DOING WHAT YOU LOVE

Good morning.  Another week done and another weekend coming up.  I'm looking forward to kayaking tomorrow with my whole family.  I will cross my fingers that that the weather will hold up.  At this point I'm so used to clouds it seems like the new normal for summer weather.  

If you've never gone kayaking you really should.  It is like meditating on water.  Peaceful, relaxing yet rejuvenating all at the same time.  What is it that you love doing?  Sometimes we start out doing something we enjoy and then over time our feelings have changed and our passion has died down.

Today's quote, "When doing what you love becomes stressful maybe what you are doing is not really what you love."  If we have chosen a profession that once brought us joy and happiness and continues to do so we are very lucky but when that joy and happiness turns to stress and anxiety it is time to rethink those choices.

We are ever evolving changing beings.  That's why so many people switch not only careers but entire lives.  What was once fun and exciting can turn out to be very different from when we started through no fault of our own.  

Why would anyone stay in a situation like that unless absolutely necessary?  If you must remain where you are in your work life then find something you love that brings you happiness and relives that stress.  In a perfect fantastical world we could leave those jobs we hate but in the one we live in we still must pay our bills and put food on our tables.

Never lose sight of your passion.  Think long and hard about the choices you make but don't beat yourself up over them.  This is just a phase and we are all far from done!
