WHY WORK?

Why do your work? Because you (believe you) have to or because you like doing so? Is your motivation for going to work and staying in your job because (you believe) you have to in order to be a respectable member of society/part of your family? Do you work in order to be able to pay your mortgage/rent/shopping/car/holiday? Or rather because you love the challenge for personal growth it is offering you and because you enjoy the interaction with people/matter/digits/words/ideas/animals etc. it involves?
If the first to answers apply to your situation your motivation for working is fear. fear of being worthless, fear of being unloved, fear of losing your existence, fear of spoiling your future or of having no future or fear to the kind of job, which you would really like to do. However, although your going to work regularly might appease your fear(s) for the time being the moment you are out of your job either by fate or due to your age/health, it will catch up with you. Therefore it is advisable to try creating changes in your attitude/thinking now. Or, if your listlessness towards you work originates in your desire to actually do something else instead, to set about creating changes your exterior situation now.
On the other hand, if the third answer rings true to you your reason for working is love and joy of living. And it is only this kind of motivation for working which is bringing you love, fulfils your existence and secures you a happy future. Because only that which you are doing for the sake of doing it can bring you
 happiness and enables you to find a kind of love and security you can rely upon.

ETERNAL

Liberating your-self from the idea that you are limited to your body, feelings and Mind only, time ceases to matter in the old way and makes way for the realization of your actual immortality.

CHANGE

The most accurate words to choose in order to circumscribe LIFE are: eternal fluctuating change and movement.  These are the true nature of all life, holding against it, negating or ignoring it, causes unnatural hindrances, blockages and results in separation from the flow of life force which in turn causes suffering on some level of our existance. By willingly surrendering yourself to the flow of life and positively accepting it, you gain the position of active participant and simultaneaously receive the power to decide its course to a certain degree.  However, this act of surrender requires Faith and Trust in God and also the true believe that all life serves a higher purpose, even if we may not be able to see the big picture ouselves. The big picture being God's Creation every single part of it must be perfect because God Himself is perfect. Therefore, everything has a hidden meaning and no part of it is superfluous or wrong.
