Pleasure is the key to a great Life

Why is it that we have been programmed from birth that with out PAIN there is no GAIN.

But think for a minute!

"How much could you and would you achieve if you felt pleasure in the things you do on an every day basis."

Take for example :

You work at a job you are not crazy about. So you spend countless minutes and hours thinking and talking about how much you hate it.

Let's not talk along the normal lines that people talk about in this kind of situation - like "find a job you like". We all know that sometimes that is not possible.

So why not attached some pleasure to this job you hate. Like what you might say ok.

How about one of these in addition to the fact that this job keeps a roof over your head.

  • This job pays for the little pleasures in life like getting you nails done.
  • This job allows you to meet some very interesting people.
  • This job pays for the vacation you take .
  • This job pays for the shopping sprees you are so fond of.

The key here is to dwell on and think about the pleasures that this job at the end of a day, a week, a month, and/or a year allows you to enjoy.

You might fine that in looking at it this way the day will go faster and you will be more productive, because you have given yourself some pleasure to be derived from doing this job.

Now this is how I see it, I would like to know, how you see it, what you think about it.
