Another pointer is to have insatiable curiosity in everything that you do instead of thinking of work as just a job. Be your own judge of your quality of work instead of relying on others and you will be pleasantly surprised. Being able to overcome great challenges (especially ones that have been thought as impossible by others) is the long-lasting and purest form of happiness that money can never bring.

I definitely agree with the sentiment but it's difficult to practice without freedom. No one can maintain a sense of wonderment while spending 12 hours a day doing something they hate, for someone they hate, and being exhausted the rest of the time.
