Success and rewards

[Invincible 2,091]

How does anyone feel about putting effort into their work? I ask because very recently iv'e come to see just how happy i am with the fruits of my labor. 

 

Some people ask me why bother so much, why put effort into everything i do. But i don't feel that way, I find that i enjoy the raw satisfaction of putting a 100% into something (be it studying, work, or your personal life) and see your efforts rewarded.

 

It's something trivial and yet I felt it was worth sharing. What do you guys think? Do you like putting work into the things you do, or do you feel like lazing out here and there?

I always try to do a good job in anything I do, but things I like, and am passionate about, I put a level above the rest in terms of effort.

Any task that I am given, I always feel the need to give it my all. I will never be satisfied knowing that I did not complete my task with 100% of my effort. I am a strong believer that what you put in is what you deserve. If you perform a task half-heartedly, don't expect something amazing to come out of it.

 

For example, if you're practicing a song on the piano with minimal effort, don't expect to be able play the entire piece with 0 mistakes after 10 minutes. But if you really put your mind to it and practice everyday giving it your all, don't be surprised if you can play the song effortlessly after a couple of weeks. Hard work and determination are the keys to success my friend  -_-.

To be honest, I'm not that driven by success and rewards. I guess it's just because I'm going through depression right now.
