The majority of the world’s population works in what they have to, either because they studied a career that their parents imposed on them or simply because the situation was difficult and getting money doing “whatever” was the only option, but what if doing what we love can we go even further?
Gary Vaynerchuk, is an entrepreneur, founder of Wine library TV, investor, speaker and web personality. He is currently dedicated to his company VayneMedia; which is responsible for creating digital strategies for the largest companies such as General Electric and PepsiCo. How did he get to be where he is? With patience and passion!
He spent seven years working in the family business, which gave him knowledge and allowed him to earn money to create Wine library TV in 2006, an irreverent and fun webcast talking about wine, which received numerous awards.
Gary asks his conference attendees to look in the mirror and ask themselves: What do I want to do with my life? And regardless of the answer, be convinced that it can be monetized if you work hard.
There are thousands of successful entrepreneurship cases around the world and it is one of the causes that once again leads us to the question: What if we can go even further by doing what we love? ModoEmprendedor brings 4 reasons given by entrepreneurs why we should pursue our dreams.
Reasons why you should work on what you love.
1. Peace of mind.
For Angelo Kinicki, a professor at Arizona State University, a reason to fight for what we want has a particular perspective. For Angelo, the psychological field is fundamental, because by giving a true purpose and meaning to your working life; you will make your well-being and health in better condition.
2. Permanent motivation.
Part of reaching any goal is being motivated by the right reasons, and what could be more right than pursuing our happiness?
Masanari Akai, co-founder and CEO of the Kii company, says that a job that is loved is a job that gives extra motivation to achieve goals and that when they are achieved, the feeling of fulfillment is exceptional.
3. Improvement and continuous learning.
If you are passionate about the job, you are more likely to want to learn every aspect of the business. This not only sets us on the path to success, it also helps us get through the daily journey; says the founder and CEO of Patrice & Associates, Patrice Rice.
4. Pressure to succeed.
Amir Zonori, director of strategy at Zoomph, says that when you do what you love, you’re forced to push yourself. You want to be challenging and competing with yourself to achieve your vision.
Just like Gary and the other entrepreneurs, everyone can achieve their dreams by sticking to their goals and working hard to achieve them.
