The key is to follow your passion.

My youngest daughter landed a job teaching second grade this year. It’s the perfect job for her since she loves young children and she loves to teach. For the past two weeks, she has been working 12 hour days getting her classroom ready for the school year to start. All the while she has a smile on her face because she absolutely loves what she’s doing and doing it makes her happy.  It’s the same with my wife. She often puts in 12 hour days at the foster care and adoption agency where she works, but when she comes home at 10:00 in the evening, she’s smiling and telling me what a great day she’s had. Why? Because she’s doing what she loves to do. On the other hand, people who spend their work days doing things they don’t love often come home tired, worn out and crabby. If this describes you, you might consider looking around for something you do love doing.  The key is to follow your passion.  Forbes.com provides a step by step process on how to pinpoint exactly what your passion is.
