Do What You Love And You'll Never Work A Day In Your Life
Welcome and thank you for returning to the Straight Up Mindset Blog. This is the February edition of the blog. This month's series is the Love Series and this week's topic is LOVE.
This week in the Love Series we are going to talk about, you guessed it, LOVE. It's amazing how this topic for the blog lands on this exact date as Valentines Day. Now all though it is Valentines Day and most guys are out right now scrambling to get a last min gift(C'mon Fellas). That Love is not what we are discussing today. Today we are talking about loving what you do.
How many of you out there are in a profession or work in an area that you truly love? I want you to really think about this question. Do you wake up ready to go and conquer the day at work? Do you get fulfillment from your job or profession? If the answer is no then its time to re-evaluate things. If your job seems like a burden everyday you go in, then why are you there? Think about all the hours you work at your job. All the nonsense you put up with at work from managers and co-workers. You allow yourself to get beat down everyday and you endure this pain because what? Its a paycheck? Good benefits? Think about if you put forth that same effort towards actually doing what you love how much more rewarding that would be for you and those around you?
Will it pay as much upfront, probably not but your reasoning has to be deeper than money. Most successful people who pursued their love and passion started out with just hopes and dreams and not a dime to their name. The difference is they truly loved and believed in what they were doing. They endured the same pain and hardship as you do, but they are being fulfilled by doing what they love to do. Don't waste your time at some dead end job anymore. We've said this to you before, sit down and really think about what you are called to do. Write it down, talk to someone about it and pray about it. I promise you the answer will come. Before we started D&J Empowerment Group I had no clue what I was meant to do. I was all over the place from Basketball player, artist, producer...etc. None of that worked out cause it wasn't what I was meant to do.
Until one day I realized that it was right under my nose. I've always helped people and tried to help guide people in their life journey. God placed Durale and I on the same path and we formed D&J Empowerment Group. We started our journey by Encouraging, Inspiring and Empowering Communities. The kicker is I didn't figure this out until my 30's. You are not to young to start figuring out what it is you are here to do. Also you are not too old to find your calling and pursue it. The key is once you figure it out you have to pour every ounce of your soul into it and persevere.
