The 'I' Who Chose Freedom Over Stability

If you join this company, you'll be set for life.
That is what
our parents' generation believed and lived by.
And we, too,
have unconsciously been made to walk
along that 'track'.

What am I
working so hard for,
anyway?
I am working hard, aren't I?
Will I continue to work
here forever?

Do you not find yourself
harboring such questions?

I, too, once
carried such questions in my heart
while continuing to sacrifice my rest, my time,
and even myself.

Since one day,
I decided to live without
belonging to any company.

Because
'Company = Security'I finally woke up
from that illusion.

In a life spent just working
as a part of a company,
you cannot find true freedom
or heartfelt happiness.

When I realized that,
I became prepared to choose
a 'way of working I choose myself'.

The 'era of lifetime employment'
where we believed that belonging to a company
meant security
has already ended.

I was taught that endurance is a virtue,
and even though I kept working without seeking reward,
in reality,
'a convenient existence to be used'was all I was,
I realized one day.

I thought I was being protected by the company,
but in reality, I 'was not protected'.
That fact was only revealed to me
after my heart and
body were completely worn out.

Born into the era of lifetime employment,
raised by parents who
told me to 'join a stable company',
I took a job.

12-hour shifts were the norm,
even without overtime pay,
even without holiday pay,
I worked for the company more than anyone,
and I believe I served it more than anyone.

And yet,
sudden reassignments, unreasonable personnel changes,
no raises, no bonuses,
and...
they fire people easily.

'There are plenty of people to replace you'

When I was told that,

'I am a consumable item...'

...my heart broke.

That is precisely why
I began to walk the path of choosing
my own 'way of working'.

'Not belonging anywhere'was a choice
that also brought fear,
but now I can say with pride
that it was the first step toward regaining
'freedom' and 'dignity'.

If you are currently
• Feeling like every day is just passing by
• Working hard but not being rewarded
• Feeling like your heart is wearing thin

If you are in such a state,
please stop for a moment
and ask yourself.

"Are you really okay with things staying this way?"

Even if it was a place you chose yourself,
instead of continuing to wear yourself out there,
please try to believe in and think aboutyour own "power."

That will be the first step
toward changing the stage of your life━━━.
