I've known too many people who secretly hated what they do for a living. I suppose it's fine if you already have a beautiful wife/children/life outside work to compensate, but hating your work is not the best way to begin your career.

When I wrote this it was more directed at people who feel a little bit lost, and are wondering why they haven't found that one "thing" that they're passionate about. It's about telling them that they don't have to search so hard for it because it's probably right in front of them right now.
I think people that hate what they do are in a slightly different (though similar boat). Sometimes hating what you do can actually crystallize exactly what it is you love (because you can't do it as much anymore) and so I feel like the problem that those people face is more making the leap to spend time doing what you love even if it means taking more risk.
Thanks for sharing - I really agree with your point.
The career we chose is also such an important choice that can change if we hate other aspects of our daily lives. By choosing a career or business that we don't "hate" it can help us all construct a stronger and more positive way to find what we love and make those things the primary things in our life.
