Lawyer Gives HONEST Career Advice  

She’s got it really at 27. Very wise for her age.

She’s spot on. I have been off for almost 4 months now by choice and I’m using my time to renovate a house myself. The work is excruciatingly hard and difficult but I am much happier cos I’m doing exactly what I want to do rather than what my boss wants me to do

It's good to see somebody talking to people on the street not trying to make them look stupid but intelligent people

Hell yeah, I think so. If you’re paid well and have enough free time, you can still be happy

Everyone’s idea of “happy” and happiness is different.

Yup she answered it in a very profound way at the end of the day when u are at the end of ur life u are not thinking about how much money u miss out on u are thinking about all that time u had to create a wonderful life full of memories and experiences at the end of day u can always make more money but u can't make more time

No, I leave the house at 7 am and come back at 5:30. I am at work more than my own home so NO. If you hate your job how can you still be happy if it consumes you? 😭

Ive grown up really poor my entire life, and recently came down on harder times during which I met some of the best people Ive ever met. My best friend paid for my trip to jamaica, just bc she wanted me there. Thay was when I realized that I needed to travel to be happy, and that even though I cant afford to go overseas often, I can probably afford a weekend trip somewhere in the U.S, which is already huge as fuck (blessing and a curse) if I live really cheaply abd frugally. I might end up living really boring when im at home, but Id rather be able to experience a lot of new things in the places I visit.

If you're looking to have a job make you happy, you're in trouble.

she had me at .. that's a really good question. and traveling..

I am working on a job that I don't love but it gives me so much time that I can balance my finances, health and do more in life, and also finding ways to exit. It works for me overall Im happy😊

It's nice to see Kyle from Nelk doing something productive

she’s really smart

Even little trips are so important. A night in a hotel a few hours away ❤

I work 12 hour shifts, 7 days on, 7 days off, 7 nights on, 7 days off. If it weren't for the night shifts, this would be the ideal work life balance.

I guess it depends what job you do. Some jobs are more a vocation, and bring a lot of joy and fulfilment. Excessively long hours are obviously detrimental to your health, whatever job you do (particularly in very high pressured, demanding jobs) and of course having a personal life, hobbies etc are important, but each to their own I think.

Happiness fades turns into sadness in a never ending circle. Don't expect any kind of solution from consuming, traveling or any other person or activity. Learn to accept and be calm. That's the only long term solution. You don't deserve anything, so stop feeling sorry for yourself.

Leaving at 5:00 p.m. is almost your whole day, four hours in a job that you hate may not ruin your happiness so much, but more than that is impossible.

Happiness is overrated

Smart cookie

O Boy ,No need to play in 0.25× speed )

She's learnt those lines well.

Smart chica!

She is so nervous ! Waouh !

I work, then crawl in bed. I couldn't ask for a better life.

Traveling with kids is exhausting lol 😆

Or we could rebel.

❤

Try for a career and life that you don’t need a vacation from.

🌟Fantastic post!⛄"May your professional life be filled with happiness, success, and fulfillment!"^^ from Latvia

Traveling is so overrated

Are you on TikTok?

What's her @? She's so cute.

Weak arguments for a lawyer

Pretty lame advices that I would expect from a highly educated intelligent people like lawyers. She takes her job as a mcchicken employee 9 to 5!

Women love traveling. Lol. Its this fomo that women have. Thats why they are nevet satisfied. They always wana see the grass in the neighbors yard

i enjoy the fact that she said traveling was a privilege

I think we need to intentionally make time for happiness everyday. I was raised with the mindset of always thinking about the long-term and making (financial etc) sacrifices today for a better "tomorrow" but that is such a lie. I am now unlearning a lot of that and trying to not be guilty about spending on things/experiences that make me happy. It's a mindset!

Great advise..do not let a house purchase chain you to a job you hate.

I like peaceful life, neither happy nor unhappy, just peace. Happiness is a relative thing.

Wow, I really loved her take on the question. I couldnt agree more

Yes. Hate my job. But financial stability makes me happy.

Making memories and exposure to different cultures is a true BLESSING.

I work until 6 and I hate my job for a year and I'm terrible I got into deep depression and other things. I quit in december and I can slowly find my happiness again.

I'm 42 and wish I had traveled more when I was in my 20s. I was too concerned with getting an apartment and all new furniture and a brand new car... I could have just stayed in the studio apartment and driven a used car, and put that money towards travel. Now I have kids and lots of bills, and probably can't really travel like I want to until my kids are out of the house.

We forget all the parents out there busting their ass minimum wage, crying behind closed doors, and coming home and be happy just to watch their little ones smile. I think you can be happy with a job you hate, but you would be happier with a job you love and I hope everyone gets to have that and don't have to put up with an awful job

Personal happiness is more important than materialistic things, we living on borrowed time

Traveling is just a means of escape from your own life.. my life is great I have no need to travel and waste more money on shit that will be a memory in a week. Put more effort into your own life. Travel when you're retired or make the means to do it without needing to worry about money

I like the advice of the young man when he said do your and don’t try to live beyond one’s capacity. Relax and enjoy life!

Happiness is an inside job... This is what you need to teach your children. Otherwise they will become consumed with their occupational unhappiness.

