DO what you love

I find it amazing that people live a life doing what they hate to do. They are unhappy with their job, unhappy with where they live, unhappy with this and that…yet they never do anything about it. Some people view work like a prison. They are trapped and can never get out alive. I have a crazy idea for these people…quit and move! When I am coaching people in this situation, I tell them this and they look at me as if I just presented the most outrageous idea on the planet.

Why would someone work a job they hate, live in a house they despise, and be surrounded by an environment that is limiting them? They are not in a prison. They don’t have to live trapped by life. All they need to do is change the situation. Get a plan and live the plan. It may take some time to change jobs, it may take time to sell their house and look for another, it may take time to save money, but at least they are moving forward in their life. Sometimes I want to scream, “STOP living a nightmare and start living your dream!” Will Rogers said,

 “If you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is stop digging.”

 I love the milk commercial years ago that said, “Happy cows make happy milk.” Well, the same is true…happy people make happy lives. I have never met someone who loved what they did and were unhappy. However, I have met thousands of people that hate what they do and are unhappy.

When you find what you love to do and you do it, you are going to find joy. It is when we force ourselves to do things we aren’t wired for, that we lose purpose. You will never see someone full of purpose that is living a miserable life. Here is a simple rule to follow…

 Do WHAT you love, and LOVE what you do. 

 Many people are unhappy in life because they never take the steps towards their dreams. They get stuck in maintenance mode and they never venture out into greatness. Always remember life is too short to waste it!.Live the life you were created to live!

What you are going to do to start doing the things you love to do?
