The Only Way to Do Great Work is To Love What You Do

Steve Jobs
About This Quote

The only way to do great work is to love what you do. The only way to do great work is to actually love what you do. Not to be lovey-dovey about it or anything, but to truly enjoy the flow of the individual tasks that make up your job. If you truly love your work—and can’t imagine yourself doing anything else—you won’t ever feel like doing something else. And you’ll get more done in less time, because you’ll be happier at the office.
