[Essay] Satisfaction from one's career is more important than getting a higher salary

*Though this is an old essay I wrote before 2014, hope this could be a little help for someone who prepares one's essay or debate. 

 

I agree with getting satisfaction from one's career is more important than getting a higher salary.

First of all, the dictionary definition of a job is in order to earn a living based on their attitude and ability to engage in work for a period of time. So the job must be supported by attitudes and abilities. It is a contradictory story that the first criterion in selecting a job is money.

Secondly, Schumpeter, J routinely said the creative economy is made by breaking the old cycle of economic. The creative destruction process, he said means technological innovation. New product innovation, new materials, and new markets, such as the appearance of a new management structure process. All those things are led by entrepreneurship. Success, which is made by entrepreneurship always faces with a big loss. But when entering new areas, the ideology of challenging gives us exclusive benefits.

Thirdly, we usually have a negative perception of individualism. Of course, it made our group consciousness stronger. However, rational individualism has its own value. According to the rational individualism, each human has their own purpose and they are not a means for a way of achieving the objectives. So every human has their own economic decisions and their own right to autonomy. Individualists insist on society's needs and the imposed obligations to the individuals must not be happened. And in any way of life which includes a selfish way of life, an individual should be free to choose what they really want.

Finally, the philosopher Bentham said there are none other than the pleasure and happiness. According to him, happiness is the ultimate goal of life. And he said emotional happiness is much valuable rather than physical and material happiness because he thought most people pursue happiness which regarded as more elegant.

As a result, a high salary can make our life more comfortable but it isn't everything. There are many merits when we choose the job which we can be satisfied with. Don't leave regrets in your life. Do what makes you happy and something that you really want to do
