Interest on work is directly coupled with the satisfaction attained from work. Do what we like and like what we do; if someone does his\/her job without any interest then it is like a machine switched on. It is noticeable and many of us know that; all findings and innovations are from the people driven by their passion. They could get the satisfaction from their work. However, majority of the people run normal life and their first preference is to have basic salary to run daily life. But, when life grows, they realize that happiness is more important so, they run from east to west to find happiness. People who have no interest in their job often are depressive and I believe that the percentage of depression increases every year. Here comes the importance of having happiness at work.<\/p>\n<p>In the story by Thomas Carlyle from Light from Many Lamps, \u201cA man must get his happiness out of his work\u201d (pg.no 134) is true in my concept too. This writing unfolds the mentality of majority of the people, as they spend notable hours at their work on daily basis. If the job is not interesting, they carry their unhappiness or tension at work towards home and it will reflect as a negative impact at home atmosphere. End of the day, everyone must come back home and should have peace of mind. Therefore, the tensions at work should not be carried forward. Infact, someone cannot be a good leader without any interest towards his job. Interest towards job creates passion, and skilful leaders are driven by this passion. Thomas Carlyle, himself is a good example for his statement \u201cBlessed is he who has found his work\u2019\u2019 (pg.no 135) as he had to give up many opportunities until he found a work which suits and satisfies him- writing. In our daily life we find many people searching for new opportunities until they get a work which gives ultimate job satisfaction.<\/p>\n<p>Being a nurse, I enjoy the job satisfaction because it was completely my discretion to opt this field since I wanted to do what I love. However, the above statement by Thomas Carlyle has more significance as I personally know many people who have selected this field by looking other aspects, their job becomes a headache and are not able to handle the pressure created by this dissatisfaction. Therefore, it\u2019s our own decision to dream for a fruitful life for that we should know our likes and dislikes and choose the right actions and implement so that it leads the destiny to a happiest one. But I wonder, is this possible for everyone to go for it in this highly competitive life?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Reference<br \/>\n<\/strong>Watson, L.E. (1951).\u00a0Light from Many Lamps.
