Different people have different hobbies like dancing, singing, sports etc etc. I guess blogging is not such a bad hobby. Afterall, it is more of expressing your thought than anything else.

As @vimoh said, it’s about enjoying what you do.

I am a new blogger, and completely subscribe to the fact that people think if not speak out loud …about bloggers having nothing else to do in life.

The trouble is I feel guilty deep within, coz i am in the “zone” right now….I see words like matrix and have this urge to pen it down. I also know I ll hit a block someday when nothing will come out right…but hey,we’ll cross the bridge when we get there…for now have to get rid of the guiltoblogophobia. !

Cheers
Lets keep the blog flag flying.

Regarding the post though, many people live under the assumption that work (real work, the sort you do to make a living) has to be painful. Just like studying is “supposed” to be hard. I know one kid who got whacked by his mom because he was smiling at something in a textbook. Enjoyment, people seem to believe, is the exact opposite of what people doing quality work should experience. They should sweat and cry out in pain and complain and whine about work. That is when their effort is given the the credence it deserves.

In real life however, that is completely wrong. Work is hard, but only if you are a mule drawing a cart. Anyone who ever did anything worth doing, certainly didn’t do so while crying out in pain. Success comes out of enjoyment. Enjoyment comes out of doing what you enjoy. Simple.
