Have you any enthusiasm for life?
Have you any special interest in anything?
These comments are usually from the person who is employed by someone else. The person who lets other people do his thinking for him. He is a routinist. It is no wonder that he hates his job and finds his existence boring.
When a person has nothing exciting to live for and has no thought or creative outlet, the rut that he is in grows deeper.
Wake up and realize the possibilities of what you can achieve.
What does life mean to you?
If you do not think life hold much hope for you, can you make life a little bit better for others?
That thought alone should support a renewed hope in life.
As regards your work, try to dig deep into the subject that you are interested in. Your work will become interesting if you only open your eyes to the underlying principles, problems, methods, and relationships to other interesting aspects of life.
It is in learning that we find the secret of creating and developing interests.
The trouble with most of us is that we stop consciously learning when we leave school.
Knowledge is the mother of interest and if we begin to train our minds and hands, then interest will surely spring up.
There are very few examples of work when there is not something to be learnt.
An example of this could be the man that monotonously cuts marble for tombstones. He decided to take up the subject of geology and find out about the history of the rocks, which he handled. He learnt the about the different kinds of marble and from where they came from. He also began to learn about the different types of sculpture and design from earliest times to the present. This task had opened up a marvellous new world for him.
Who knows where an interest or renewed area of learning could take you!
Creativity, life, interest, learning, mind, enthusiasm...
