in the same junction where I am right now. I need to choose one path and then follow it. My mind is all over the place at the moment. Somehow I’ve always been indecisive because I want to do many things. I also don’t want it to be something that bores me. Life is too short to do things that you don’t like doing. Money hasn’t been my motivation. I only need enough money to pay the bills and maybe travel. In a way, I understand people who don’t want to work, but I can’t understand someone who wants to live with the money they get from benefits. You don’t work for the money. You work because you want to belong somewhere. Besides, having something to do during the day and seeing other people is better than being alone without experiencing anything. The reason I do things is to get life experiences. Hopefully, I would find that in a job.
Blogaunuary:If you had a billion US dollars, how would you spend it?
In my case, it’s in Euros. But money doesn’t make you happy. Having money is good, but having a billion would be a nightmare. Many problems exist worldwide, so I wonder if a billion is enough. It’s hard to imagine what to do with all of that money. Many homeless people would have homes, that’s for sure. The way people treat poor people is appalling. Greed is a terrible thing. Many problems would be solved if people with lots of money would give something back to society. Now they only use the money for their own amusement. Certain people shouldn’t have all that money.
If I had a billion, I would try to get rid of it as soon as possible. I would keep enough so I wouldn’t need to find work and have no money issues. The rest I would give to different charity organisations. One of them would be for cancer and other deadly disease research. The other would be for saving the whales and other sea creatures. There are so many ways to get rid of that billion. But there is no money, so there is no help. It’s all a billion dream, after all.
