Enjoyment In Life's Pursuits

The world today is full of uninspired people who simply do what they do as a means to an end. While there are some who love what they do, there are many who don't. What can be more dangerous to the human spirit, than spending their lives in doing things which they are not passionate about, and which they don't even at least find enjoyable?

I know many people who don't enjoy what they do. I have members of my family who don't enjoy what they do. Especially when choosing careers, most people just find what they can do that is more profitable or easier than things that they would do if there were no other considerations.

I firmly believe that everybody should find some reason to go and do things other than that they have to, simply to survive. Whatever you are, whether a cashier, a mother, a student, or anything else, I challenge you to truly love what you do.

"Adam fell that men might be; and men are that they might have joy."
-2 Nephi 2:25
