A friend shared this quote with me:
Work like you don't need the money
dance like no one is watching
sing like no one is listening

That's why it's important to follow your dreams and find a job or career that you love. And, if it's not a job that you love, I hope you take the time to find a position that you, at least, like. It's also important to find balance in our lives so, that we have time to work, time to play, and time to make sure our life is as fulfilling as it can be.
