Free will

Do we have free will?
If we do, how does god influence our life.
If we don't, why does god gives us an illusion of having free will if he doesn't want to give us one.

Love work

Confucius said "Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life". But, how to love the work you do. Here are ten pointers that helps you love your work.

1. Understand the work. Try to understand the broad picture and go deeper.
2. Be the key person of the project. A fifth wheel in a project will never love the job.
3. Define personal goals. Celebrate mentally after each personal goal is reached. This gives the satisfaction and motivate you to do the next goal.
4. Assume characterizations for each entity of the task based on their behaviour. These characterizations makes it interesting to work with.
5. Split the task into smaller ones and attack.
6. Take frequest breaks. A fresh mind enjoys problem solving than a tired mind.
7. Draw the mental picture first. Visualize mentally that it is already done. This will help you a great deal as far the confidence goes and helps you work backwards towards the problem.
8. Perfectionism: Perfect the current task 100%. That will help you love your task. It gives you a great fulfillment once it is completed and consumed.
9. Assume ownership: For the task or project you do, you assume you are the owner and you are not doing it for the company or your boss. This gives more involvement.
10. Prioritize your tasks. This helps you in understanding the importance of each task and increses your likeness for the task.
11. Be proactive.
12. Do the right thing.
