She realized that besides work, there are many beautiful things one could enjoy. She shouldn't be trapped to one place, one job.
"I hope I can have the time to enjoy my life. I want to enjoy the beauty of the sunshine, enjoy reading time with a cup of tea, and live in other places for a period. Life should be varied. I want to be the architect of my own life. "
Many people agree that heavy work pressures are the foremost reason for them to consider giving up their present job.
No one can resist the temptation of living a leisurely life free of worry. However, to retire at such a young age as your 30s or 40s seems ridiculous to some people.
25-year-old Wang Lingyu is a career woman. She believes people in society should not only think only about themselves. They need to consider their family and society as a whole.
"Having a job is very important. Not only because working can make money, but also because it is a way to show your sense of responsibility. I can't agree with the idea of quitting a job to just do whatever you want. You need to earn money to sustain your family and you need to contribute to society to make it better. For me, quitting your job is kind of like evading your responsibilities. I agree that sometimes people do feel tired and have a lot of work pressures but I would choose to change my job, not give up the idea of having a job."
Work to live or live to work? Wang Shaobin, a researcher at the Chinese Academy of Sciences suggests that the most important thing is to know what you want in your life.
"Many people now have the wrong idea about work and working. The purpose of their work is to work. And that is why they feel unhappy when they are at work. For that reason I suggest they take a break, but not to give up altogether. They can use their free time to find out what they are really interested in, or to rediscover their aims in life."
The expert says when life begins to overwhelm, we should take a moment to let the soul catch up with the body.
No matter how important work is, regardless of how much money one can earn, what we should do is follow our hearts to find the real spirit in our lives.
