Love + Vocation = Success
“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.”
-Khalil Gibran
The only way you can be successful is by finding a vocation you love and are passionate about. Otherwise it will be very difficult for you to achieve high levels of success. If you do not know what your true calling is, it may be beneficial to stop everything you’re doing and lock yourself in a room until you find out. Spending a week locked in your room is nothing compared to wasting years engaging in meaningless activities.
I feel entrepreneurs possess the willingness to pursue the things they enjoy as they are extremely motivated to take risks and initiative to get their businesses off the ground. It is not work, but a labor of love.
