Hustle Culture

 


  Have you heard about Hustle culture?. Hustle culture is known as "workaholism" which is all about constantly working. In our society, working hard is not enough, and chronic workaholism can be affected in the long run. If one of you aims for success and glory, whatever that may look like to you, know that working hard is part of it and not all of it. 

  Hustle culture is the collective urge to work excessively and to be better than everyone else and work longer and harder. It creates an environment of ruthless competition, encouraging people to clamber over each other to get to the top. Although, hustle culture sounds dangerously close to just being a workaholic. There are definitely quite differences. 

  The motivation behind hustling is usually better intended and individual to each person. Depending on the type of motivation, hustle culture can be beneficial to the worst.

  Working hard has only ever been beneficial in anyone's career. Especially when someone is straight out of college and working a full-time job, being able to prove their ability to work has never been more crucial. The average hustler believes that work is the centre of their identity. Their job makes them who they are and they are always able to encourage themselves to work more than that average person. Overall, this culture is characterised by an obsessive work ethic.

  That was beneficial of hustle culture. On the other hand, hustling is related to unbalance lifestyle. Lack of sleep, eat and rest could harm them to any potential health risk, including death. Moreover, one of the biggest contributors to the added stress that we're experiencing today is the constant comparison of ourselves to others. All over social media such as Instagram or Twitter, people continuously post their successes. That could cause comparing to ourselves and reducing our self-esteem. 

  Being able to set your own goal or dream and know what you're capable of is a good way to determine what you can accomplish. Being a part of hustle culture can be rewarding, but it's important to look out how it can cost. Pay attention to your own stamina, energy level and mental health. It's absolutely important to find your balance. Also, stop comparing yourselves to others. It gives you nothing but suffering. 

  Hopefully, this article is informative, and be more aware of hustle culture. Thank you and have a nice day 😀.

About Phubbing

    In the Digital Era, smartphones have become the number one priority in society. When it comes to our smartphones, nothing else in our lives gets as much attention. A single notification can branch to half days only checking the status or short videos on social media. If we lose it, the stress starts to build up rapidly. Getting by without a smartphone really is not possible anymore, and from that other areas of our lives are bound to be affected.   Phubbing describes the act of "phone-snubbing". It is a term that most people might not be familiar with, but the action is certainly one we all recognise. If we are going outside let's say, how often have we been physically in the presence of someone, but they're emotionally "not there" because they are absorbed in their smartphone? Quite a lot, isn't it?   Smartphones and text messaging help partners display love and affection to each other when they are physically apart. However, what happens when smart...
