Most of the issues we observe at workplace and in general life ultimately translates to the lack of spirituality in our day to day life. (More about spirit and spirituality at Wikipedia.)
Did you ask these questions to yourself? – a) What is the meaning of your life? b) What do you want to do with your life? c) What motivates you to work? d) Are you able to differentiate personal life from work life? Our current system of education does not help us find the right answer to these questions.
Today materialism is a great influence in our lives. Wealthy people are getting obsessed with accumulating more wealth in spite of knowing deep in their hearts that the wealth does not create happiness. The poor, are trying hard to become wealthy in spite of knowing that the wealth alone cannot create happiness. The race for materialism is depressing. Human consciousness and values has taken a back seat in this race. Our basic needs have expanded to owning posh villas, enjoying foreign food, costly designer clothing, hi-tech entertainment, pubs, clubs, etc.. Personal ambitions are around individual achievements, power and position. Social consciousness and values does not get into the list of personal ambitions.
