Episode 3724:

David Cain explores the difference between the work we do for a living and the deeper, often neglected pursuit of our “life’s work.” He challenges readers to reconnect with what truly lights them up, work that may not pay the bills, but fulfills a core part of their identity and purpose.

Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.raptitude.com/2010/03/this-is-your-lifes-work/

Quotes to ponder:

"Your day job is not your life's work."

"If something keeps haunting you, there's probably a good reason for it."

"You know what your life’s work is. It’s what lights you up."
