One thing I noticed with Nouveau RICH is a deep feeling of wanting to something that keeps you busy but busy in a way that you like it. My previous job was that, I was always super busy and working on complex things but I loved it because I love what I did. Back then, it didn’t even feel like work, every day was a new day and was fun no matter how hard it was. Felt honestly like a vacation even if that’s crazy to say. Reflecting on that and although that job was half the pay and half the work I have now it was really enjoyable. I loved the team, I loved the work and everything else. Now it’s good as well but I’ve become so effective at doing my work that I’m really that busy and I really miss that feeling. That feeling of finishing the day that may of been hard but is so rewarding that you inherently become happy.
That’s why when I got the new job that I’m starting soon that is not only double my pay, in my current industry and for a startup it was essentially in a way a new path in my life. Combining my love and feelings of feeling whole because of how busy I will be but also have the income that will allow me to travel anywhere I want and work from there. I never understood why a big part of people like working a few hours a day and then doing nothing essentially. I love being busy but busy with what I’m passionate about it. Current job fell like work and everyday felt the same. New one will be where I can finally feel like I did in my old job. Happy and rewarded from the work I do and work that actually impacts the company and helps it succeed. Not just a random employee.
