Passion For Work

Three teachers who teach history in different schools are asked the same question: What is your present job?

First one replies, “I don’t do very much. I just teach history to school children.”

The second teacher thinks a little more deeply and says, “I am in the business of education.”

The third teacher in response to the same question, looks straight in the eyes of the questioner and in an inspired voice says, “I am shaping the destiny of the nation. I teach young minds how they can make history.”

Moral: All three teachers are dealing with same reality — teaching history to school children. Yet the spirit in which they approach their work transforms the mundane reality of their job. So, be passionate about your work and you will then see it transform into effortless action.
