the reason why in this World, we need to keep on working to feed and clothe ourselves, to do good works and speak in the name of the Lord constantly and consistently everyday is to draw us towards the ideal value of DILIGENCE and away from SLOTH.
i strongly believe, regardless of what we love to work, be it drawing cartoons or doing math, it will, in some way, improve or contribute to other people's (least another person's) life in the future, thus showing your work in LOVING ONE ANOTHER.
so, starting today and every other day, do what you love, cos' that means that it'll improve another person's life! It'll show your love and care!
for diligence is:
1.constant and earnest effort to accomplish what is undertaken; persistent exertion of body or mind. - dictionary.com
In Roman Catholicism, sloth (latin: accidia, pigritia) is one of the seven deadly sins, and is defined as spiritual apathy or laziness, putting off what God asks you to do, or not doing it at all. Acedia is a Latin word, from Greek akedia, literally meaning "absence of caring". - Wikipedia

The Diligent Warrior does not give in to repeated failures, doubts of man or the undermining environment, but strives until he succeeds. - Lenz
