027 People should sometimes do things that they do not enjoy doing?

Freedom is one of the key words of our time. In most situations, people have the rights to do things that they do enjoy doing, from reading to mountain climbing, from swimming to singing. However, people should sometimes do things that they do not enjoy doing for the survival of an individual, for the interest of a collective, and for the responsibility of everyone as a member of our society. The following discussion will substantiate my view.

The first plain truth, I am presenting here, is that people haves to do things that they do not like doing just because they have to make a living. With the science and technology pervading literally every aspect of our living and bringing greater intellectual and material riches, human beings, for the first time, can reasonably begin to think that life is something more than a grim struggle for survivals. But even today, in spite of the high standard of living, which has become general in the more fortunate West, the majority of people in the world still spend almost all their time and energy in an never-ending struggle with nature for the secure of food or shelter they need. A good example can be found in Beijing, the capital of China， where labor is more abundant than goods and, as a result, making a living is intolerably difficult. For the survival, millions of people have no choice but to work long hours for little pay, whether in restaurant or in factories, whether in corporations or in public sectors. If this example is accurate, as I believe it is, the implication is far-reaching. It might be reasonable to conclude that sometimes people has to do things that they do not like doing for their survival.

Second, people have to do things that they do not enjoy doing not only for their survivals, but also for their collective's interest. However competent you are, however experienced, it is very likely that you cannot cope with some problems. The strength of an individual is limited, but that of a collective is boundless. For the collective's interest, sometimes people have to make sacrifice. Our company witnesses and presents many concrete examples. Some have to take a long-term business trip because of oversea colleagues' convenience, and others have to learn a wide assortment of knowledge about foreign culture, custom, or languages in order to cooperate efficiently and effectively with diverse colleagues from different countries. Don't you think these examples quoted above very persuasive? Obviously, an equally important aspect is that people have to do things they do not enjoy doing for the collective's interest.

Last but not least, behind my view that sometimes people have to do things unfavorable lies the fact that literally all of us have to take social responsibilities. In China, no issue is more important than overpopulation, traffic jam, and pollution, which are already unfavorable now, and will probably become even more unfavorable in the future. They constitute permanent menaces to our society. To reduce the rush-hour traffic congestion and improve air quality, one may take public traffic rather than drive a car although driving a car is his or her favorite. Suppose what if all of us did what we liked doing without considering social responsibilities? Hence, the most striking conclusion is obvious that sometimes we have to do things that we do not enjoy doing because of social responsibilities.

In conclusion, it is true that we do have the right to choose the favorite things to do. However, due to the above mentioned reasons, including the individual survival, the collective's interest, and the social responsibility, which sometimes correlate with each other to generate an organic whole, we can safely reach the conclusion that people should sometimes do things that they do not enjoy doing.
