5 Reasons To Do What You Love For a Living
I believe you've heard of people who are well to do but committed suicide for reasons whatsoever... The news houses carry such from time to time no doubt. It makes a lot of people wonder when even the rich commit suicide!
It makes you ask questions like... What on earth would make someone who has everything going on good to just decide one day to commit suicide? Its unbelievable most times. It raises so many questions that only the wise would go beyond the action, to know and learn from the reasons that led to the action.
Classes of people who you might have heard or read about that have committed suicide include - bank managers, top sales executives, multi millionaires and billionaires alike, to successful career and business moguls.... the list go on and on.
A Major Reason Why The Rich Commit Suicide:
Lack of Fulfilment - Have you heard people who dread Mondays? It's like, "Oh no I'm going to work again!" They don't love their their jobs but they love the pay! LOL.
There is no doubt that a fulfilled person is a happy person. When an individual loses fulfilment in whatever he or she does, stress, frustration and unhappiness sets in. If that state of frustration is not arrested, your guess is good as mine.
So I have tried to itemize 5 reasons I believe you should commit to doing what you love for a living.
1. Money Is Not Everything - If money was everything, and life could be bought, the rich would have bought lives so they could live forever! But you see money is just a means to an end. And not an end in itself.
If you pursue after what gives you fulfilment, money would eventually follow; as long as you remain innovative and continue to work smart not necessarily hard.
2. You Have Only One Life - You can only be you once in life. The rat race of pursuing 'things' is what the majority of people do. dare to make your life a difference. Utilize it to fullness. Let this one life bring you fulfilment.
3. You Get To Live Longer - Stress makes people age faster. At least researchers have proven that. The happier and fulfilled you are, the better your life continues to radiate. No hypertensions, no stress, no worries - at least for long,...
Fulfilment makes you supercharged to live as long as....LOL
4. You Get Fulfilled And Paid - What could be better than living your life and people pay you for living your life?! Nothing could be as cool as that. You never get to complain again, because it's what you love right? I believe so. Even when you face challenges you get over it quickly. After all it's what you love.
5. Every Night Becomes A Good Night - No more complains because you live everyday doing what you love doing for a living.
At the end of it all, a regular job may be the source of fulfilment for some. While it may not be same for others. Thus, don't just run off and quit that job in the name of finding fulfilment please. Plot your exit carefully from whatever doesn't give you fulfilment into the real deal that gives you a life you can call life!
Cheers to a fulfilled life!
