The greatest lie the devil ever told was “do what you love and you’ll never work a day in your life.”
I once heard someone say "do what you love and you'll work twice as hard because you care too much"
I did what I loved until June 29. It was work, but it was also what I loved. Now I'm just working.
"Find what you love: do it on nights and weekends."--The Onion headline accidentally saying true things
This also reminds me of how some (management) talks about employees who work at NGOs. Because one is ostensibly working for a cause in which one believes, one should be okay with working longer hours for lower pay. That’s… not how it works
Seriously. We’ve all been sold this lie that work should be the center of our lives.
brought to mind this Dirty Jobs episode where they interview a fireworks tech. Mike Rowe asks if he has any advice for budding pyromaniacs or fireworks enthusiasts, and the guy's first response is: "Don't do this" www.youtube.com/watch?v=DuxG...
Well I would love being rich enough to never work again so it isn't *wholly* untrue.
work would be great if it was something that wasn't required for survival, and instead something you elected to do for your own advantage that is far different from turning the thing you love doing into the thing you have to do to survive
GOD. Why do you have to call me out like this
I was an art major when I first enrolled at university. I realized quickly that I would grow to hate art if I continued. So I changed majors.
