- I think the bigger question might be what you want out of life. The 40hr routine might provide enough stability for you to do other fun activities. Maybe you're looking for more challenge? You might be able to talk to your boss about more difficult work. Working less hours. What if you had more money now, how would you use it? Are there different ways of achieving that goal?
OK so I think we have wandered away from the actual question I asked but lets continue anyway :) At some level I am asking this because I feel that while what I do is important and it benefits others lives it is always under the control of others. What I want out of life is a difficult question and not one with a single answer (at least not one that provides any level of detail). Your point about the 40hr work week providing stability is true but at some point stability is not enough. The work I do is very challenging but so what, does the fact that it is difficult mean it is more worthy than easier work? Hardly.
