Of Dream Jobs

Just yesterday,I was surfing the net,searching for interesting blogs to read as usual.Blogs are interesting, blogs are fun.As I read in Timothy Tiah's blog , I find that dream jobs aren't actually too far away from reality.Just take a look at this well-known personalities.

Timothy Tiah,co-founder of Nuffnang but best known as one of the most creative and successful entrepreneur in Malaysia . ( or soon to be =D)
Kennysia , top blogger in Malaysia.Heck, even my non-blogger friends know his big name.


,and Michael Phelps, who recently won 11 medals and now known as one of the most successful Olympian of all time.

There, and there of course other big names that might be your idols.Now,what do they have in common ?Talent ? Definitely . Creativity ? Absolutely. Passion?Sure do. But one of the major things that they have in common is they all excel in what they are doing now.Take for example,Michael Phelps went from zero to hero as he won a record of 11 GOLD medals with the help of his teammates and himself of course.Now , if you don't call that excellence , then I dunno what other adjectives you can use to describe it.So do others, each attaining success in their own fields ,Kenny being one of the top bloggers now and Timothy being one of the leading man in the blog advertisement community.

I wonder what might actually be the cause of their success.What lies behind their breakthrough story? After reading their blogs ( kennysia and timothy tiah ) , I think I found out the answer.Yes,it is none other than Passion.Passion for turning their dreams into reality.Passion for doing whatever they like to do and Passion for working.I am pretty sure Michael Phelps has passion for swimming too.After all, it is their "dream jobs" we are talking about.

I believe that one would never excel in something that he/she does not have passion in.In contrast, if one were to have great passion in something he/she is doing, then certainly, talents and success will come along.In this materialistic world, everyone needs to work in order to keep surviving.Work to get rich,work to pay debts , work to merely surviving.Such is the pitiful reality of the world.But people tends to forget one reason for working.That is , working for fun.As weird as it may seem, I do think that whenever one works in something he/she truly has interest on, no matter how odd the job is, wealth and fame will eventually come along.

So what if your sons or daughters said something like lets say "I want to study music" while he/she is the top scorer in examinations.Let them do what they want, and eventually they will excel.They could even have fun doing it.That being said, I truly admire those jobs that requires social interactions such as one in Nuffnang offices.All of them are like a big family, all interacting among themselves and happy together.Perhaps this is because all of them are bloggers =D.

So,in conclusion , just find whatever you like to do and GO FOR IT ! Then again, it is easier to be said than to be done.It ain't easy task finding things you like to do and it is even harder to find jobs that actually provide you money for doing the things you like.It demands talents and luck.So,if you are working in a perfect environment that you are happy with everyday, you are one lucky guy/girl!!!Ah.. I wonder how's my dream job would be ?
