Question: How can work for the Creator be by coercion, without pleasure?

Answer: It may not be the best, but if we can force ourselves to do something for the sake of the Creator even when we do not experience any pleasure, it is still considered bestowal—work to correct our desires.

I cannot force myself to have fun and be happy because I am doing some work. But if I still do it, then I am interested to know what I achieve as a result of doing it.
