Life’s Too Short – Love Your Career or Change it

If you don’t love waking up and going to work every morning, maybe it’s time you made some changes. After all, life is too short to not love your job. Now you may be thinking that having a great job and loving what you do is more like a dream for those ‘lucky’ people. But loving your job can be more than just a dream, it can be a reality. Putting all your time and energy into something that doesn’t bring you some sort of happiness is grueling and more damaging than you think. After all, chances are you spend more time at work than with your friends and family or working on hobbies.
