This class made me question the connection between work and life???

Is work what we do every day to pay our bills?

Or can work can be fun too?

One definition of work is…

WORK  (WÛRK) N.

1. PHYSICAL OR MENTAL EFFORT OR ACTIVITY DIRECTED TOWARD THE

PRODUCTION OR ACCOMPLISHMENT OF SOMETHING.*

It sounds like the goal of working is to achieve something and hopefully you get

satisfaction from completing whatever you are working on!#!

So maybe the key is working at or on something you enjoy so work doesn’t feel like

work!
