DON’T DO WHAT YOU LOVE. LEARN TO LOVE WHAT YOU DO. It seems that one of the most important factors in career contentment is simply experience. In a job satisfaction survey of college administrative assistants--work traditionally considered repetitive or “boring”--a third of respondents considered their position a “job,” merely a way to pay the bills. Another third deemed it a “career,” or a path towards something better. The final third, though--incidentally, also those who’d spent the most time doing this type of work--considered it their calling or an integral part of their life and identity. The takeaway: Be patient. Passion comes with mastery and time. BY SEBASTIAN KLEIN
