REGARDLESS OF WHETHER OR NOT YOU HAVE TO YOU SHOULD

"Work banishes those three great evils: boredom, vice and poverty."

Voltaire (1694-1778) French writer/historian.

Work for one, two, or all three but none more than work to live.

THE HARDEST YOU'LL EVER NOT WORK

"Nothing is the hardest thing in the world to do."

Unknown

Ever wish you'd wake up independently wealthy, never having to work again?

Or maybe you're nearing retirement and can't wait for the time when you have absolutely nothing to do.

Nothing.

Think about it.

MONEY BUYS . . .

"It is neither wealth nor splendor; but tranquillity and occupation which give happiness."

Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826) Third president of the United States.

Good for all of us to remember and none more than those just beginning their careers.

Happiness comes from what we do for a living and how we relax when not working, not the wealth that comes with the job or the things we buy hoping for happiness.

Money buys a lot, just not happiness.

VOCATIONAL HAZARDS

"Look around the inhabited world; how few know their own good, or knowing it, pursue."

John Dryden 

17th century British poet/dramatist/critic

Many of us become whatever comes along first, whatever "pays the bills".

Since we often then spend a lifetime doing whatever that is, shouldn't our first job be doing the best job we can deciding what our job will be?

As difficult as it is important to do.
