Attitudes towards this question vary from person to person.

Gradually, we will consider wealth and fame as the most important things in our lives instead of the care of our parents, or our ‘Frie nds-time’. Besides, thiskind of thought might have bad effects on our work, since we onlycare about how much money we earn or how to get as many glories as we can, we may tend to forget the original significance of doing the joband can’t concentrate ou rminds on doing the job well.

In this case, although we don’t aim for wealth and fame, wealthandfame will follow naturally. If not, we will not feel discouraged, as we firmly believe that the happiness and fulfillment during the journey is the best reward for our work.Van Gogh sold only one painting during his life, but this didn’tstop him from completing over 800 paintings because he never aims to make money or get fame when he creates2new works.
