Loving Work

Work is love made visible. And if you cannot work with love but only with distaste, it is better that you should leave your work and sit at the gate of the temple and take alms of those who work with joy.
Kahlil Gibran, The Prophet


Why do you do the work that you do? Is it for the money? Do you love what you do? Please give this question some serious consideration and answer honestly, because you must understand that the answer is critically important to your experience of wealth. Love is not something that comes to us from outside ourselves. Love is an internal orientation to the world, a posture from which we have gratitude and appreciation for the details of our life.
