Profit & Growth: the meaning of working
Many put profit & growth as objectives in their life. Objective of accumulating profit or money even suffer people, making the idea that working is a torture.
Money according to humorist Ambrose Bierce is ‘a blessing that is of no advantage to us excepting when we part with it’. Obviously money is not an objective; a means, not an end. When we could see this, we won’t see accumulating money as something more worthy than the act of giving.
Work is no more dictated by money. Work is also a mean to actualize one’s potency and serving others.
Growth also empty without understanding the purpose of living itself, like growing into adulthood without mission in life.
Then what’s the end? I think it is to develop into wellness in its wholeness. It could means being wealthy, healthy and happy.
