It is, of course, good to find work that one will like to do, but if one cannot do that, then one must learn to like the work that one has to do. This is my advice under all circumstances to everybody.
Work is only a means of earning money to live reasonably and comfortably in this existence, and it is not the main purpose. The main purpose is spiritual. So, as we say in India, work is just to keep the body and soul together until the body can be dropped by the soul for the last time and go on its own journey towards the merger with the Ultimate, the Divine.
