Humans were created on this earth to work hard in order to earn their livelihood. Humans are destined to be in a high position (noble) but that progress can only be achieved through perseverance and hard work. Every human conquest of nature is the result of the hard work done. Thus, after humans struggle seriously and in a long time then humans can achieve happiness in his life.

Humans really should strive to do and bear all the difficulties and hardships in their struggle to achieve progress. Because humans are required to fight and struggle to achieve glory in this world, he is made strong in physical terms to overcome life’s difficulties.

Humans are made to try to bear all the difficulties of life. Humans are given the strength to try to defend themselves from the hardships of life. Humans are given the strength and fortitude to withstand all difficulties due to working hard in the struggle to achieve victory and glory.

A happy life is guaranteed for those who work and do not waste time by just sitting still. Those who work hard for their lives will enjoy a safe and prosperous life. As for those who waste their time in silence will live a life filled with misery, hunger, and humiliation.

The only way to get something from nature is through hard work. Human progress and wealth from nature depend on business. The more serious he works, the more quality something (good wealth or achievement) he gets.

Nature does not recognize the difference between men and women, or blacks with white or believers and non-believers, each person is rewarded according to what they have done. Anyone who works hard will be rewarded, accordingly.

It is true that God gives His grace to humans, but He does not give it away. There are causes and processes. A person must be able to work hard or he will not get anything and if he tries, then the results will be obtained and he will get an adequate reward.

In other words, no one can prosper prosperously without real effort. Gradually if the individual shows a decline or inadequacy at work, God’s gift will be withdrawn and removed from this world. This is a universal law of nature that covers all spaces of life. Glory is only for those who work hard to satisfy their ever-increasing will.

There is no life filled with “happiness and gifts” without hard work. Humans should be able to work seriously to achieve a happy life. Because the difficulties will be followed by convenience (happiness).

“Always keeping yourself busy at work means you love life. To love life by working is to dive into the deepest secrets of life.” So said Kahlil Gibran. Then what is called “working with love?” Namely “you are uniting yourself with yourself, with other people’s selves — and to God.” Gibran said again. And he also illustrates the example of the best work that is when we build a house with great affection because it feels as if our lovers who will inhabit it. We spread the seeds with affection and pick up the harvest with joy because we feel that it is our lovers who will eat the fruits. And so on, so that “work is love that comes true.”
