Do we like what we do?

I happily agree and could get my answer in one of the Notes (given below) by our Hon. Hasmukh Adhiaji. It also reminded me of the existence of 'SPARK' element in our work by a well known author - Chetan Bhagat.

"We all have to work. No one can sit idle for long. Even when we sit idle, our mind continues to work. Work is our constant companion. It occupies most part of our life. We spend most of waking hours doing one thing or the other. If we do not relish the work that we do, we are bound to feel bad and miserable. So it is important to have correct disposition to work.

What should be our attitude to work? The first thing is to accept that work has to be part of our life, so no point in wishing or wasting it away. Secondly, we may try and choose the work, if choice is on hand. If the work is of your liking, we are likely to contribute the best of your efforts. But in case if it is not possible to choose, it is better to start liking it. Thirdly, we must keep balance in variety of roles we have to play in life i.e. role of an employee or a professional, role of father, mother, son, daughter, husband, wife etc. Some people work hard but only in one area. They tend to neglect other roles. This throws one’s life out of gear."
