Doing What You Love

    What do you want to be when you grow up? When asked the question, did you have an answer at the ready, or did you need a few minutes to think about it? We all have dreams of becoming something great, like a fireman, a teacher, or a rock star. Well, how did you do? Maybe you never desire to be what you set out to be or said that you would become.

    The older we get, our tastes change, our view of the world changes, even our goals change.

    One of the most important lessons I've learned during my career path is to do something you love to do. I feel that if you enjoy what you make a living at, you end up being happy in more ways than one.

    While no job or business is perfect, the important thing is to enjoy it, even learn from it. If you are unhappy in your current situation, why not take steps now to change it? If you are already there, I applaud you. If not , realize that it may take some time to figure out what you really want to do, and even more time to actually get there. That's all right! I can tell you from experience that finding and doing what you love are absolutely worth it. All of the research, training, and hands-on experience have made me a stronger, happier person.

    You'll be happier for it. Trust me. I promise you will never look back.

A. But then again, things change.

B. Do what you love and love what you do.

C. Life itself becomes much more interesting and fun.

D. You must have met with such situation as a little child.

E. Maybe you will find that the new job is more suitable for you.

F. Somewhere out there is a job or business that is perfect for you.

G. I'm sure you were asked this question at least once when you were a youngster.

And very often we don't realize it's there until it's killing us. We must get rid of worry before it destroys us. But how should we do it? {#blank#}1{#/blank#}

    Do what you need to do.
