Successful businesspeople are great sources of advice and tips. It’s typically in the category of too-obvious-to-mention advice, but you know that when several successful entrepreneurs all say the same thing it’s likely something worth noting.This is the most frequently offered piece of advice, from people as varied as Oprah Winfrey and Warren Buffet, suggesting it should probably be top-of-mind when selecting a career or business.For instance, Oprah Winfrey says: “You know you are on the road to success if you would do your job and not be paid for it.” Warren Buffet puts it only slightly differently: “Follow your passion. I always tell college students to take the job that you would take if you were independently wealthy. You’re going to do well at it.”
Steve Jobs put it as follows: “The only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle. As with all matters of the heart, you’ll know when you find it.”If you don’t enjoy what you’re doing, it’s going to be safe to assume that fact will be reflected in the success of your business – or lack of it. So this is probably simple advice worth heeding – do something you enjoy!
