Queensberry Connects


You define yourself by the work you do

The trouble with Seth Godin (I linked to him yesterday) is that once you start reading him it’s hard to stop.
Next day he’s talking about how, when you’re starting out … or you’re struggling … or the economy isn’t hot, it’s very tempting to “take what you can get”.

And that has consequences.

If you’re logged in there’s more about this on our website.

As if that’s not enough, his very next post says: “If there was ever a moment to follow your passion and do work that matters, this is it. You can’t say, ‘but I need to make a fortune instead,’ because that’s not happening right now. So you might as well join the people who can say, ‘I love doing this.’ ”

Cheers, Ian
