The mind set they (Claire,Parker) have
is completely preventable.

Amazing find man. I think about myself graduating from college and the only thing I want is a job with health insurance. I don't care where I have to go or have a lot of hang ups about the work.

I wondered what Mike Rowe learned from Dirty Jobs.

That was a big lesson from Dirty Jobs, and I learned it several hundred times before it stuck. What you do, who you’re with, and how you feel about the world around you, is completely up to you.

That article is amazing! It is so deep and has so much value to offer to our generation. You can certainly run so many parallels, as he does with the woman who wants a man, but her own expectations pretty much set her up for failure.

Tons of us have bought the kool-aid and it's a breath of fresh air to hear someone like Mike Rowe, who keeps it real.

THIS IS GOLDEN !!!!!!

Claire doesn’t really want a man. She wants the “right” man. She wants a soul-mate. Specifically, a soul-mate from her zip code. She assembled this guy in her mind years ago, and now, dammit, she’s tired of waiting!!

I didn’t tell her this, because Claire has the capacity for sudden violence. But it’s true. She complains about being alone, even though her rules have more or less guaranteed she’ll stay that way. She has built a wall between herself and her goal. A wall made of conditions and expectations. Is it possible that you’ve built a similar wall?

Will ponder on this one ...

Stop looking for the “right” career, and start looking for a job. Any job. Forget about what you like. Focus on what’s available

And most of all, stop worrying about your happiness. Happiness does not come from a job. It comes from knowing what you truly value, and behaving in a way that’s consistent with those beliefs.

Quoted for justice. Greatly put.

Third edit :

THANKS A LOT GRINUS, you sure come up with great threads recently ;) :lol:
