What is the Secret of Job Contentment?

Most men who do like their jobs usually like the thrill of the deal or the satisfaction of beginning and completing the project. We are made to enjoy the thrill-to feel the pleasure in our work. Unfortunately that is not the whole purpose of work and many of us are tempted to become "deal junkies"-to live to please ourselves, going from one deal fix to the next in search of contentment.

I love doing what I am doing becouse it gives me the opportunity to express my emotions/feelings in another way than the regular. I guess I am one of the persons who do their job becouse they love the process(of doing it) more than the final result(money). It gives me a lot of pleasure to see how something is "born" under my hands.I find pleasure in giving something beautiful to the world.I find pleasure when other people are indetifying themselves in my final work.

You are so right with that 'On to the Next Deal Fix.' It's as if we have lost the desire to taking pride in what we do. It's turned into - get ur done! get ur done! If only we lived in a world without money we might be working from the heart and soul of it all.
