Most or many things that happened are not related, we liked to connect them and give them a reasoning. Is that to comfort ourself? e.g. We need to work to prove that we are useful to society. Err. I think I work for that $$$.  Look at it another way. If you are not working, are you a society pest? Almost all my frens thought that we cannot don't work.  If not, we are wasting our lives.

Passion supercedes Hardwork

老子 (laozhi) a well-known figure in ancient Chinese history. He wrote this book on 道德经 (daidejing) explaining the way of life some 2000 years back. He had seen or foretold how human beings should behave or live during our years. Is our society actually moving backwards rather than advancing?  The book explained that we should not work hard or study hard or be hardworking, but rather, we need to have that passion. If you work hard for that salary or $$$, you will not go far. You need to have that passion for whatever you do. With that passion, your skills will be more polished, we should become more efficient and effective in our tasks.  If that job is not what you want or if that subject or topic is not what you wanted to learn, forget it. Do what you like, be passionate.
