Is it Important to Love Your Job?



With Valentine’s Day falling this week, we’re feeling a little sentimental and want to pose more of a philosophical question to you all: Do you think it’s important to love what you do?

Some experts say that it’s essential to love your job in order to be productive and fulfilled, while others think that the idea of trying to get paid for your passion puts too much pressure on the average person and, while ideal, it’s not necessary to be fulfilled.

Others find distinction between the job itself and how they perform said job to be where the satisfaction lies; meaning you may downright hate a job, but take pride in how well you do it.

What’s your take this week?  Tweet/Vote in our birdfeud below!

I want more than a paycheck, as I want to make a difference! A paycheck is still important. I can make a difference and make a contribution more if I love my job! I work in the non-profit sector in NYC and I would love to hire right the first time for your organization!
