Dear forum mates, in English, the work work means a variety of thing, like moving gradually, doing a task, making effort or making results.
What does working mean for you? What is the most essential part of the work? Thank you in advance!
For me, working is about results - it is the most convenient way to measure what has been done. That is the most essential part of work - if you have no results, you are not working.
However, working is also about making effort, and using energy to do the task. But, the effort does not have to be overtension. I can also do it in a relaxed manner. This said, the work is also about managing myself while I work, to optimize my effort to the task at hand. So, I would say managing is the second most essential part of work.   _________________ "As you think, so shall you become." - Bruce Lee

I think, work is the continuous (focused) process of doing something.
Results come from any actions, we just treat it as something we like or dislike.   _________________ Вячеслав Мащенко   |

Thank you and nice to meet you vmashchenko!
I think any change is a result of actions, not just work. When you work toward something, you need to have a plan to get those results, I think.   _________________ "As you think, so shall you become." - Bruce Lee

Work is a process to reach the results in task we are given or have given to our selfs.
Work is something we should be proud of, even though it doesn't have to be anything big to be valued.   _________________ "Having 2 ears and one tongue means we should listen twice as much as we speak."

Nicely said Ville-Pekka. Where does the value of work come then?
I value my work when I know I have used all my efforts to it. The more I give, the more I gain.   _________________ "As you think, so shall you become." - Bruce Lee

Indeed. In Buddhism, they say results are already there, when ever you do something. I think in the doing we are already getting the results, even though sometimes they are not seen.
Or what do you think, forum participants?   _________________ "As you think, so shall you become." - Bruce Lee
