Do you Know that Being Passionate about Work Creates Happiness?



Work is perceived to be a punishment from God to men while in the Garden of Eden. You will find happiness if you`re passionate about your work. It will make you give your best to the society.

What about you being passionate about your work? Well…my bible tells me that work is a curse given to men. You and I were cursed by God to eat through sweating. That is the reason we find work to be tedious without any passion. We engage ourselves in various activities that leave us entirely exhausted and with less time for fun, romance and relaxation with our families.

We become unhappy in our lives and hate work to hell. We feel like not facing another day. We hate our bosses who pressure us so much to do things that we don't like doing. But do you agree with this sentiment? It is not absolutely true. You will notice why it's not true in this article as you continue reading it.

The kind of job you do defines whom you are. It gives you status and title in the society. No wonder when I meet with people and their second question they ask me is what I do for a living. Sometimes, some of us get less attention from people when we find ourselves in a group of professions. How do you feel when you're in such situation?

The jobs we do are supposed to provide for our needs but they may result to boredom and turn us from being happy to being unhappy due to stress. This is when we come to realize that the amount of money we get as salaries is far less to cater for our essential needs. Our expenses outweigh our salaries. We drag ourselves to work every each day yet we are running our lives in deficits.

Majority of employees who are in this situation feel like quitting their present jobs since their peanut salaries does not make any meaning in their lives. In order to overcome this unhappiness of work, you should not focus on your salary. There is more to be derived from your job that will lead to true happiness and satisfaction of work.

It will motivate you, take you to heights of high grounds, make others happy and appreciate you, free you from unnecessary worries, will make you feel like working throughout without stopping each day, and of all it will give you confident. Perhaps that is why you find some people spending many hours working without complaining.

Did you get what I was referring to? I am taking about passion. Passion makes you to perceive your work beyond the money you earn as salary in your job. It makes your life to be happy and the society will feel happy after rendering your services to them because it really makes you to give your best from the bottom of your heart. It drives your life to heights you never dreamed of once you realize it. It will make you realize that everything in this planet [earth] is not all about money.
