  1. It is important to not complain and just do the work. While doing tasks that involves your interests, in reality, it causes the person to either work until they feel satisfied or slack off and procrastinate until the last second. Instead, by working on a project that is semi interesting to you, you can start to develop more skills and experience to help shape you into a better person and get a better job.

  2. An anonymous person claimed, "The secret of life is not to do what you like but to like what you do." This really points out the significance that life isn't all about you and you have to realize that the things you do may not be your choice but you still have to learn to enjoy it. This brings out that you have to have a good attitude about all the different things that you choose to do throughout your life, from being a garbage man to being a billionaire, but who wouldn't like being that!

  3. A wise person once gave this advice "The secret of life is not to do what you like but to like what you do." The situations that present themselves in life will not always be peachies and cream and can not always be pushed aside either, but they are neccessary to survive and to support yourself and your family. Most do not have the luxury of recieving a full choice of what they can do with certain circumstanses and are not just handed the perfect oppurtunities, instead it takes adjustments to learn to be content with what you do recieve and what you earn through your hard work. With effort and time it is possible to grow to love what you are achieving on your journey through life and how you overcame the tough realities that come with that journey.

  4. An anonymous person once claimed, "The secret of life is not to do what you like but to like what you do." In life we will lose and gain many things, but we have to see the best in whatever we have. Happy people don't have everything they wished for, but they are able to look at what they have and realize how great it is. Comparing ourseleves with other people and wishing to have everything will eventually bring us emptitiness and regret, but loving who we are and our situations will make us happy in the end.

  5. An anonymous person once asserted, "the secret of life is not to do what you like but to like what you do." Through this he claims that in life we won't always come across situations that are appealing to us, so we have to learn to love what we come across in life. You wouldnt really be achieving anything if all you did was what you already liked, a bigger accomplishment is doing something you didn't like, but you eventually grew to love it.

  6. Work is almost inevitable in life and many tell us to find a job we enjoy. However, too many people misunderstand this saying and pursue activities that no one is willing to pay for. A wise person clarifies this old statement by explaining, "the secret of life is not to do what you like but to like what you do." In this way, we must learn to enjoy the work of the day so that we can be happy and live life to it's fullest.

  7. An anonymous writer assures, "The secret to life is not to do what you like but to like what you do." In this, the writer wants you to understand that you can never learn anything new if you only do things you already know how to do. They believe that in everything you do, you should make the best it and try to enjoy it.

  8. Someone once claimed that,"The secret of life is not to do what you like but to like what you do." Many times in life we are going to be asked to do certain tasks that we dont like or that we dont excel in. The key is to not complain and make the best out of the situation. When we do things with a willing heart then it is appreciated even more and regardless of the outcome it brings satisfaction to know that you put in your best effort.

  9. Sorry I misunderstood the quote before, i thought it said something else :/

    An unknown individual expressed, "The secret to life is not to do what you like but to like what you do." Through this statement, the author wants others to know that everything you do, you should take pride in it and try your best. Not everything is going to go your way, so instead of always trying to find that 'perfect' thing you like to do, you should execute everything with the best of your abilities. If you have a job but hate it, then you'll be miserable, but if you take a passion for that occupation, then you will be successful, no matter what. And to succeed, that is the biggest secret in life.

  10. A random person once claimed, "The secret of life is not to do what you like but to like what you do." I believe this means that in order to fulfill your purpose in life, it is necessary to find something, a career or hobby, that is enjoyable-not just something to fill in the empty space. However, don't get caught up doing something that is fun yet unproductive.

  11. An anonymous writer once said, "The secret of life is not to do what you like but to like what you do." Not everyone knows the meaning of apppreciation, appreciate what you do best don't focus on what you can't do and let that interfere with your success. Many could do the same thing but the point is not do be able to do what everyone is doing, it's about standing out of the crowd not blending in. One should be happy of what they have and be thankful for it. Do something because you have a passion to do so.

  12. Does everyone end up doing exactly what they want to do? Yes some lucky individuals live out their dreams but others have to do what's best for themselves or their families. Like one wise anonymous speaker once said, "The secret of life is not to do what you like but to like what you do". If someone spends their whole life complaining about how much they hate their job they aren't going to be happy but if they focus less on the hate for their job and more on the good things that they have they can live a happier and more full life.

  13. A wise anonymous person once said, "The secret of life is not to do what you like but to like what you do." Going on doing as you please may be your desire, but you will not fullfill life's aspiration without doing what you enjoy everyday. In order to find out your purpose in life, you must progress and go above and beyond. Find out who you are.

  15. An interesting author one expressed "The secret of life is not to do what you like but to like what you do." The point that is to come of this passage is that people who hate their jobs should not express their hatred but instead insist to their conscious mind that they take pleasure in said job. Although we do not always get to where we want to go, we need to enforce ourselves to be content with where we are at to survive this crazy world.


    P.S First of all, I think I'm turning into more of a Caityn Karver then Jamie #2! I think I may have two analysises(sp?) in here but I think they both might be strong.
    P.S.S. I hope I am not wrong! LOL!
    P.S.S.S 3rd Period is awesome!

  16. If you don't like what you do, how can you be successful in life? An unknown individual expresses, "The secret of life is not to do what you like but to like what you do." Life isn't always about getting things your way. So instead, people should try looking at the positive sides of a bad situation. You have to think of success instead of failure because the end result will be favorable to you.

  17. An anonymous author once emphasized, "The secret of life is not to do what you like but to like what you do," expressing that enjoying what you do is what will help you advance in life. If you were to do what you like, it might be fun for a while, but eventually it will get old, but if you like what you do you will always benefit from it and will most likely end up succeeding in whatever it is you like doing.

    Btw, this is Quintin

  19. An anonymous person once said, "The secret to life is not to do what you like but to like what you do." You should always be happy with what you have and what you do. If you try to accomplish something that you know you'd like, you might just end up having a bigger struggle in the process of doing it. Will it all be worth it? Maybe. But to like what you do will always be something to enjoy.

  20. A quote stated, "The secret to life is not to do what you like but to like what you do." If you only do what you like in life then you will have a hard time trying to finish your tasks. So it's better to try to like what you do because that way you wouldn't complaint or whine about how you hate doing something and at the end failed at doing it.

  21. An anonymous person was advised, "The secret to life is not to do what you like but to like what you do." In life, people may be divided into two separate groups, optimists and pessimists. We all face struggles or tasks in life and it's how you deal with it which will make life either much better or much worse. If you look at it at the optimistic point of view then life would be much better because they will try to to look at the world as a cup half full rather than half empty like a pessimist would. This then shows that optimists will enjoy all their tasks no matter if it is something they generally dislike because of their mentality, unlike pessimists who would rather just complain and make no progress in life when faced with tasks they dislike.

  22. Anonymous onced believed that “The secret of life is not to do what you like but to like what you do.” You shouldn’t do things for selfish reasons, there should be heart and love behind it and with everything you do, you should give it everything you’ve got. Whatever the task, you should do things for others, rather than for yourself.

  23. An anonymous writer once wrote, “The secret of life is not to do what you like but to like what you do”. Life is not fair but you have to live it. Although we believe life can be a fairytale, bumps are expected. If you are in a tough situation you must look on the bright side. We must come to accept what life brings towards us.

  24. An unamed wise person once made the point that, " The secret to life is not to do what you like but to like what you do." through this statement they emphasize the point that you don't have to do something like, you just have to learn to enjoy what you're doing. Everything in life isn't enjoyable but if you learn to enjoy the things you do instead of letting them stay the way it is then life gets easier.
