Most of us feel differently about the things we need to do versus the things we want to do, drawing a hard line between work and leisure. In this quote, author Richard Bach attempts to blur that line. In his 1977 book “Illusions,” Bach suggests a subtle but powerful trick of mind over matter when it comes to work, motivating ourselves from a place of genuine interest or purpose. The tasks may still not be fun, but if the effort feels driven from within rather than imposed by external forces, that shift in perspective could make all the difference.
