My friend satish is in 9-5 job. His salary is pretty good. He is happy with his job.
Satish's brother Akash work in MNC company which does not follow 9-5 timings. Akash earns much more than Satish.
Satish has big family to support and he does not want to take risk by changing his job. There are many people like Satish who are trapped in big family problems regarding money etc. So they look for constant income per month and with this philosophy they run their complicated family peacefully.
Akash is unmarried person. He can take risks regarding his earning. Therefore Akash keep hoping his job and try to fetch maximum money as his salary.
Now question arises what's wrong in being an average man and leading a peaceful life with 9-5 job. Some time taking risk to become a big industrialist can put one in odd circumstances.
Problem is not there if one wishes to achieve higher goals. Problem lies if one does not respect persons doing 9-5 job.
One should remember there is possibility one is earning much higher than average man but he is still unhappy. This is situation which one should take care before criticising persons doing 9-5 job and are leading peaceful life.
Moral of story is one should focus on living peaceful happy life, may it is 9-5 job Or other job.
