Are you content / happy with your life?

If your answer is yes an you're in full time employment, explain to the rest of us why please.

I seem to be reaching that point, i'd like some guidance to make sure I don't **** up.

Feel free to fill this thread with gut crunchingly cheesy philosophy.

This thread is only really for serious replies (sorry Dace/Sunday/etc/etc -im pretty sure your not content with your shithouse lifes anyway).

Thanks, Weeks.

Re: Are you content / happy with your life?

Not happy with my job or money, very happy with rest of my life.

I'm not even sure why I dislike my job. I'm well respected at my work, I'm not micromanaged, I have flexible hours, reasonable hours, I get a day off every week during term time, and I am doing a free post-graduate degree as part of it. But aside from the many mess-ups I've made, I find it impossible to get on with any work as it's so boring.

Every day at work I am literally just wasting time until the next weekend, and I don't really think that's a fulfilling existence.

In terms of advice...erm, only do a job which you can realistically remain interested in for at least 6 hours a day 5 days a week.

Re: Are you content / happy with your life?

Human Nature will never let one be content with one's life to a full extent.

Thus, my answer is 'no'. Although, things could easily be worse (or better for that matter.)

Re: Are you content / happy with your life?

Sometimes I'm content sometimes I'm not.
Don't have a job and very content that I don't (although extra money would be kinda nice) I've got enough cash to last til my next student loan comes in and I've got my next two months sorted out.
(I'm on a road trip visiting loads of friends at the moment then I'm off interrailing )
I just got an email from I girl I really like saying I can stay at hers on saturday.
The only thing slightly depressing me is my girlfriend (as in non-existance of) and ex-girlfriend (as in jealousy and not sure whether or not I want to get back together with) situations, which hopefully will be sorted out soon. But I'm having fun anyway so my minds taken off it.

I can also laugh at just about everyone I know trying to get jobs and stuff and most of them failing! hahahahaha.

Re: Are you content / happy with your life?

apart from being single my life is pretty damn good, i have good friends, good family, am very much looking forward to next year at university and get enough intellectual stimulation thankyou very much.

Just so long as i dont get bored with my friends i think ill be fine, but that shouldnt happen as long as i spread out spending time with them adequately.

Re: Are you content / happy with your life?

No, of course im not. But its all about what level you think about it on.

When im at my most shallow, i generally enjoy life. I work with loads of people who like me. Although i work 35 hours, i still have three full days off in a row a week. I spend my free time with my mates, of whom i have plenty, getting absolutely hammered on drink and drugs. I have very liberal parents who dont mind anything i do so long as i give them due respect, and i'm generally happy about how i come off in real life, and online.

Im not exactly a difficult test subject for a shrink though. Im not really content at all, mainly about the fact that i have no ambition or mental capacity, and no real feelings or emotions. Drink, drugs, arrogance, all hiding from things, yadda yadda. I could pick apart tons of things im not happy with about myself and my life, but theres really no point.

So in conclusion, while drink "being an escape" or "hiding from reality" may be seen as a negative thing, i think its outstanding. Im a lot happier aesthetic shallow, drunk and unconscious than i am sober and aware.

I'm only happy in the work place if I'm giving 110%, although obviously a wander around to chat to people is on order sometimes!

Re: Are you content / happy with your life?

Not really happy. Wouldn’t say I’m content.

Am in full time employment too.
Basically the thing that is killing me is the lack of a gf. Not had one for a while now and I'm finding it harder to even meet women. With most of my m8's in (what appear to be) happy long term relationships with girls they get on well with, there is a constant reminder of my single and alone status.
I ended up repeating a module in university which ment that instead of 4 years for my degree course I ended up doing 5. I ended up getting viciously depressed around last summer and the months after this before christmas.
I was unemployed for months and ended up sleeping in bed till like 3pm then staying up all night etc. Got myself out of the rut and started to look for work, got a crap job in Dell for a while and cleared my debts.
Ended up getting offered a permanent contract doing technical support for Sykes and took it. The money is shit. The job I was going for is terrible but I got transferred to a handy account and its not too bad. Just answering email.

