Those who believe that working on what they are interested in helps people do the work more efficiently might say that it is not necessary to do what they dislike doing. However, contrary to this idea, I strongly believe that people must sometimes, if not all the time, do things that they do not enjoy doing. The rationale behind this is that people are social animals and this fast-paced and comples society that we live in.
To begin with, When it comes to having to perform what people do not like, the fact that people are social animals plays a pivotal role. In a sense, it is true that not all people enjoy being with others and thus, they do not have to behave contrary to their belif. However, even they cannot deny the fact that not a single person in the world can live by oneself. All people have grown up by their parents or other grown-ups. Therefore, even they become adults they need some other sources that help sustain their lives. For example, people need to earn money in order to make their living. If they do not work just because they have no desire to work, it means that they are going to suffer from hunger or live low-quality life. Then they have no choice but to beg other people for food and shelter. If they do not beg others just because they think it is such a shame, they are likely to die soon or later from malnutrition and diseases. In conclusion, people need to do things that they have to do from time to time in order to lead a satisfying life.
Moreover, as far as this fast-changing society is concerned, there is nothing that we can do except for keeping up with the trends that this society offers as soon as possible in order to not to fall behind. From having to read up-to-date news and latest novels to owning pets, there are many things we need to do to have something to talk about with your friends. Suppose that there is a state-of-art invention that just came out on the marcket. Even if you feel that that kind of product is not necessary in your life, you need to take a look at that thing even once to keep up with the trend. If you do not, you would feel very isolated when your friends talk about that product. Furthurmore, if you want to work at the company where everyone is required to wear formal suits, you must wear as everyone else wears even if you hate wearing business suits. If you do not, you are likely to get fired and you would suffer from financial difficulties and mental stress.
To sum up, because we are living in this fast-developing society where many other people migle together, most of the time, we must do what we do not like in order to sustain our lives and not to feel isolated and fall behind the trend. It seem somewhat harsh that we have to do things that we dislike, it may bring us positive in the long run in improving our personality and many others. For these reasons, I strongly believe that even things we do not like, we should never give up but keep trying persistantly for the better future. |
