Work

Hey, a four letter word, how appropriate! Who likes to work? Not me. I’d rather be doing whatever I want to do every day! If I wanted to go hunting with my younger brother Steve, tear apart computer (and attempt to put it back together) with my older brother Billy or just play with my son Shane in his fort (a cardboard box)… I want that freedom! Can I do that? Hell no. I’ve got to work like most everyone else, no rest for this guy. Actually, I plan on ‘resting’ when I retire here in about 5 years. My son will be 12 and I want to spend as much time with him as I can.

Like I mentioned in the last chapter, turning what you enjoy doing into your living is the best way to enjoy life! But don’t kid yourself when you think about what you really want to do; come up with a few things. Could you handle doing them for a long period of time? Would you get bored after awhile? Is it something that you could get paid to do? There are a lot of things that you can do and get paid for (Yes, you can do that and I know that it’s fun but keep in mind that it is illegal and many people get arrested for that — so get your mind out of the gutter!)

I’ll give you a couple of examples for myself. 1. Doing the outdoor stuff; own a lodge. 2. Upgrading computers; own a computer/software shop. 3. Being a rock star; own a recording studio. 4. Being an actor; kill all other male actors and they’d have to choose me!
