A big salary is much more important than job satisfaction. Do you agree or disagree?

#salary #job #satisfaction
HUMAN BEINGS HAVE BEEN SEARCHING THE WAYS OF BEING HAPPY FOR YEARS. WHILE SOME
PEOPLE
 THINK THAT A BIG WAGE IS MORE USEFUL IN THE WAY OF FINDING HAPPINESS THAN EMOTIONS, OTHERS BELIEVE THAT JOB SATISFACTION IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN
MONEY
.
THIS
 ESSAY WILL EXPLAIN WHY I THINK THAT WORKING WITH PLEASURE IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN SALARY AND OUTLINE THE POSSIBLE REASONS FOR IT.
FIRST
 AND FOREMOST,
PEOPLE
 SPEND AT LEAST 40 HOURS IN A WEEK, WHICH MEANS THE HALF OF AN AVERAGE LIFE, AT WORK. BECAUSE OF THAT FACT,
PEOPLE
 HAVE TO FEEL FULFILLED TO PROTECT THEIR MENTAL HEALTH. TO AN EXTENT, WHEN A PERSON WORKS WITHOUT A PLEASURE, HER WORKING HOUR WILL BECOME A WASTE AND ONE HOUR WILL
LAST
 FOREVER IN ADVANCE. IN THE END,
THIS
 WILL HAVE AN EXHAUSTING EFFECT AND SHE WILL SINK INTO A DEPRESSION AT THE END.
IN ADDITION
, ACCORDING TO MASLOW’S HIERARCHY OF NEEDS, IN SPITE OF
MONEY
 BEING ONE OF THE BASIC NEEDS, IT IS NOT ENOUGH FOR SELF-ACTUALIZATION. AS
PEOPLE
 ARE GETTING HIGHER LEVELS IN THE HIERARCHY , THEIR NEEDS BECOME MORE RELEVANT TO FEELINGS WHICH JOB SATISFACTION IS ONE OF THEM. WITHOUT
THIS
 FEELING,
PEOPLE
 CAN NOT COMPLETE THEMSELVES IN TERMS OF EMOTIONS. TO SUM UP,
ALTHOUGH
MONEY
 IS QUITE IMPORTANT IN A HUMAN LIFE, JOB SATISFACTION IS AN INDISPENSABLE ELEMENT AND MORE IMPORTANT TO CATCHING UP HAPPINESS OR TO MAKING REAL THE SELF-ACTUALIZATION. BECAUSE EVERYTHING DONE BY
PEOPLE
 SERVES TO FIND HAPPINESS, FEELING FULFILLED IN THE WORKPLACE IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN
MONEY
.
