Why do we work? While there may be some obvious, practical answers to this question, like needing to make money to survive, there are other reasons that people work. These include working: to have stimulation and excitement--to meet new challenges and have variety in your life; for love and affection--to be with colleagues, clients, customers and to provide security and protection for family and friends; and to leave a thumbprint on the world and change individuals, systems, and institutions. For quality life, it is necessary not only to work but to enjoy your work. For physicians considering careers in medical management, the key to success is being truly excited about management activities. If you are heading towards management, you need to view some of the tasks as fun or you probably won't stay with it very long.
我们为什么工作？虽然对于这个问题可能有一些显而易见的实际答案，比如需要赚钱维持生计，但人们工作还有其他原因。这些原因包括：为了获得刺激和兴奋感——迎接新挑战并让生活丰富多彩；为了爱与情感——与同事、客户相处，并为家人和朋友提供保障和保护；以及在世界上留下印记，改变个人、系统和机构。为了高质量的生活，不仅要工作，还要享受工作。对于考虑从事医疗管理职业的医生来说，成功的关键是真正对管理活动感到兴奋。如果你朝着管理方向发展，你需要将一些任务视为有趣的，否则你可能不会坚持太久。
