Trends of the Future for Business & Technology (2020 Update)

Sebagai profesional, adakalanya terpikirkan akan kejenuhan bekerja karena carrier pad yang tidak jelas, remunerasi yang tidak banyak meningkat dari tahun ke tahun, apalagi perusahaan saat ini sedang mengalami proses penurunan volume usaha. Sehingga kadang kerja hanya dirasakan sebagai beban dan pergi ke kantor hanya sekedar untuk dianggap tidak nganggur dihadapan rekan-rekan, saudara dan tentunya tidak punya penghasilan apapun juga. Mau ikut-ikutan membuka usaha; darimana modalnya? Gimana kalau bangkrut? Berapa lama bertahan usahanya? Apa mungkin dapat uang bulanan seperti gaji seperti saat ini?

Bukankah masuk suatu bidang pekerjaan itu susah dan harus melalui berbagai jenis test yang tidak kepalang tanggung sulitnya. Lantas kenapa setelah bekerja lantas kita berniat untuk keluar (baik berpindah ataupun mau coba peruntungan dengan membuka usaha)? Kita jarang merenung bagaimana hari-hari pertama saat bekerja dulu menjadi hari-hari yang membangkitkan semua enzim-enzim kegairahan untuk berkarya. Dan tidakkah kita terbayang bahwa jika saya keluar saat ini dari perusahaan ini, akan banyak orang yang siap menggantikan kita?Bekerja berarti kita berusaha bersahabat dengan Sang Waktu yang kadang terasa sulit akrab, tapi kadang justru menjadi kawan sejalan yang akan membawa kita menjadi sukses - tergantung kita bagaimana menyiasati persahabatan itu sendiri.

Tapi jika kita mampu mengelolanya, mengendalikan dan tahu solusi terbaik, maka justru akan menjadi wahana untuk kita tersenyum ketika semuanya bisa kita lewati dengan sukses dan berhasil. Dengan berbagai macam rasa yang menggelayuti setiap hari atas pekerjaan yang kita pikul di tempat kerja, maka sebenarnya hal itu akan menjadi rangkaian manis d
