The work you do will significantly change when viewed through the lens of doing it so someone else is happy.
The work you do to make your boss happy is different work than you’d do to be proud of it yourself.
The work you do to win a client by making them happy is different work than you’d do to align with your values.
The work you do to make family happy is different work than you’d do because you’re passionate about it.
If you’re in the Happy-Making business, then maybe it works for you. But most of us aren’t.
Most of us are in the Change-Making business.
Stay Positive & We Make Change When We Do Things For The Right Reason