This is full time employment and a regular paycheque, still it’s awfuly hollow. I just basically count the days until the weekend. I cant get a proper tech job even though I have experience doing support and a degree in IT & Telecomms.
Again I’m in a rut. I can imagine if I found a job or career I actually liked or some form of a life goal that I could enjoy then money, status etc wouldn’t matter to me. I’m not a do-anything-for-the-team/company kinda guy. I will do my job but I wont kill myself for it like others do.

So…no…not happy. Don’t think many people are. Its also amazing how many ppl here are fked up cause they cant get a gf. Solidarity brothers! *raised fist*

Anyone have any tips on working out what you want in life or how to get out of a rut? They'd be appreciated on these boards I'd say

Re: Are you content / happy with your life?

The best advice I can give on getting out of a rut is to pay off all debts, get rid of most of your possessions and don't accumulate any more (of either). A friend of mine earns less money than me, has less qualifications and does an objectively worse job but is sustained because he can quit his job at any time with no dire consequences.

I'm currently single and prefer it that way, so can't really help you with that. I could have a girlfriend but not particularly eager to have one (unless they were "special"*).

* = as in special school, am I ri....oh forget it. I'm no good at these gimmick things.

Re: Are you content / happy with your life?

Mmm well to be honest I'd settle for a shit load of hot sex with attractive women however thats about as likely as the gf thing heh

God damn we should start a GD Get Your Rocks Off agency. Someplace where the lonely denizons of GD can go to 'get some'. Though with some of the people here, their tastes would be pretty specialised. We'd need to ship quite a few off to various countries where
1) People would be willing to do the things they are into
2) It is actually leagal to do they things they are into
3) Its dark enough so that people wont be repulsed by the slavenous net geek persona when they ask people to do the things they are into.

Re: Are you content / happy with your life?

legality and repulsion have never stopped me before.

that whole 'willing' thing is a bit awkward though.

My advice would be to get a job with no responsibility whatsoever, you will feel unable to express yourself, underpaid and bored, but you won't care and trust me there are no jobs which allow you to express yourself.
rock star? bleh, not exactly realistic though

i did really really enjoy my time a a volunteer at the drug misuse project in my gap year. it wasnt exactly a 'job' as it mostly involved helping other people and i had to do hardly any paperwork. But the majoraty of what a lot of people did was just talking and working through problems with the clients, and when i was doing that it felt good as well.

also it was the only time when i regularly felt id acheived something good at the end of the day in my life, which is definitely a nice feeling.

whether i can get a well paid job in that kind of field or not is another question though :/

In my last job I had to travel excessivly around the country. This more leisurely pace lets me enjoy my work so much more. I have a wonderful gf who i can spend quality time with and acually have a pretty fun life.

I use to think career was everything, but now its not he pinacle of my life, but if i can still do my workload and enjoy it with AD breaks and looking at the footie pages and some porn and talk and msn and irc and still get everything i need to get done done I think its ok

I guess priorities and attitudes to work changes as your life changes

I think burn out cangd th way I operae if I am honest. Now I find as long as I do what i do and more and I am not pushing the limits I am much happir.

I used to really push myself when I was single and I guess I have been made redundant twice - I think that has a heavy impact on how you perceive and work in your environment.

Re: Are you content / happy with your life?

Lovelife
Not happy. Having big arguments with my ex. Still have that stupid phobia of talking to girls that I don't know

Money
Broke as hell, but I'm content. I'm not exactly going to die or anything.

Future
Content. Got the degree I wanted (lol) so have got into my PGCE course at Exeter (teacher training). So my future has a bit of certainty in it for the next year.

Physical
Guess I'm happy. Could do with losing a bit of weight, but nothing dramatic.


Can't think of any other subcategories to analyse :P

Re: Are you content / happy with your life?

I don't think I'd ever want to be 'content' in the way the word normally seems to be used, since it often implies an end to progress - you are 'content' if you want things to stay as they are indefinitely, and you have lost your desire for improvement. I am happy however, although I don't work full-time (although I'm trying to find a summer job). In a way, I think that happyness and contentedness are mutually exclusive to some degree, since I equate happyness with the state of mind derived from constantly striving to move fowards and accomplish goals, whereas I associate contentedness with stagnation.

I'm slightly feeling s**t because I might not get to meet the girl of my dreams for some time. She's got one of those dumb-ass parents who control a lot in her life...

Re: Are you content / happy with your life?

