Hugh MacLeod of Gapingvoid dropped something profound in today’s email. Reposting it here for remembrance.

When you love what you do, the world can tell.

The world wants to hear more.

The world wants to open doors for you.

The world wants to give you their business.

Because when you love what you do, when you love your customers, clients, patients, you’ve got what everybody wants.

And everybody wants what you got.

They can’t help it.

So we repeat, if you want to be successful, stop trying to win the lottery, stop trying to be the next Steve Jobs, Mick Jagger or Michael Jordan.

Just find something you love to do, and excel at it.

Because that’s how most really successful people got there.
