Last month I wrote about loving your job and how important it is to have passion for the work that you do. When you enjoy your work, it’s easier to provide great service to your customers. In fact, you don’t even feel like you’re “working” because you’re doing what you love to do.

So, maybe you don’t enjoy your job. Are you actively doing anything about it today? Why not? Why not begin a journey to a new career or a new passion? Don’t make any excuses. You can take just one small step today. I urge you!

If you’re in the Bristol, Pennsylvania or Blackwood, New Jersey area, there is a school called Pennco Tech that offers associate degrees in the health care and technology fields. A school like Pennco Tech is a good place to take classes if you want to focus on a particular line of work. I attended a four-year university, but if I could do it over again, I would have probably gone to a technical school for computer science.

If there’s one industry that is going to need more people in the next few years, it’s going to be the health care industry. With the passing of the new health care bill, there will be an influx of people seeking medical attention. If you have a passion for health care and have a genuine, caring attitude, then this is a field you may want to look into. Heaven only knows that we need people in the health care industry who really want to help others be more healthy. My friend is a nurse and she tells me stories of coworkers who, in essence, are just there for a paycheck.

Think about it. Aren’t you doing a disservice to other people by continuing to do work that you don’t enjoy - especially in the health care field where people’s lives are at stake? Take it from me, when you love what you do, people will flock to you for help or if they need your product or service.
