Feeling good and confident about the hard work you’re doing is like winning a jackpot lottery ticket.
I’d never say it doesn’t happen, but it’s rare and chances are likelier that you won’t feel that way than you will with your work.
The little voice inside your head that is making you uncomfortable about an idea you’re sharing or frustrated with the progress you’re making or worried about the impact it will have – all those are signals. That’s all. They’re not tangible and they won’t hold up in court (they probably won’t even hold up to your colleagues if you shared it with them).
All to say the job is on us to dance with them and understand that those signals are important to view as you being on the right path (as long as you view the right path as doing meaningful work).
Dance with them and you’re bound to win the lottery. Not the jackpot. But you’ll be with the millions that won because they played.
