Anonymous Coward User ID: 24210762 United States 12/04/2012 11:07 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | For some of you, it is your anger that is taking the physical and mental toll on you. Quoting: Mickeyblue 9806228 Sometimes it is not what you are doing to make a living but your attitude about it that is making you unhappy. While you are one of the lucky ones earning a living you could use other time out of the day to prepare for what you would like to do. Sometimes absent in this is a clear definition of what that would be. Whatever you believe your superior skills are, use them to delve into how to make them marketable and begin to assoicate with people who share them to your advantage. Quit the complaints and take a step in one or more directions doing what it is that , again, you feel you are so smart about or superior in your skills. How can anyone live in the world and not be angry at the moment? Matter of fact, if you aren't angry, you are either dumb or a coward. |
Mickeyblue User ID: 9806228 United States 12/04/2012 11:11 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Get off the soap box about anger. Unresolved anger, failing to deal with it and do what you can to change the circumstances is exactly to what I was referring. Trying to beat your head against the wall changing other people or any other global thing beyond your ability is futile and self destructing. The world since day one has presented challenges to every living organism to survive, so deal with it. No, darlin' I am way away from being dumb or a coward. |
Conspiracy Theorist User ID: 8962305 United States 12/04/2012 11:55 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I haven't worked in years... Just dont do it. Life goes on believe it or not.. This notion that if you dont have a job your life is some how over is complete bullshit. When you dont work, thats when your life has truly started. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 24210762 This is why so many retirees look at the world a lot differently than when they were working. You see the world in a different light. ... and at this point the dollar is dead, wages are so low its hardly worth it, and there is communities off the grid popping up from east to west. How do you eat? |

Quoting: The Light Under the Door That's what I've done. I set the hours, I set how much work I'll accept and what it is. It's still a pain in the arse to get started in the morning and most of my work still looks like drudgery, but meh...you can't change the fact entirely that play is more fun. Thats why you are a dopey little nut job writing bullshit on this site! |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 28893644 United States 12/04/2012 12:07 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It is destroying me mentally and physically, I work night shift and I can't see anyone, I feel like a complete drone and a lot of nights I leave work angry, frustrated, and worn out. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1779676 I am so tired of doing this, I did it all though school, being made fun of and picked on for being smarter than others and not doing things the same as everyone else. Do any smart individuals here have any ideas on making a living (does NOT have to be a lot) through my own means? I am knowledgeable on the computer, but I just need some ideas on something that I can do to generate income of some sort, maybe even slowly build to something better or larger later. Thank you :D May God bless you and have a wonderful day. If a person is not "lazy", there are lots of options. You can start your own business. you can do a brick and mortar type or an online one or a flea/farmers market type of one. You can move to the country, and make a living farming or odd jobs to avoid the city grind of just trying to survive. Go to the oil fields and get a job there. There are always options, but are you willing to take the challenge and go for it? That is the real question. |

The world has always given people a reason to be angry. Those that can find a way to be truly grateful and still find contentment despite the ups & downs of whatever is going on around them are the ones that truly understand their inner self and spirit. people that need a reason to be happy are the one's missing out. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1550123 United States 12/05/2012 11:02 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I would love to know too. I worked hard for 20 years and have nothing to show for it. Now I am unemployed and my body is wore slap the fuck out. I can't run 30 ft without having to lie down. My back hurts all the time, my knees hurt, I have no stamina either. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 21000351 I have tons of skills, but no one believes me nor are they willing to give me a chance to show them. I need a job that uses my brain and not my body. But finding one is proving impossible. Starting to feel like I ruined my life by working as a landscaper for 20 years. I could go back to landscaping, but am not physically fit for the job. I have no ideas how I am going to pay my bills or survive. I am so screwed. You hurt because of being stressed out and negative. First get yourself feeling better because you won't be able to do anything feeling lousy. You are probably very acid so take 1/2 teaspoon baking soda in water morning and evening. This will help get you alkaline and help with aches and pains. Get some epsom salts and soak in tub a few times a week as well. And eat better. You don't have to eat more. People over eat. But eat better quality foods. Fruits, vegetables, beans, rice and some meat. It doesn't have to be expensive to eat better. And get outside and start walking. That will help you physically, mentally and emotionally. Then google up the law of attraction and find out how you think and how you feel attracts things to you or repels them from you. Your thoughts/feelings are very powerful. You must change the negativity into positivity and start visualizing what you want and feeling good about things. Adopt the attitude of gratitude and find something every day to be grateful for. There is always something. And everyone needs to bitch and moan but get yourself out of it as soon as you can. A good affirmation to say throughout the day is 'I am better and better every day in every way." Things will start changing for you. You can't control how things will come to you but just watch for them and have faith. Now get to work on bettering yourself physically, mentally and emotionally. And don't forget your spiritual needs as well. I believe that is most important. |
