Don't we all want to feel satisfied after putting our effort on something?. The rewards.
for example, after putting on a lot of effort studying, we do want to get the A's, its a nature law, to get something we have to work on it.
And when we achieve what we wanted, the reward will come and we will be satisfied! simple.
But let us view this in a different perspective, in life.
In the United States Declaration of Independence, there it said:
That all men are by nature equally free and independent, and have certain inherent rights, of which, when they enter into a state of society, they cannot, by any compact, deprive or divest their posterity; namely, the enjoyment of life and liberty, with the means of acquiring and possessing property, and pursuing and obtaining happiness and safety.
Human , only aim for one thing,that is Happyness.
Life and after death
based on Maslow's hierarchy of needs is a theory in psychology, proposed by Abraham Maslow in his 1943 paper A Theory of Human Motivation,[2] which he subsequently extended to include his observations of humans' innate curiosity.
he successfully divided the human needs and in an indirect way, the thing that satisfies us,human. He divided those thing in the pyramid above.
My question is, once the reward is ours, are we truly satisfied??
will we ever?
In my opinion, we will never ever be 100% satisfied.
and the worse part is when we are only satisfied when we get the rewards.
is that happyness? compared to the achieving ,work accumulate 99% of the time.
And we are only allowed 1% of the overall time to be happy??
For example.
If we hate our job, but the pay is good, we in terms to satisfy our need for money would take that job. But do we gain happyness? the only thing we enjoyed is the money or social rank's, nothing more.
If we look at the pyramid, money will fill the 2nd lowest part of it, just above our physiological need. and without enjoying what we do, we will be stuck there without going up the pyramid.
I believe, more satisfaction will be gain if we enjoy the work we do, instead of the rewards,
why? when we enjoy what we do:
- We will be happy doing what we do
- We can't get enough of what we do (we can't wait to do it again)
- Life is less stressful
- Security,when we work the reward will come(100%)
- Time, instead of be happy for 1% due to the rewards, we are happy while putting on the effort
- We will increase our Life quality.
- We won't mind putting the extra effort when it become harder.
Sometimes, our mind are clouded with the BIG reward and forget the small rewards that make
our life better to live everyday.
Being a doctor or a lawyer or gaining the title "the most successful man in the world" doesn't promise eternal happyness.
It's enjoying doing the thing we love the most.
A stranger by the road may look like another person compared to a celebrity or a world leader.
but he may already achieve the thing he want's to achieve.
That is success.
But we still have to aim high.
And believe!

i agree that if we do the job that we love, we'll give more than 100% in it and we don't even mind if it takes away our social life or lunch. and sometimes, even when there is no rewards or the rewards does not seem to match the effort in the work we do, we'll still feel happy and satisfied. it's all in the joy of loving something we love to do. nice entry! :)
