When I look back on all the jobs I’ve ever had, the one that was the most dead-end is the one I remember the most fondly…

Love your wisdom about how value works, and I’m eager to see you develop your concept of “pragmatic peace.”

I'd say that working as an overnight stocker was the most dead-end of them all... yet it wasn't until I hit bottom that I found a job that I could thoroughly enjoy. Would it be safe to say that this dead-end job that you remember fondly was also your <em>last</em> dead-end job? Or, at least, close to your last? And, don't worry, the concept of pragmatic peace will be developed until there is nothing left to explain about it... then it will be applied to other concepts as well... I think some wise man once related a blog's theme to a flashlight... who could it have been... I'm sure you're familiar with the concept of leading others to a conclusion through using a common, recurring theme. ;) You know, I’ve had plenty of dead-end jobs before, especially working retail… I’d say that working as an overnight stocker was the most dead-end of them all… yet it wasn’t until I hit bottom that I found a job that I could thoroughly enjoy.

I'll definitely work on them as fast as I can, without sacrificing quality, though. In fact, for this series, I'm going to be trying to increase quality by outlining the posts first, rather than just typing it out in one long session, then proofing it the next day as I've been doing before.

I have discovered in my own life that sometimes, let me say that differently, many times, the only thing that I can change is my attitude, especially when it comes to jobs and relationships. It also helps to have a sense of humor where you can laugh at yourself. I have a book waiting to be read ,along with several others, called Attitude Is Everything. I look forward to more of your articles. My 31 year old son just recently moved back home with my husband and I until he can get back on his feet financially. Seems to be a lot of that going around. Best wishes. Adam, this is a great post.
