Is Your Job Making You “Stupid”?
Adam Smith, author of The Wealth of Nations , once wrote that aperson who spends his life performing the same repetitive tasks“generally becomes as stupid and ignorant as it is possible for ahuman creature to become.” Wow! Now that’s not a pretty picture.Unfortunately, much of our work today consists of those boring,repetitive tasks.
But maybe you’re one of the many who have gotten caught up inthinking work is just something you do to support your weekends.Work is that necessary evil, a means to an end, or just a cursefrom God. You probably take your role of providing for yourself andthose depending on you seriously. But you don’t expect to enjoyyour work—you just do what has to be done.
