George Burns said, “I honestly think it’s better to be a failure at something you love than to be a success at something you hate.”
This year you can focus your time and attention on the mundane: making money, paying bills, getting ahead — or you can focus on your passion: doing those things that don’t seem like work, but it feels so good getting them done. Such as writing songs, or working on a novel, or fixing someone’s car, or fixing their computer, or fixing their lunch.
Yeah, the bills have to be paid and you’ve got to earn a living. But don’t forget to do each day something you love. It may never bring you big success — not in the sense that it will pay for a home by the beach — but it will bring you more satisfaction than you can measure.
