There is an episode of the show “Recess” that has had a very big impact on my life. It’s the one where Hank the janitor is a math whiz and was offered 3 high paying jobs doing things he would love to do, instead of being a janitor. At the final part of the episode Hank ends up turning all the jobs down because he did not want to turn what he loved doing into a job.
Love What You Do
Growing up from then I never thought you could love what you do as a job because you would no longer enjoy doing that. I have come to realize that is crap. Life is too short to work a job you hate or do not enjoy doing. Question everything you are told even if the person is correct. Find people you trust to give advice. One of my favorite sayings is “Do what you love, and the money will come.”
