I love what I do

Image via WikipediaI read a lot. I particularly read a lot about my industry, direct sales. I read information by trainers and those who have achieved what I aim to achieve myself. 
Today, for some reason, it struck me that when I hear other people in my industry talk about how much they love what they do, they often talk about how they love what they "get to do" or what they "don't have to do". 

"I love that I can be home to put my kids on the bus and get them off the bus."

"I love that I don't have to ask my boss for a day off."

"I love that I can work in my PJs."

"I love that I get a free company trip each year."

"I love that I don't have to wake up to an alarm in the morning."

"I love that I can take a nap in the afternoon."

"I love that I make my own schedule."

Those are all great benefits, to be sure. But it got me to thinking that I don't often hear people talking about actually loving what they do do when they are working.

I LOVE what I do. I love when the new product line is released. I love pouring over the pages and picking my favorite items. I love smelling the new scents and taking the sparkly shiny new pieces out of their blue boxes. 
I love becoming friends with my customers as we work together.
I love doing a home party! Hanging out with a room full of women, who are usually drinking wine :) laughing, sharing, connecting.
I love helping women pick out a new look for their home.
I love helping women pick out  the perfect gift for their mother, daughter, sister.
I love helping women start their own business.
I love working with women as they embark on a journey of self discovery and empowerment.
I love watching women become strong, confidant business women.
I love learning from other brilliant, powerful business women.


I love what I do. There are great benefits too, don't get me wrong. 
But why do I do what I do? Because I freaking LOVE it!

What do you love about what you do?
