How's work?

“Happiness comes when your work and words are of benefit to yourself and others.”

Buddha

“How’s work going?”

A question we answer time and time again to acquaintances, family, and everyone in the middle.

“Oh you know, it’s going.”

An answer that’s been said and used by thousands of people who are frankly in positions that lack substance.

When we tell others “It’s going.” — it emits a connotation of an occupation that lacks art, passion, a why.

Stability should be a situation to strive for but at the cost of your mental well-being?

There is no one correct career path — but seek a position that values your soft skills along with your hard skills.

A rule of thumb is to seek an environment where creativity is encouraged and your opinions are valued.

I made the news last Friday that I’ll be working on a project titled The New Green Book — it’s a resource that I aim to create value in communities all across the nation.
