School vs Work: Which is More Tired? An unexpected journey of the mind.
Some people say that going to school is brainstorming, and going to work is exhausting. But what is the truth? Let's follow in the footsteps of the protagonist Xiaoli and experience the transformation from campus to the workplace together, and see which challenge is more breathless.
Xiaoli used to be a top student, and she was like a fish in water on campus, and her grades were always among the best. But behind the good results, there are countless nights of reading at night, and exams that are anxious to stay ahead of the curve. Whenever she looks at her peers frolicking outside the window, there is always a trace of doubt in her heart: Is such a day really more tiring than work?
After graduating, Xiaoli successfully entered a well-known company. She thought that with her knowledge and ability, the work was just a matter of getting her hands dirty. But soon, reality gave her a resounding slap in the face. Complex projects, tricky clients, elusive colleague relationships, ......She found that the tiredness after work was completely different from the tiredness at school.
So, which kind of tiredness is more unbearable? During a psychological consultation, Xiaoli confided in me her confusion. Instead of answering her question directly, I asked, "What do you think is the essence of tiredness?" ”
Xiaoli was silent. She began to reflect on her own experience, and gradually realized that whether it is school or work, the essence of tiredness is the fear of the unknown and the pursuit of self-worth. When she was in school, she was afraid of slipping in grades and losing her lead; After going to work, she worries that she will make mistakes at work and hinder her career development. These fears and pursuits keep her in a tense state and difficult to relax.
I smiled and nodded: "Actually, the real tiredness is not from external pressure, but from inner struggle. It is only when you learn to face your inner fears, accept your imperfections, and let go of your high expectations that you can truly feel relaxed and free. ”
Xiaoli suddenly brightened. She realizes that neither going to school nor going to work is the whole of life. The real life is to learn to find balance in busyness, motivation in stress, and happiness in tiredness. Since then, she has begun to face challenges with a more positive mindset and enjoy every moment of life.
So, tired from going to work or going to school? There may not be a standard answer to this question. But remember, whether you are really tired or not depends on your mindset and choices. When you learn to face all the challenges in life with a peaceful mind, you will find that life can be so beautiful.
