The terrain is very bumpy and muddy as the clay soil sticks to the tires of the vehicle while the four-wheel drive keeps failing to engage. 

Shortly after, I spot some Good Samaritans who then offer me help. They help push the vehicle, which moves for a few metres but gets stuck in the mud again. The mud seems too thick to navigate through, and I am slowly getting tired. 

A sweat breaks through, and my eyes swell up with tears. “Why did I start off on this journey even when the weather showed cloud cover? My four-wheel drive gave me the confidence to embark on the journey to my country farm, and now it’s failing me. The tires on my vehicle keep skidding off and I start to lose my bearings. I am alone and it’s getting dark.” The more I try to engage my vehicle in motion, the more I fail dismally. I question my driving skills and my choice of vehicles. 

Despite being taken for a full service before my journey, my vehicle seems to be getting worse. My driving experience is selectively memorable; I have to drive in low gear, holding the steering wheel tightly like my life depended on it. At times the sparkle of having a vehicle fades away. The vehicle is life, the vehicle is love, and the vehicle is friendship. 

I suddenly hear a tap on my window screen. I open my eyes and realise that my farm is near yet so far as I have been stuck on the muddy clay. I hope your love for family, social, and friendship is not stuck in the mud, and the four-wheel drive will engage to drive through. The rainbow is fading away from the skies. I guess it will not stop raining soon, and the terrain will be more difficult to navigate through on my own. Another teardrop drops through, and my throat swells up. Is it the type of vehicle? Is it my driving skills? On a rainy, muddy day.

Keep smiling.

Finding joy and fulfilment in what we do is essential for a fulfilling life. When we feel great about our

work, it impacts our overall well-being and radiates positivity to those around us. Here’s how you can

explore your passion, embrace your unique talents, and find deep satisfaction in the activities that

occupy their time.

 

1. Identify your passions

To feel great about what you do, it's important to identify your passions. Reflect on the activities that

ignite a spark within you and bring you joy. Explore different hobbies, interests, and potential career

paths. Pay attention to the moments when time flies and you lose yourself in the flow. These are often

indicators of your passions. Remember, it's never too late to discover and pursue what truly excites you.

 

 

2. Find something that aligns with your values

Feeling great about what you do goes beyond the surface level of enjoyment. It involves aligning your

work with your core values. Identify the principles that matter most to you and seek opportunities that

allow you to express and embody them. When your work aligns with your values, it creates a sense of

purpose and fulfilment that transcends monetary rewards. It allows you to make a meaningful impact

and brings a deep sense of satisfaction.

 

 

3. Embrace growth and learning

Continuous growth and learning are vital for feeling great about what you do. Embrace new challenges

and opportunities that push you out of your comfort zone. Expand your skill set and knowledge through

courses, workshops, or even by seeking mentorship. The more you invest in your personal and

professional development, the more competent and confident you will feel in your chosen endeavours.

Embracing growth not only enhances your abilities but also fuels passion and excitement for what you

do.

 

 

4. Celebrate milestones and achievements

Taking time to celebrate milestones and achievements is crucial for feeling great about what you do.

Acknowledge your progress and give yourself credit for your hard work and dedication. Celebrating

achievements, no matter how small, boosts motivation, confidence, and overall satisfaction. It reminds

you of the value you bring and encourages you to continue striving for excellence in your chosen field.

 

Feeling great about what you do is a journey of self-discovery, aligning with your values, and embracing

growth. By identifying your passions, aligning your work with your values, continuously learning, and

celebrating milestones, you can create a fulfilling and meaningful career that brings you joy, satisfaction,

and a deep sense of purpose. Embrace your unique path and find the greatness in what you do. Till next

time, keep smiling!
