Job race

It's a 'bloodbath'; a massive race.
You slack a bit and you lose. There's nothing else you can do past that.
So is the race to finding that job you'd always want.

You sent out like 20 applications a day and if your lucky, you'll have about 5 calls max the next day.
Talent is such a commodity these days; qualifications are a mere paper filler rather than a decisive point.

Everybody looks and just a handful find.

Trapped

Arrghh!!!

Do you ever feel like your trapped? like "here is a F***ed up life" what do I do next?

like what is a 5 year plan or a 10 year plan?!?!
does it ever work out the way you want it to?

do you ever get the perfect job, the perfect place, the perfect guy, the perfect life???

What's this whole new bull crap of some eternal optimists who have a firm belief, that their life work out the way the plan; even if it is 20 years from now.

What about "living in the moment"?,
does it consume 80% of my chances to earn the perfect life?

what is the "perfect life"?

All these assumptions, inhibitions, illusions, delusions, false perceptions, in- built beliefs, they TRAP us!
They TRAP me!!! it's making me feel claustrophobic....

why is it that we dream of life in a particular way but then feel trapped by our own fears, limitations and responsibilities; that we are unable to do what we wish to!
Does this turmoil ever end....is there a person with a 35 year old career who still believes he has lived his dream life wholly and perfectly? ( I wonder what Bill Gates or Richard Branson has to say about this?)
