STOP wasting your life (2020)

Do you know what day of the week you are most likely to die from a heart attack? Take a guess. I'll give you a second It's Monday care to guess what time it is between 8:00 and 9:00 a.m Do you know what else happens Monday at 8:00? That is the same day and time people get ready to go into jobs They hate Coincidence ? Don't think so Take a look at this chart This is the lifespan of the average person On average we live about 80 years if we're lucky We start working at about 18 and we work work work and retire at about 67 Now, what does this tell you? That for better or for worse the majority of your life Will be spent on Work! Do not spend that time unhappy Like my friend J CJ would always say when I finished school Then I'll be happy Well J finished school, but he wasn't happy So then J said when I get a job then I'll be happy J got a job, but he still wasn't happy so J said when I get married settle down and have kids then I'll be happy Well, he got married settled down had two kids but still Wasn't happy so then J said okay when the kids leave home and I'll retire then I'll be happy Well, the kids left home and he retired, but he still wasn't happy So Jay started going to church and I XJ why he was going to church so much and he said Because when I die, then I'll be happy Jay's story, however, sad is not unique I could have replaced Jay with Johnny or Bonnie. In fact, Jay's initials stand for just about everybody Many of us are like Jay But it is not our fault We have been tricked to stay stuck in jobs that are literally making us sick and to be and then people You know about the and then people right it is people who constantly say and then I'll be happy Ladies and gentlemen, we must go from living as and Vince To becoming right now. We have to be happy right now How we must either find a job we love Or bring more love into our jobs. It is time to step out of the rat race Because the funny thing is even if you win make a lot of money hold up the trophy that everybody helps You're still a furrier oaky with a pointy nose and long tail? Wake up, stop playing with your life. This ain't a video game. This ain't mario kart This ain't fortnight. There is no try again. But no option to redo this level when the game's over game's over But there is one cheat code to the human console and that is to take control and to stop buying into the lie Society is told like how overworking is cool and being stressed out as a status symbol Oh and hey almost forgotten the biggest lie people work-life balance Now on the surface you may not see how crazy that sounds but think about it work-life balance Shouldn't it be the other way around? Shouldn't life come before work because when your life is better your work is better But don't take my opinion Harvard professor shawn Achor recently discovered something fantastic Which he calls the happiness advantage? His studies prove that 75% of job success can be predicted by not. How smart you are Not how talented you are But how happy you are? His research is decisive He says when you're happy your intelligence Rises creativity Rises your productivity Rises and you know, what else is funny You also make more money But here's the real kicker. You live longer - I Know it sounds too. Good to be true But yes optimists actually live longer than pessimists so you could stretch this graph a few extra years if this time here is Filled with more joy and Cheer. Let me be clear do not take this message lightly It is your duty to be happy for your own sake and I don't care if you're here at the end It is never too late to trade in your deadly hood for a livelihood and refuse to suffer during the weekdays ironic they call it that cuz you're literally in a week days where you're constantly waiting for the week and see I believe so many people die of heart attacks because they are involved in work that their hearts are just not in I Believe people have low vital signs because they are involved in work that is not vital to them My friends happiness is a choice But anyone who says it's easy his line, it ain't easy But you have to try the first step is to look inside and remember the quote that the Buddha wrote 2,000 years ago, which I believe today for most people still applies The problem is you think You have time Stop wasting your life You
