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 😀.

Living a Simple Life

    In the modern era, living a simple life is quite tricky. We are constantly being attacked by ads, big sales, and messages telling us we need the latest gadget or must-have items. It must be difficult to resist these temptations when it feels like everyone around us is living a more glamorous life than we are.   Ok, let's take a look at what people often think of when they hear this phrase. Minimalism means having fewer things and only what is needed. Old-fashioned living means rejecting modernity and living like it's the past. Self-sufficiency means creating everything we need and buying as little as possible. All of those are close, but none of them are quite right. The opposite of simple is not modern, expensive, or dependent.   Living a simple life looks a little different for everyone, but at its core, simple living is all about focusing on the things that truly matter. For many of us, those include our family and our friends. By living a simple life, we can ...
