有谁三月考的一起改吗? 3.18 a person’s job has more effects on his or her happiness than this person’s social life does.
Some people may well claim that, since one's career accounts for nearly one-third of the whole life time, surely it has more effects than any other aspects. While this statement may be true to someone who sees their jobs as their life, but for the majority of people, there are many more other contributors to happiness. In view of this, this statement has failed to take them into account.
For those workaholics, their profession and their private life are closely related to each other and cannot be separated. Happiness comes from work as well as from life. Actually, not only happiness, but all the other emotions---sorrow, satisfactory, joy, and sadness---all come from one origin. For instance, a businessman who is quite successful, while he is working, he is also socializing at the same time. He enjoys expanding his network so as to bring more resources to his business, and at the same time, he loves to chat with other people since the conservations with elites in other industries can always bring new ideas and inspirations to him. So, in conclusion, he can obtain sense of self-achievement and happiness from work as well as life. There is no which-overweighs-the-other question.
However, for the more common people, they tend to clearly separate their work and their private life, and for most of the time, the latter draws out more joyful and happy moment. This view can be best confirmed from one of my friend. He is a senior manager at a big accounting company. Years of diligent work has made to quite adjusted to his professional life. Yet does he lie true passion in accounting? Hardly. What he true loves is travelling---anyone who takes a glimpse at his desk will notice that, which are filled with all those pictures and souvenirs he has collected from journeys and trips. He once told me that he works assiduously so as to have enough time and money to do what he really wants to do. Travelling is his true love, and this is where his happiness comes from. So, anyway, the sacrifice is justified.
Finally, what about those people who do not occupy a job? Do they be entirely deprived of the right of happiness? Certainly not. For example, the housewives, who raise the whole family, prepare for the meals, do the laundry, and take care of the kids. Does it necessarily mean that their life are blank and pitiful? Having a look at their faces---which are usually carved with pride and satisfactory---and their high and joyful spirit you will find the answer is absolutely no.
In conclusion, happiness is highly individual sense of feeling. Overridingly contending that one's happiness comes most from one's job is therefore biased and inaccurate ,though it may be true to someone. There are many other aspects that can make our life contended and pleased, such as one's hobby, one's family and one's social life, etc. |
