Do you love your job?

For the benefit of those who can't answer this question, I've come up with a simple technique. Ask yourself, if you won a huge amount of money from the lottery, say $100 million, would you quit your job? Would you stop what you're doing? If you answer "no", congratulations! You're in a job/occupation that you love and that is rare. I got the idea for this technique when I heard the story of a lottery winner in the United States. He was working at a restaurant (I think he was a cook). He won a lot of money but to the surprise of many, he stayed on with his job. I admired him for that because most people I have encountered never stop complaining about their jobs. It really enlightened me on some career issues that I was having. It has helped influence some major decisions that I've made, and the result has been great. Now I'm pursuing my true passion and I shall never retire!
