There is only one success — to be able to spend your life in your own way. ––Christopher Morley
When we operate in an environment that is most fitted to our unique individuality, we feel intrinsically rewarded. When we feel like a square peg in a round hole, we are unmotivated and tired all day.
Suitable work is more sustainable. It is where we belong. It is where we can thrive. Seek the work that provides a sense of fulfillment.
“Be true to one’s self, follow not every impulse, but find out who one is,” advised Earl Nightingale. “Discover a combination of interests and powers, and find through experiment and thought the course of life to fulfill those interests and powers most completely.”
If after many years you find work to be a dull chore, it is your duty to find new work. It is your obligation to slay your excuses.
You will not win in work unsuited to your true self. Ask yourself if you want to be the best in your field? Do you want to master it?
If you don’t want to be the best in your field, you’re in the wrong field. Change your environment. Move yourself. You’re not a tree!
W. Clement Stone said, “When you discover your mission, you will feel its demand. It will fill you with enthusiasm and a burning desire to get to work on it.” Suitable work is a requirement for winning big!
