Love what you are doing. How can you always love what you are doing? How can we make ourselves enjoy the things we are doing? I am listing all the things that will happen or the things I would be getting if I continue to do what I am doing so that I will still continue doing that thing. The effect of that one is that I will just have to love what I am doing so that when I think of the things that I will be getting, after all of the hardships that happened while doing the thing I am doing will make me realize those things I have listed. How about you guys, how can we make ourselves love what we are doing?

It must be your own choice and interest.

Thank you for the response. To love what we are doing it should be a choice then and should be one of your interest. But how are you going to love what you are doing if you don't like it at first?

I wouldn't worry about it. Just because you love something now does not mean that you have to forever. It should be good enough to just love it today. People get caught up in forevers and can get discouraged. But forever does not exist. Only today exists. So whatever you are doing just love it today.

Yes you are absolutely correct. It will not be forever you will do the things you are doing. It will just make you do it for sometime if it involves your work or your job in doing that. But it is not all the time you are doing it. Have a great day and thank you for the nice response.

It's easy. Find something that you are passionate about. Something that you enjoy doing no matter how many times you do it. Are some hobbies. Why do they call it hobby? Because it is something that one is passionate about and willing to spend time and efforts on doing it whether it brings economic returns or not. It is the satisfaction that one derives from the act that keep one on the game. So you have it. There is nothing you need to do to make yourself love the things you are passionate about. It is just natural. It is like magnet attraction. People tuned in to different things. So it is more appropriate to say that find the things that you enjoy performing.

I think, the secret to loving what you're doing is to immersing yourself in it. When we say immerse, it's like putting yourself wet, soaked and too much involved in what you do. Enjoy what you do, and you'll surprised, you are starting to love it!

Thank you so much for a wonderful answer. Yes you are correct that you let yourself get involved much on what you are doing. Then after sometime you will see yourself enjoying already on it. Have a great weekend.

To do something well you have to like it. That idea is not exactly novel. We've got it down to four words. " Do what you love." Life is too short. In the new world, we don't have to love everything that we do, but we need to find happiness and meaning in most things we do. To love what you do is a key to success that is often overlooked. Maybe because it sounds out of people in business lingo. But I know for a fact that passion is absolutely necessary to achieve any kind of long lasting success, and I know this from experience. Enthusiasm on big scale equals passion. If you don't have passion, everything you do will fizzle out, or be mediocre, at best. You have to love what you do in order to make it in a big time way. People who love what they do never give up because they'll never have a reason to give up, no matter what their circumstances might be. It's an intangible momentum that can make you indomitable. Another way to see this clearly is to realize that a passionate love for what you do conquer fear. This is an important fact when considering achievement of any sort. Every great and commanding movement in the annals of the world is the triumph of enthusiasm. Nothing great was ever achieved without it. Keep it in mind as you work to identify what you love to do.
