The Life of John Donne | John Donne Biography

Biography: John Donne was an English poet of metaphysical school and cleric in the Church of England. He was born in 1572 into a recusant Roman Catholic family when practice of that religion was illegal in England and died in 1631 at the age of 59. He was the third of six children. His father died in 1576 when he was four. His mother Elizabeth Heywood was the daughter of John Heywood (the playwright) and sister of the Jasper Heywood ( a Jesuit priest and translator).

Framework for future

One of the biggest challenge is we don’t like our work but we are doing it because it’s bringing money, keeping us busy, helping us in a momentum to achieve something. The worst thing in a job is some of your heads won’t let you do an innovative work; either they won’t appreciate or would discourage you on the way to achieve it. How to deal with that problem??? The one I did was I quit my job to do the work I love for my living...What you think how to deal with that tell me in the comments box...
