Do a thing because you love it (4.00 / 4)

because it gives your life purpose and meaning. Do it so that, no matter what happens, whether you make money or not, whether you achieve recognition or not, you will know that you said "Yes" to the things that mattered most.

My Mother told me when I was a small child, "Everyone has the same two jobs in life. The first job is to find what you love, even if it takes your whole life. The second job is to do it with all your heart."

My Mother was an incredible human being. I have done my best to take her advice.

We use money to live. But money and the piles of "stuff" you buy with it are no substitute for a life rich in experience. There is never enough money. There is never enough "stuff".
