Work that doesn’t use your talents is work you should have others do.
Work that doesn’t engage your passions is a dead end.
Work that doesn’t meet your needs, wants, and/or desires is martyrdom.
Work that doesn’t solve compelling problems for other people or organizations is a hobby.
Work that engages all four of these factors–talents, passions, needs/wants/desires, and compelling problems–is work in your SweetSpot. It is meaningful, fun, profitable, and rewarding.
Which is nice.
In your corner,
Mike
