其实把这个问题反过来看一下,就很清楚了。除了负面的东西之外,工作到底给我们的生活带来了什么positive的东西?如果突然没有了工作,如果没有替代的东西,这些positive的东西都会从我们的生活里消失,are you ready for this? So why do we need to work?
1. To feel productive: nothing feels better than checking off times on a to-do list! It gives you a sense of accomplishment. Working gives you a feeling of productiveness that helps make you feel good at the end of each day.
2. To give your discipline (punctuality), so you can get up and do things at specified time.
3. To have a purpose or focus: work It gives our lives purpose by helping us direct our skills and talents toward a cause. Work can be a distraction – for better or worse.
4. To have responsibility: people want to go to work because they like the feeling of being responsible of their own living. The more you work, the more you are trusted and given more responsibility.
5. To learn: even though school may be done, working should constantly be teaching you something about your passion that you may not have known before. Whether it is from the people you work with or the constant changing of the industries in accordance to technology, people go to work to learn more.
6. To give you a measure of your achievement.
7. To give you a sense of belongs. We are social beings: people need people.
8. To make money and maintain a standard of living
所以有些人说“having nothing to carry is the heaviest burden in the world”。
