Are You Doing What You Love?
Somewhere in history, humankind picked up the false thought that we need to work on boring, day-to-day activities that we do not enjoy in order to survive.
We grow up in our programmed lives with the ridiculous idea that we have to go to work to earn money.
Nothing can be further from the truth. We should go to work for satisfaction. You want to spend your days doing what you love.
Doing what you want to do is LIFE! There is no real satisfaction in living if we are compelled to do something that we don’t like to do or that we’re expected to do. It’s as simple as that.
You can do what you want to do; your desire to do it is PROOF that you have within you the power to do it."

See, the idea that we work for money is silly. It’s an old idea that’s been around for a long time, but that doesn’t mean there’s any TRUTH in it. When we created the Chicken Soup for the Soul book series (which went on to sell 100 million copies), it was’t our regular job.? Mark Victor Hansen and I were still doing every day what we loved most. The Chicken Soup idea was an OTHER idea, a SIDE idea, believe it or not.
Bob Proctor discussed the setting up of MULTIPLE sources of income “ you WORK every day doing what you love, but that doesn’t necessarily have to be the big breadwinner. True riches come from setting up multiple sources of income that, quite probably, are side ideas.? Chicken Soup started out as just another source of income for us.
Now, granted, Chicken Soup proved a surprising source of income for us. This happened because we simply were following ALL the constructs that are being laid out in this book. Remember, Wallace Wattles has already taught us that you provide service to earn money. When you increase your service, you earn more money. Our Chicken Soup books have entertained more than 100 million people, but it’s obvious that I wasn’t there with those buyers, selling them their books, or reading the books aloud to their children. In fact I was sleeping when many of these books were being purchased and read. But I earned money on every one of them and I’ll earn money on them for the rest of my life, and my estate will earn money on them, because we found a way to increase our SERVICE by developing a SERIES of Chicken Soup books.
As Wallace Wattles said in the very first chapter of this book, you can only become rich when you expand your service beyond your current presence. And that’s just what we did. The Chicken Soup side idea? proved a beautiful one. It resonated with millions of people in ways we can never possibly know and, as a result, it became ONE source of several multiple sources of income that both Mark Victor Hansen and I enjoy today.
Then, get your head around the most important aspect of this chapter “ DO what you LOVE, not what you HAVE to do. It may not happen over night, but it WILL happen when you make that decision.
The second you’ve finished with this lesson, I encourage you to sit down and make a written commitment that you are establishing your goal towards spending your days doing what you love, and setting up multiple sources of income to create the income stream strategies that so many people from all walks of life and education have employed to become wealthy. Sign that commitment and give it to someone you respect. I guarantee you your opportunities will begin to change immediately.
