Is it more important to work at a job that pays well or one that makes you happy?

★ 工作的動機應該是為求高薪?還是為了讓自己樂在其中?二者究竟熟重熟輕? ★

Every day millions of people wake up, get dressed and go to work. For some, time spent on a project at work is the highlight of their day, but for others, the happiness doesn’t come until payday. The average worker spends about 2,140 hours a year at work. Should all this time spent working bring joy to the soul or should it just be endured for the benefits the money brings?

每天，數(shù)以百萬計的人們紛紛從睡夢中甦醒、著裝，然后去上班。對其中一些人來說，花時間投入公司的企劃案，是他們生活中的重頭大戲，但對其他人來說，也許一直要等到發(fā)薪日當天，快樂才姍姍來遲。上班族平均每年工時約為兩千一百四十小時左右。我們既然花這麼長的時間來工作，那麼大家應該讓自己在工作時心靈裡充滿了喜悅，還是該看在薪水的份上而咬牙忍耐下去呢?
