1. What is better than do what you love?

Love what you do. I've applied that, and when I have, I've found myself doing what I love.

We don't always get to be picky about what we have to do. But if we do what we have to do with the trust that it will lead us to a situation in which we are doing what we love, it works out.

That is my experience. Very few people can make a living doing what they would love to be doing. For the rest of us, love what we do.
