I think there comes a point in our lives that our job is the THING.

I came home once very tired from work but very happy because of the positive outcome of what i did at work. I would sometimes go out with friends yet I couldn't seem to enjoy it coz I was not contented with how I was in my job that day or the past weeks. I sometimes feel that maybe I am being too serious and couldn't even relax and forget all about it for once.
I just realized that I may just be at a point where I am too engrossed with my work that I see this as the one that hugely defines my life at the moment. I have chosen not to be in a relationship for two years now and I have come to be so passionate with what I am doing that when my expectations are not met then I get so frustrated somehow. I am competing with myself I could see. But then, I would also laugh alone and even congratulate myself when things are going well and very productive.
Hmmmmmm...or maybe it is time to meet a new person that could closely witness me in my ordinary day's ups and downs.:)

Sometimes what our ideal means to us is important but we forget usually that life goes once and it could go wrong or right. We could have a successful job but we don’t have someone who could compliment for our doings such things could make us miserable but it covers by our satisfaction trough our successful job try to Love someone and be with someone now that you have a career.

It is good to learn that you are actually having a positive outlook to your work. You are an asset of the company you are working with and for. It is okay to really get serious to work but never forget to give yourself also a break so you will not get fed up soon. It is also quite admirable that you are yourself's friend for that will help you to get inspired all the more. Sometimes, no one can give us a great congrats but ourselves alone. So, keep cheering yourself when you do well in your job. Having someone you are talking about? Well, I wish you good in searching for one. Hope that someone will really be giving you a support.

We must love our job. That's for sure, but for some reasons we seem to be so fed up with it that we want to quit. Sometimes I think to myself I am a quitter, because when pressure comes, I want to quit. But for now, I'm sticking to my job. I have to remember why I've chosen this path.
It's a good thing that you are friends with yourself and you give yourself a tap on the back if you did a great job. It's also good that you compete with yourself, you are actually motivating yourself to do more, give more, do better than what you did before.
AS to the new person? Hmmm, just make sure he/she wont get you out of focus. Weigh things up. It's also good to have someone whom you can work with productively and grow interpersonally! God bless!

Yes definitely because there comes a point in our lives that we have reached that state wherein we realized that our job plays an important part of us since it a source of ones income and our means of resources.Yes it is also true that sometimes that we are already hooked to it that we realized that is beyond our set goals and that we failed to plan ahead of time.Precisely if we can just balanced things by our own means and course what a wonderful world to live with right....
