Free Printable: Love Your Work

I hope everyone is having a lovely summer! It’s just gorgeous here in the PNW, no rain at all. OH. YEAH. It’s like I live in a normal, dry, summery place.

The second installment of GSW’s free printables seems so simple. Three little words. Love Your Work. Except truly loving your work isn’t so simple, particularly if you might feel like what you’re doing now is so NOT what you love.

We can look at this in two ways:

1. You love your work–the work you’re doing right now. It’s fulfilling and amazing and awesome. Maybe it’s graphic design, or accounting, or landscaping, or whatever. Yay, buddy! This is wonderful. You made it! You’re there, in that beautiful sweet spot. Sure, days might tough here and there, but it’s minor because you love what you do. This little mantra could serve as a sweet reminder. Things could be worse–see #2.

2. You hate your job. Well, you know what? Chances are, that’s not your work. Ahhhhh, what? Yes, there’s a difference there. If you’re in a spot where you’re not happy with what you’re doing, it’s most likely serving one purpose and one purpose only–it’s a means to an end, a way to pay the bills. The key thing to consider is that you are probably doing something on the side that makes you super happy. That might even make money.  That you absolutely love to do. THIS is your work and it should be a number one priority. These three little words, love your work, can serve as a reminder to keep hustling and making that work that you adore number one.

So, whatever your work is, practice gratitude, keep hustling, or keep searching for it. Love your work.

This printable is 8″x8″ and it looks great in a square IKEA frame. Enjoy! And check out the Free Gems page for more goodies!
