Would most or all of us agree that Americans put way too much weight or importance on what we do for a living?
My girlfriend was telling me about one of her friends and I asked her what he does for a living. She said he works at the YMCA as an activities instructor. I thought to myself, "well it took me years to figure out what I wanted to do long term too".
I almost immediately realized that perhaps this is what this young man loves to do, so as long as he can survive financially and he's happy, then he's "made it".
Do other cultures put too much weight into what people do for a living?
