An idealist’ tips on how to survive the modern society

Modern society is full of noise and imperfections, making it tough for idealists to find their place and be happy about it. If you are confused and feel lost like I once did, maybe there are some tips that I have learned along the way that can help. Ultimate principle: Center the world around you, not others Coping Strategies for Navigating Work Challenges In modern society, work has taken the majority of our time and energy. We often lose the balance of planning around work vs. life. I once wanted to escape from work, but I found out that having nothing to do is worse! Though idealists, love freedom and place a lot of emphasis on our minds, finding something meaningful to work towards is very healthy for idealists. Moving yourself to the center of your life instead of your work allows you to look at work from a different perspective. Not only does it bring a steady stream of income for you, but it also gives you a place to work with other people on meaningful projects. Remember, work is just a part of your life, not everything. You have other higher purposes to pursue, making work more pleasant. I was once struggling in a corporation, finding no purpose in my work, that was a terrible feeling. Think back, I can do better to cope with that. 1) Work brings income and stability to support the seeking for purpose; it is one important pillar from that perspective. 2) Life is complex and has many aspects. For idealists, admitting that work is not the sole purpose can prevent total disappointment and hatred towards it. 3) You can keep looking for a purpose, but not necessarily hate your current situation, understanding that it is a natural process to find the ideal balance; it takes time. <a href="https://medium.com/@jennyqny/an-idealist-tips-on-how-to-survive-the-modern-society-c8656d92c11a">Website</a>
