How To Love The Work You Do
What's the secret to real career success? Even mundane work is great when it's associated with work that you love!
Ever since I started Live It Forward, I get asked many questions regarding life, business, or entrepreneurship, among many other facets. But there are two questions I get asked time and time again, especially related to finding true career success. The first is: How do you stay positive and continue “living it forward” amid setbacks, criticism, and challenges?
The second is: How do you keep going when you're not seeing the results you'd hope to see?
(NOTE: This second question is common once people get past the “honeymoon” season as a speaker or entrepreneur.)
