The Work We Do...
Michael Gerber wrote “The work we do is a reflection of who we are…a mirror of how we are inside” and I think that is certainly true - the work I did in my corporate days and the work I do today are very different reflections of two very different versions of me.
But the interesting question is which has the greatest influence over the other, the work or the person inside ? Did the work I disliked lead to a person I disliked, or does growth as a person lead to more meaningful work ?
It’s easier to blame the work, but experience is teaching me that it’s better to take responsibility for the person…
