• You will always be lazy if you don't love what you do.
• These are signs by your body that you should try to change your work.
• Do something meaningful. You can never be motivated to do meaningless things.
• If your work is repetitive and has no flavor, finding meaning and happiness in the job would be very hard.
• No work is more important than life.
• You should do what you love but also not run away from the hard part of your work.
