To enjoy time at home, the school drops, to support the family business, to put nutritious food on the table, to teach, to do things that really speak to me.

I’m exhausted, I want money but this work is not for me
Keywords: {0}
I’m working as a content writer in a small company for quite a few days. From the day I’ve started work here, I’m not much confident with my writing. As every day I’ve created something new but seems like it’s all fake. I don’t know this feeling, am I too overwhelmed or is this not working for me?

My view on what the future of work means to me leaves me in a weird state of absolutely not knowing what I want to do in the future
Keywords: {0}
This not knowing of what I want to do in the future has led me to make more goals within the jobs and companies which I hold compared to full career aspirations for example, moving from team member to team leader in my retail position. Currently I work at a call centre for a major drinks provider where I am involved in the complaints side customers when they have issues with our poducts, machines and deliveries however im already looking upward to moving into a sales representative position.

I want people to know that luck didn’t get me here
Keywords: travel
I made a conscious choice for my current lifestyle in 2013. Although, most of my life I have had a goal of living life abroad even for a short time. I started to put this goal in motion in 2012 by researching ways to live/work abroad. Teaching English seemed to be the best option for me, and in January 2013 I started classes with the University of Miami of Florida to get my Teaching English as a Foreign Language Certification or TEFL. The course was more intense than I expected and along with working full time, it consumed much of my after-work energy. That TEFL certification was the first step in finding a teaching job abroad. Of all the cities, in all the world I have for most of my life dreamed of living in Paris. So, that is where I started.

I’m still discovering who I am and what I want from life, but the journey has been rewarding and inspiring

It honestly makes all the difference to genuinely enjoy your job. I felt very underutilized at my previous job, and always felt so drained after the work day. Now I feel like I’m reaching my full potential and really getting the opportunity to show what I’m good at––it’s super exhilarating. I have the energy to want to do side projects (hello, new blog post) and explore new hobbies.

I want to find opportunities to work on something which includes everything I realized was important for me

A lot of the narratives that influence us online or in more conventional media are based on these stories of people who always knew what they wanted to do and proved to everyone that they were exceptional at it. Writers who always wanted to be writers, musicians that sold everything to pursue their dream since they couldn’t do anything else or people that created IT companies that turned into millions when they were teenagers. I mean, the pressure is huge! Unconsciously, the following question starts growing inside our brains: “why don’t I know what I want to be?”

Working normal jobs with shifts doesn’t really feel like my jam if going to classes already eats up a lot out of me

if all the work I do is free and I funnel everything in for no gain and I starve because I can’t pay bills or buy food, that would be pretty bad….. (probably an understatement)

Due to my ambitious career goals, I wanted to work and strike the iron while it was hot and then retire by the time my first child entered middle school
Keywords: homeschooling , deschool , homeschooling , homeschooling mom , intentional living , is homeschooling good , why homeschool , why you should homeschool , working homeschooling mom
Initially, I wanted to begin homeschooling when my kids were in middle school. I wanted to spend those three very critical years of their development with them and I’m also a career lady—so this idea worked to my advantage. I couldn’t give up my career—it was not for the income or the accolades, it is a serious part of who I am. I thrive off of the mental stimulation and the professional challenges. You can throw me to the wolves, and I promise, I’ll return leading the pack—and I will enjoy every turn. You couldn’t take that away from me.

Today I want to test out a new type of post. Here, I want to feature someone’s writing that isn’t exactly about wanting per se … but which (I feel) is nonetheless relevant to our collective interest in wants.

But here’s the raw truth: being a professional volunteer comes at a cost. Software subscriptions, stock photo subscriptions, etc. all cost money.
