More and more often people declare their unwillingness to work. Some categorically state: "I do not want to work at all," they say about their dissatisfaction with the kind of activity, lack of prospects, moral and material satisfaction. Often people say that they do not want to work in principle, regardless of where and by whom, but want to travel and have fun. However, more and more people say: "I do not want to work for my uncle," that is, there is an awareness that work can be fun, but if it's a job for oneself.
Why is this happening? Why do people become disillusioned with their work? There can be different reasons for this. Many simply get tired of routine: transportation, work, transportation, sleep and short life spans between. At some point people begin to feel that they live for the sake of working, as if work is the meaning of all life. Undoubtedly, there are professions in which work predominates, but as a rule, representatives of such professions choose this voluntarily. In our country there has long been a stereotype: if you did not go to college just after school - you're a loser, did not find a job after the institute - also a loser, do not work - a slacker. Therefore, many and many school leavers, having finished school, aspired to act at least somewhere, not really figuring out what they want and what they are interested in. And consequently, do not be surprised that crowds of people are marching through the streets, saying: "I do not want to work." Fortunately, in recent years this pernicious tradition has receded, and people are more consciously approaching the choice of professions, there is a hope that the next generation of specialists will be more positive.
Another very common reason is the lack of motivation. Actually, why should I work? People do not understand why they do it, whether for the sake of money, or just not to stay at home, but definitely not out of love for art. However, sometimes this happens when a person has reached a certain level of mastery in some kind of activity and does not see opportunities for further growth and development, he just becomes bored. I do not want to work - it's a refusal to change something, instead of reconsidering my interests and opportunities. This may be caused by the fear of being insufficiently successful in the new occupation.
There is a category of people who basically love work, but one that does not require presence in the office from 9 to 5. "I do not want to work in the office!" - that's what we hear from them. This phenomenon is becoming more common now that the choice of freelance professions has expanded, and indeed, when people found out that freelancing exists. However, it should be noted that not all are opponents of work in the office. First, the office office is different, and if you are disappointed in one place of work, it is not necessarily that both will fail. In addition, many are impressed by the idea that they are waiting for a personal workplace, they like working with colleagues, they know how much they will quit their job (unlike a freelancer who tries insanely in the night to finish the project that had to be handed over yesterday). On the other hand, freelance has a lot of advantages: a person plans his day himself, can control the amount of incoming work, arrange an unplanned rest, the approach depends solely on his ability to work, talent and desires.
There are reasons independent of the people themselves. Often we say: "I do not want to work" when emotionally and psychologically exhausted themselves in a certain field. In psychology, this is called professional burnout. This often occurs in occupations requiring intense contact with people. At some point a person suddenly loses interest in everything, towards work as such, towards colleagues, perhaps experiencing a feeling of annoyance and vexation. Sometimes, being trapped in such emotions, a person goes to work, which requires minimal contact with people. To avoid such an outcome, psychologists recommend changing the place of work or occupation every 7 years, and in the case of occupations requiring work with people - every 4 years.