Smart lady.

This person said "If you can leave work at 5pm and still have a full day". Where? My ass is going to bed after I get home, make/eat dinner, clean up some and relax for a few. I am too old for this conversation.

Mmmmmmmm yes hate my job but I am happy that it allows me to keep my wife home with my daughter and I get to come home two both their smiles

That’s so false you can definitely be happy and hate your job. The issue is people often focus to much on their job especially young people 20-30. In 25 I hate my job but my coworkers are great and I make time for family, friends and things I like to do. Life is about balance. So what you’re 30 and not where you want to be there are people who were heavily addicted to drugs,been to jail, homeless and now they’re 40+ and millionaires. It all about perspective and making time for things to love. Money,fame and ect is not the end or be all in life.

Who works 12-14 hour days? Wait. Americans.

Solid advice.

This is just my opinion but focus on Finances and Fitness. I've met a lot of happy people that do these two things well. I mean look at the interviewer - yes he is genetically gifted but he is doing great things, has purpose, is obviously going places and is more fit than 95% of the population.

I think it depends on what you mean by hating your job. If the job sucks but the coworkers are good, then I think that's ok.

Exactly. So, stop doing overtime. Work your shift and live your life. No one ever said in a funeral in a eulogy that I wish my mom (or dad) worked longer hours.

The fact that she stated that "traveling is a privilege" is so humbling, she seem very wise for 27

My happiness is not derived from materials. I don't care how terrible the job is, I will gladly suffer if it means I can give opportunities to my children and keep my family happy and loving

“Go on vacation… don’t buy a house” is advice now? Alright, well enjoy your vacations while MORE lawyers and other rich pricks buy up all the houses and insist on renting them out to you when you get back 😂😂😂 I’ve got my house. It was worth not taking a vacation. Every evening is a vacation now.

Traveling is overrated, happiness too. Just survive you don’t need to be happy.

To be happier... Meet a good friend or friends everyday. Go to the gym, play some games, and have a hobby! Travelling is good but some other state or country is making money from you... Well that's why they spent all that money on advertisements so you believe that traveling is happiness. Have a house by 30, 40 buy the next one. If your parents didn't make money for you to travel... You owe it to your kids! One generation has to work really hard for the next gen to travel and take risks.

3 pm tops. Walk out that door. We spend our life in cubicles; while working is good for the soul you should be able to have a life. V hard to cook, clean, bathe kids, go to gym, do groceries or visit a sick parent in the 5 hours we get after work - weekends are laundry and cleaning…need I say more…American work culture is ridiculous.

No. Buy a house and pay it off as fast as you can. Don’t fall for temporary happiness. Work is not a hobby. Feel good about completing a good days work.

This is bs. It's the well of western idea of happiness. The rest of the world works hard just to survive and you know they can still be happy because it's about appreciating the good things and not constantly thinking about all the bad things.

Nice video 👏👏 2hrs 53mins is pretty low for a day in the life, cause majority of people definitely use their phones for way more than 3hrs a day. You should try to actually use the phone for everything you'd usually do in your usual day with your usual phone ( apart from photography, cause not everyone is a photographer)

We have to these these companies haven't slaved us I've society has structured itself in a way where we have to work to survive. We can't not work. Literally most of ours for some people their whole identities is their job and how successful they are at it. I am happier when I'm doing things I am interested in So unless I have a job That is allowing me to partake in whatever I'm interested in it's just not going to work I'm not going to ever be happy there it's always just going to be a paycheck. I'm a gamer and I don't know why I haven't started streaming or making video game content It's just because I feel like everybody is already doing it so there's no way I couldn't make a living off of it without bringing something new to the table I bought everything I needed to stream and I just haven't done it yet because I'm like what could I do differently to stand out. I spend all my free time gaming anyway I do want to travel too so why not just find a way to turn it into income also someone told me I should try being a travel agent but I think that would have ruined traveling for me because I wouldn't be traveling for me I would be literally working

She looks like Steve Smith(Australian cricketer), press the like button if you agree👍

That is financially illiterate advice because a house appreciates over time while that money is gone with renting and going on vacations. You could afford so much more vacations by increasing the value of a house (not to mention avoiding rent increases).

She is right. I hate my job, I am working in a cold dirty place... 5 am to 3pm 5 or 6 days a week. When I 'm coming back home I am going to bed. I have no personal life and I realized that it is not good for my mental. I seriously thinking about quitting my job.

No. 8 hours per day, plus getting ready for the day and commuting is too much time to be miserable.

I don't like my job but I only work 3 days per week, 9 and a half hours per day

Im not sitting on savings for a house. I traveled and made time for hobbies. I booked some therapy appointments. Yet sometimes i am still pretty unhappy. And that’s ok. 😅 i accept

Yeah she is to smart to be American, she probably is Canadian lol

You can't hate your job and be happy. You can be indifferent, but hate is too strong an emotion. Eventually you will lose that job one way or another. Best to try to move on.

Or Just Issue Credit As a Consumer That Already Owns Money

all things in moderation ✌🏽

Bro... she's not living in reality....you don't know life...

only if the happiness outside of work out weights the displeasure of work.
