Passion for Work!

Last Friday, went to Casablanca to view a place done up by one of our shortlisted ID. Although he only showed us the living, dining and master bedroom, his passion for his work was evident. Perhaps it can be attributed to him wanting to impress upon us. Perhaps he's proud of his work (the owner did comment that he's talking to us more like a lecturer than a sales person). In any case, I was fascinated. Partly by his content. But more so by the perceived enthusiasm radiating from him in his work.

I ask myself: "Whether I can be as passionate about my work as him?" Hmm, actually I cannot really answer that. Because there are things that I don't like @ work. But I also realized that the more I get hung up about those things, the more it affects me and my physical health. And it is not worth to do so!

We got news that one of the manager resigned. My colleague, who has been helping this particular manager to rebuild the team was disappointed hearing that. Initially, I thought that it is because of the resignation per se. But I was wrong because my colleague was more concerned about rebuilding the team and probably how things will go from now on. And that striked me in the same way as how our shortlisted ID went about in his work.

Am I doing all I can to make a difference? Nevermind that there are many things that I possibly do not like or wish to change about the workplace. Ultimately, I have to realize that some things are just beyond me. And it does more harm than good when I continue to ponder over them and get upset by them. So, the choice is clear! The question is applying it in reality despite all the dislikes @ work!
