There can be no joy of life without joy of work - St. Thomas Aquinas For us to be happy in our work our jobs need: What is your life purpose? What is your personal mission in life? It is not enough if you are busy. The question is, What are you busy about? Henry David Thoreau I am doing work which is worth doing. It would still be worth doing if nobody paid for it. But as I have no private means, and need to be fed and housed and clothed, I must be paid while I do - C.S Lewis Satisfaction is not getting what you want, but wanting what you already have. Normal is getting dressed in clothes that you buy for work, driving through traffic in a car that you are still paying for, in order to get to the job that you need so you can pay for the clothes, car, and the house that you leave empty all day in order to afford to live in it. - Ellen Goodman, Columnist Those who borrow are slaves of moneylenders. - Proverbs 22:7 For us to be happy in our work our jobs need: Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving. - Colossians 3:23-24
