Сделай What is work? It is the activity in which one exerts strength or abilities to do something. It is an eff ort, both
physical and mental, to overcome obstacles and achieve objectives or results.
Why do people work? Th ey work for diff erent reasons. One reason is motivation. Motivation takes on a
number of forms. Some are called push motivators. Th ey make people work hard in order to provide for the
family, to buy a house or a car, to give their children a good education or to be able to travel. Some of the strongest motivators in the work environment include the opportunity for personal accomplishment, growth, social
relationships as well as cultural factors. Besides creating all material and spiritual values and producing a means
of existence, work enables people to realize their abilities, to feel useful and signifi cant.
People usually motivate themselves by setting objectives and goals. Each of these techniques adds something personal to each individual. However, some techniques work well with some people but not with the
others, as diff erent people have diff erent motivating factors.
Is it good to work? Yes, when you love what you do. Work should be
something that you want to do and enjoy doing. Our work and the ability
to do it are gift s. Doing our work is so simple if we do it with love and
think of liking what we do. It is easy and, at the same time, interesting.
Why do some people not like to work? Some might have picked a
climb-the-ladder-oriented career and never switched. Others may not
put their heart into work because of the poor compensation, lack of
respect or appreciation from the employer, poor health benefi ts or poor
work-life balance. A third group may become overwhelmed when seeing
the amount of work looming before them. Th ey begin to feel incapable
of completing the task, thus being seized with a fear of failure.
On the whole, it is a privilege to be able to work; to work well and
then be pleased with the results. Work well done is worth being praised.
It gives us wings; it inspires us to work more, to work better and, why
not, to be more enthusiastic about it.
