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.
