Pray and Work. Working dignifies your spirit. Or so they say. It is not bad as a mantra, but a review of this postulate does not seem inappropriate. If I ask, What do you work for? "For the money, of course” Many will say. Others, more fortunate ones, will add: “for personal fulfillment, to be useful to society, by vocation, to contribute to progress and so and so”. Well, let's take a look at the guts of such claims.
If we understand that contribution to progress, society, researching vocations, teaching, studying, are things that in any case you could do equally and without any further obligation, for free, then the only reason left to work for is necessarily... for the money. Let's be honest. It should be no shame. True, if you are also rewarded in other ways the better, more interesting and enriching will the hours you invest. But those who say they do their work only by their willingness to serve (like many politicians), what foolishness! So is everyone else, in our work, we have no desire to give service? Some serve a community, others to a company and its shareholders and customers, but we all do it at the end of the day for a fee. The difference in any case is who we choose to serve. Of course, willingly to do it well.
