Great reference! But I feel that's not exactly what Ecclesiastes means .. because it seems you ignore the context and the rest of the Bible in this hypothesis: meaningless, vanity, this is what life without God, life focused only on the material, physical reality "under the sun" looks like: “1:14 I have seen everything that is done under the sun, and behold, all is vanity and a striving after wind.". That's what focusing on the temporary leads to. And even opening the New Testament, you can see Corinthians 4:18 "So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal." The message of the gospel is full with hope: it doesn't teach that "There is no point to life." and that life itself is meaningless .. as what is temporary, is not the important part of life at all. In this sense, most jobs is often focused on the temporary and we shouldn't idolize them, as it's sadly easy to addict to work. And of course: I think it's great to enjoy your job and to find fun in it, but to keep in mind it's just one aspect of earthly life, and not an ultimate goal. It's not something to "obsess" on. And "accomplishments" are a very subjective thing.