A bit depressing but an ace thread.
Anyway im happy now.
everything just depends on your perspective.
and you need to do alot to find a perspective, personality and a mood that enables you not to be f'ed by life.

for me it was f'ing around in france for 4 months, learning french and trying to sort my brain out.
nothing is perfect, but i feel everything can be made good, by me.

Re: Are you content / happy with your life?

Update. I'm ****ed.

Got two student accounts. £1600 overdraft in both of them.

Thanks to Cheque King (you write a cheque up to your cheque guarantee amount, they give you cash for it) and my knack of not handling money well (come on! you write a bit of paper, and get £100 given to you!) I've managed to get to -£2000 on each.

Barclays are okish, they have phoned me up and asked me how much I can pay in, and when I can do it by. So that's ok, as I will have money incoming over summer hopefuly.

Natwest though, have sent me my first letter today (even though they say I've supposedly received previous correspondence - my arse) saying I need to snip up my card, and send it to them along wiht my cheque book.

And once I've done that, I need to pay off the excess until I get back to my overdraft.

And if I don't, then "Recovery Agents" will come round and get it, and I'll incur an extra £125 charge.

Tried phoning them, but they aren't in until Monday.

So yeah. I'm ****ed. Royally.

And the rest of my life doesn't matter while I have this hanging over my head. So I'm not at all happy with my life. I hate money.

It's not legal to just "send the boys round", fortunately.

Get advice from the CAB, but you'll have more time than they're telling you anyway.

I'd agree, if you were 100% content with everything in your life. But most people don't seem the mean that. Being content just seems to be that one of your needs/desires has been met to the point where happiness is reached, albeit temporarily. So if you're hungry and you have a nice big meal you'll have a period where all your other desires/worries seem distant and everything is cool. Then this slowly fades and another desire (e.g. for sleep, or to read a book, or whatever) takes over, etc, etc.

When most people say they are "content" with their lives it means that happiness from one aspect of their lives has obscured everything else. If two supermodels came to my door and asked me for a weekend long threesome I'd probably say I was content/happy even though I'd still have worries about work and stuff. This seems to be a strong motivator with some instances of drug use.

Re: Are you content / happy with your life?

Why would anyone ever be entirely happy with their life?
Why would a person not want to constantly be trying to do something new, or improve on something theyre already involved in. Why would someone want to settle for "what is" instead of "What could be".

Using that definition then I would agree, however it varies from the dictionary definition of the word, ie:

con·tent Audio pronunciation of "content" ( P ) Pronunciation Key (kn-tnt)
adj.

1. Desiring no more than what one has; satisfied.
2. Ready to accept or acquiesce; willing: She was content to step down after four years as chief executive.

which is the way the word has always seemed to have been used in my personal experience.

I think the major myth to be dispelled here is that happiness requires everything in one's life to be 'perfect' , which seems to portray happyness as being some kind of blissful state which can only reached under utopian conditions quite alien to the lives of most people -- as some sort of nirvana-esque elysium. I would claim the opposite - happyness is not something which is to be sought in itself, rather it is the mental state which you should have while you are in the process of seeking the other values you desire. Too often I hear people rationalize about the "one thing in their life that prevents them from being happy" (be it the lack of a girlfriend, money or a nice car), which completely misses the point that they should be deriving their happyness partly from the quest to gain these things, rather than purely from the attainment itself (or to put it in more cliche words, the climbing of the hill is often more enjoyable than the view from the top, and even the beauty of the view should not prevent you from moving on to the next mountain)

Quote:
Our attitude to the "internal enemy" is no different: here too we have spiritualized hostility; here too we have come to appreciate its value. The price of fruitfulness is to be rich in internal opposition; one remains young only as long as the soul does not stretch itself and desire peace. Nothing has become more alien to us than that desideratum of former times, "peace of soul," the Christian desideratum; there is nothing we envy less than the moralistic cow and the fat happiness of the good conscience. One has renounced the great life when one renounces war.

In many cases, to be sure, "peace of soul" is merely a misunderstanding--something else, which lacks only a more honest name. Without further ado or prejudice, a few examples. "Peace of soul" can be, for one, the gentle radiation of a rich animality into the moral (or religious) sphere. Or the beginning of weariness, the first shadow of evening, of any kind of evening. Or a sign that the air is humid, that south winds are approaching... Or the state which follows a thorough satisfaction of our dominant passion, the well-being of a rare repletion.
