#73 — Why do you do science?

Is it your passion, is it to make an impact, is it just the way you make your living, or something else?

Whatever the reason, having a clear sense of your purpose matters.

It can help you deal with major and minor challenges, cope with setbacks, and help you reflect on the professional success and value of your career choices to sustain your development.

Or perhaps you feel dispassionate about doing science. And if you do, is it just a temporary phase or a sign that your current role is somehow misaligned with what you want from life?

In this episode of The Happy Scientist, we'll explore how being clear on your reasons for doing science can make you happier, wiser, and better at it.
