Day 97 of 100 Days of 100 Ways To Rule Your World

DO YOU DO WHAT YOU LOVE?

If you’re not, shouldn’t you be doing what you love?

By now you should know that there’s a huge difference between making a life and making a living. Look at yourself at this moment, what are you doing?  Are you making a living or making a life?  Like most of us you’re probably making a living and in this current economy even making a living is questionable!

Obviously, in good times and in bad economic times it takes money to do what you want to do.  Therefore, we are PROGRAMMED to work UNTIL we are 65 and retire so that we can do all we’ve always wanted to do.

How do we un-program ourselves from this way of thinking and believing?

It’s not easy but it CAN be done.  Taking small steps at first and then increasing your stride is the only way that I know of to change that belief.

Obviously, doing what you love 100% of the time, at this moment, is not feasible.  Right now, doing what you love 100% won’t put food on the table.

That’s why you have to start by taking small steps. By knowing what you would love to do for the rest of your life and figuring out at what point can you be paid 100% of the time then you can start increasing the workload from 1% to 50% to 100%.

Before you know it, you will be doing what you love and you will have plenty of time before you get to 65 when everybody else is starting to do it.

Thank you,
