"If you're going to be at a job environment, you should love it. You shouldn't do it just for money. You should do it because you love it. And the money comes naturally"

About this Quote

Debbi Fields emphasizes the importance of passion and personal fulfillment in the workplace over financial motivation. She suggests that enjoying one's job environment is essential to a meaningful and satisfying career. When a person chooses work primarily driven by love or genuine interest, they are more likely to thrive, innovate, and persevere, even during challenging times. The focus shifts from merely earning a paycheck to finding joy, creativity, and purpose in daily tasks.

People often approach their career decisions based on financial incentives, prioritizing salary over personal satisfaction. However, this mindset can lead to dissatisfaction, burnout, or a sense of emptiness over time. Doing a job solely for monetary gain may secure material comfort, but it does little to nurture long-term engagement or emotional wellbeing. Fields argues that when someone follows their passion, excellence and fulfillment naturally follow. Employers and customers tend to notice enthusiasm and dedication, which can lead to better opportunities, promotions, and professional growth.

By advocating for love-driven work, Fields encourages individuals to reflect on what genuinely excites or motivates them. Pursuing a field or position that resonates with one's values and interests increases the likelihood of achieving mastery and ongoing growth. Consistent effort driven by passion also attracts positive recognition and can result in increased earnings as a natural byproduct of high performance.

Her perspective also challenges the very nature of success. Rather than equating wealth with achievement, she places intrinsic satisfaction and love at the core. Money, in this view, is not the end goal but rather an organic outcome of passionate and committed work. Authenticity becomes central — people who are engaged and fulfilled are magnetic, inspire trust, and foster strong relationships.

Ultimately, Fields implies that a career grounded in love not only benefits the individual but also contributes positively to organizational culture, customer experience, and broader society, making work not just a means to an end, but a meaningful journey.
