When a person spends most of his or her time working a job with little job satisfaction, their life loses meaning. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

There is an opinion that spending the whole day long 6 days a week at

work

, which does not bring us any satisfaction, affects our purpose of

life

. I somehow agree with

this

opinion because

work

occupies a significant amount of time and if somebody feels unhappy during it, almost their whole

life

is spent in misery.

First

, it is true that the most enjoyable moments of our lives are spent with our friends and families.

However

, our occupation and time spent at

work

play a great part in our well-being and

sense

of fulfilment from

life

.

For instance

, if a person works at a daunting and unaspiring

job

at the end of the day they will feel completely drained and they will not have enough energy for an active

life

apart from their

job

.

Thus

, it is hugely important that

work

is rewarding and brings a

sense

of satisfaction.

Nevertheless

, the

sense

of meaningful

life

depends on a person’s outlook on

life

. Some people approach

life

as a positive experience, while others as a negative one.

That is

why those who have a positive outlook on

life

always have goals and plans for a future even if

work

does not give satisfaction to them.

In contrast

, pessimistic people even having a rewarding

job

can feel frustration and emptiness of

life

.

For instance

, one of my friends always complained about her

job

and lack of purpose in

life

but after a course with a psychologist, she realized that she has a well-paid

job

that makes it possible to purchase whatever she wants and travel and she is satisfied now. In conclusion, I agree that

work

is very important for our

sense

of fulfilment in our lives.

However

, it is not one only factor because a person's state of mind contributes to it as well.
