Success will breed success, in your life and career if you ultimately love what you do because let’s face it, what you decide to do as a job or career, you are going to be doing it a lot during your life time. Whatever direction you are currently pursuing in the health industry, you know it can be very rewarding – and also very difficult. It’s tough to get a career going in the first place. It requires commitment, determination, and persistence. Again, though, the ideal is to do what you love, most experts will agree that this ideal is something we need to do every day as a requirement to live happily. This means you must pursue your passion if you are to be successful and happy in life. What is necessary for you to remember though is for you to love what you do. And that’s possible for anyone and everyone. So, let’s turn the tables and advise loving what you do instead. This is not an easy task, but your attitude toward your job is totally up to you. Deadlines have moved up against your wishes, people didn’t do the work they were supposed to do, you name it. You can get angry and have it affect your entire outlook. However, you could have chosen to view it differently. You could have focused on the flexibility the job offers and the fact that you get to attend most of your children’s events. You could have accepted that you can’t control Medicare, referral sources and patients and just done the job at hand instead of taking things personally. Therefore, by doing that, you will hopefully reduce the frustration level and just appreciate the industry that you have an opportunity to utilize to make a living. You will always have bad days, but realize, how you can dislike something you are vested in. Hopefully you can decipher the difference between doing what you love and loving what you do.
