Have you ever wondered what your mission in life is supposed to be?
You probably know people who seem to have had their entire life mapped out from the day they were born. You may have envied their sure sense of what they were born to do — their work, career, marriage, and personal goals. Read more . . .Click here.
We all go to work (if we have a job), but why are we there?
In a recent poll by Richard Florida where 20,000 creative professionals were asked what motivates them, sup rising the results provided the following answers:
1. Challenge and responsibility
2. Flexibility
3. A stable work environment
4. Money
5. Professional development
6. Peer recognition
7. Stimulating colleagues and bosses
8. Exciting job content
9. Organizational culture
10. Location and community
Why do you go to work each day? What motivates you?
Are you on a career path that motivates you?
After awhile……
You learn the subtle
difference between
holding hands and
chaining a soul.
You learn
that love
doesn’t mean
leaning and
company
doesn’t mean
security.
And you begin to learn
that kisses aren’t contracts
and presents aren’t
promises.
And you begin to accept your
defeats with your head held high
and your eyes open,
with grace,
and not grief.
You learn to build your roads on
today, because tomorrow’s
ground is too uncertain, and
futures have a way of falling in
mid flight.
After awhile… you
learn that even sunshine
burns if you get
too much.
So you plant your own garden and you decorate
your own soul, instead of waiting for someone
else to bring you flowers.
You learn that you really can endure and
that you really are strong.
That you really do have
worth and that you keep
learning.
